For Sunday Smiles I am featuring the artichoke flower and an interesting fact on them.
Linking to Gillena's Sunday Smiles.
For Sunday in the Art Room (SITAR as Nicole says) I drew an artichoke flower for you ACEO (2 1/2" x 3 1/2") in acrylic and watercolour pencil. I have Nicole's new SITAR banner up in my sidebar!
Also sharing a few photos of my art supplies and where I do my art which is in my living room. I have no art room but the living room is sort of my 'area' where I spend the most time in my house besides the kitchen. You can see my trusty laptop.

Love your artichoke flower.
Your living room art space looks so cozy and inspiring, and ten years of ACEOs is amazing—thanks for sharing your creative corner!
It's lovely to see the artichoke blossom and your painting to go with it.
It's great to see your workspace; you've made it so cozy, and I recognize those boxes from my own experience—you accumulate quite a lot over the years.
Have lots more fun with your creative pursuits!hugs Elke
It’s fun to see where you do your art. The artichoke has a pretty bloom, I also enjoy eating them, especially good in salads. That’s very nice artwork of one.
The blooming artichoke is really pretty.
I smile at your thisle painting
Happy Sunday
Thank you for linking to SundaySmiles
Much love
Il fiore di carciofo ha un colore bellissimo e il tuo disegno è venuto benissimo
It was so cool to see where you create your art, Christine. You are talented, indeed. Blessings!
I did not know that about the artichoke, love your painting-and enjoyed seeing your art space Happy Sunday
I never knew they had such a nice flower!
Good for you. I ought to be inspired, but I'm feeling lazy in this cold.
Awesome art! Lovely post!
WOW! These artichoke flowers are gorgeous. Honestly, I didn't know what they looked like until now. This is very interesting. I love art <3
Best regards, and I invite you to see my new painting :)
...Christine, you sure have been prolific!!!
I didn't know artichokes produce beautiful flowers like that! And your ACEO of it is wonderful! Thanks for showing us your art set-up and supplies too -- a great space to make art in!
I did not know that about artichoke flowers. They are really pretty. And like you, my laptop sits on the coffee table. I sometimes do art in the living room too, but not painting. I make too much of a mess.
So great to see where you do art! You are a wonderful artist. Thanks for being so inspiring!
Love this. All the best to your passion. Thanks for the post!
First off since I grow artichokes I did know this fact. However, your art piece of the artichoke is excellent. That is exactly how they grow. I love your living room. It looks so cozy and the perfect place to create. You know how much I enjoy seeing art spaces. Very nice indeed. Thank you so much for joining Sunday in the Art Room
Your artichoke flower is beautiful! Thanks for sharing your art space, it's lovely!
oh cozy space!! I also take my art to my living room sometime because it can feel cozy and lovely. I love your artwork. Wonderful and thank you for your visit to my blog. I appreciate it Christine. Have a lovely Sunday!
The artichoke flower turned out beautifully, lovely work!
The problem with artichokes is that as the flower develops the leaves become tough and spiney, so the pre-flower choke is much better to eat. The plant belongs to the thistle family which explains the thorns. I do like the flavor.
I do like your artichoke flower.
Many thanks for sharing your living room art space.
All the best Jan
Lindo dibujo. Me gusto conocer más de ti. Te mando un beso.

I didn't know that about artichokes. 😊
I didn´t know about the flower! Nice to see your artspace. You´re as "lucky" as me, huh?
Thank you for sharing interesting information about stunning flower my friend
I think you have lovely art area and great art supplies 👍♥️
I loved to see where you do your beautiful art, Christine.
In some gardens around here I sometimes see the flowering artichokes. They are truly amazing.
That looks great Christine and nice supplies too. I do some crafting and have them in a storage unit with wheels. Got a few of the units :-D
