Two New "Retro" Still Lifes


As I'm preparing for the upcoming show in Saratoga, California, I've dug out some of the items that I've collected over the years and set up some still lifes.  They've been fun and I hope they're well received.  "College Humor" is an old magazine I've had in plastic for years, and "SmileS" is an old piece of sheet music that I'm afraid to open, as it is so fragile.  One of my artist friends suggested I open it now that the painting is done, and I asked her if I should get out my accordian, too!  Yes, I was one of those little girls in the fifties, who played the accordian......most people would probably not admit this...
