Summer Days

Long summer days sitting next to the garden - it seems so far away.
But really - summer is just around the corner.
Zinnia's, asters and bachelor buttons surround this frosted vase 
while to butterflies sit precariously on the flowers.

Peacock amongst the bright flowers



I do like peacocks - whether at the zoo or on canvas. 
Glass?
Why not - I am sure others have done it before.

My interpretation of a peacock sitting on a branch amongst the bright flowers.
 Hope you like it.



I wanted something really bright and bold.




Cyprus Ceramics and Glass



So, if you are following me - I live in Cyprus at the moment.
I bought these Cyprus dishes at the local market and decided to paint a set of wine glasses to go with them.



Then I found these great glass canisters at a store on the South side of Cyprus,
 painted them and added them to the set.



So, my table still seemed off - it needed something.
What about a vase to hold the beautiful blooms in.
Again, went searching for the perfect piece of glass to paint.

Here it is!




Turned out great - don't you think?
