Christmas Ornament SOLD

Christmas Ornament

About This Painting:

Ornaments take many different forms, from a simple round ball to highly artistic designs. Ornaments are almost always reused year after year, rather than purchased annually, and family collections often contain a combination of commercially produced ornaments and decorations created by family members.

I have many from my childhood that I truly treasure. Such collections are often passed on and augmented from generation to generation.It just would not seem like Christmas if I did put up the old special one that hold memories for me.

I am starting a new tradition for my family by giving each of my nieces a Christmas painting of an ornament like the one I have painted here that they can keep and display on a shelf when they are older.Each one will be different and something to remember Auntie Delilah by in years to come.

Radish All Alone

Radish All Alone

About This Painting:

History of Radishes, they probably originated in China, and made their way across Asia, into the Middle East, and thence into Europe.

Europeans introduced them into Central America around 1500; the British brought them to North America when they settled there.

The Egyptians and Greeks raised and ate Radishes. The Romans raised and ate many more varieties, including some that looked like our common round ones. They were certainly being grown in England by the 1500s, though probably much earlier.

European Radishes, it seems, used to be much larger in general, more like the Asian ones. There is no written record of the small ones until the 1500s.In France, Radishes would be served when you began a meal, to clean your palate and get it ready for the delights that were follow. In the same vein, Ben Johnson suggested eating a Radish before drinking wine.Now there is an idea. I think I will try it.

Hedge Apple

Hedge Apple

About This Painting:

As a kid when I walk the mile to school (up hill both ways) we used to use hedge apples for soccer ball kicking them back and forth across the road. Not much traffic in those days so good game of kick the hedge apple was a fun way to kill time while walking to school with little interruption. The hedge apple would get real milky and a little mushy by the time we got to school. If it got to nasty there were always more to be found growing along the road.

The use of the hedge apples for insect control is one of the most enduring pest management home remedies. Placement of hedge apples around the foundation or inside the basement is claimed to provide relief from cockroaches, spiders, boxelder bugs, crickets and other pests.

Swan Lake

Swan Lake

About This Painting: Swan Lake

Prince Siegfried arrives at his 21st birthday celebration on the palace courtyards to find all of the royal families and townspeople dancing and celebrating, while the young girls are anxiously seeking his attention. During the exquisite celebration, his mother gives him crossbow and informs him that because he is of age now, his marriage will be quickly arranged. Hit with the sudden realization of his future responsibilities, he takes his crossbow and makes haste to the woods with his hunting buddies.

Getting ahead of the group, Prince Siegfried finds himself a peaceful spot by an enchanted lake where swans gently float across its surface. While Siegfried watches, he spots the most beautiful swan with a crown on its head. His buddies soon catch up, but he orders them to leave so he can be by himself. As dusk falls, the swan with the crown turns into the most beautiful young woman he has ever seen. Her name is Odette, the Swan Queen. She informs the young prince that an evil sorcerer, Von Rothbart, who so happens to be disguised as Prince Siegfried’s mentor, has turned her and the other girls into swans and that the lake was formed by the tears of their parents' weeping. She tells him that the only way the spell could be broken is if a man, pure in heart, pledges his love to her. The Prince, about to confess his love for her, is quickly interrupted by the evil sorcerer. He takes Odette from Prince Siegfried’s embrace and commands all of the swan maidens to dance upon the lake and its shore so that the prince cannot chase them. Prince Siegfried is left all alone on the shore of Swan Lake.

The next day at the formal celebration in the Royal Hall, Prince Siegfried is presented with many prospective princesses. Although the princesses are worthy of his attention, he cannot stop thinking about Odette. His mother commands him to choose a bride, but he cannot. For the mean time, he satisfies his mother's request by at least dancing with them. While the prince is dancing, trumpets announce the arrival of Von Rothbart. He brings his daughter, Odile, on whom he has cast a spell to appear as Odette. The prince is captivated by her beauty as he dances with the imposter. Unbeknownst to Prince Siegfried, the true Odette is watching him from a window. The prince soon confesses his love to Odile, thinking that she is Odette. To Odette’s horror, she flees into the night. Prince Siegfried sees the real Odette fleeing from the window and realizes his mistake. Upon his realization, Von Rothbart reveals to the prince the true appearance of his daughter Odile. Prince Siegfried quickly leaves the party and chases after Odette.

Odette has fled back to the lake and joined the rest of the girls in sadness. Prince Siegfried finds them gathered at the shore consoling each other. He explains to Odette the trickery of Von Rothbart and she grants him her forgiveness. It isn’t long before when Von Rothbart and Odile appear in their evil, un-human, somewhat bird like forms. Von Rothbart tells the prince that he must stick to his word and marry his daughter. A fight quickly follows. Prince Siegfried tells Von Rothbart that he would rather die with Odette than to marry Odile. He then takes Odette’s hand and together they jump into the lake. The spell is broken and the remaining swans turn back into humans. They quickly drive Von Rothbart and Odile into the water where they, too, drown. The girls watch the spirits of Prince Siegfried and Odette ascend into the heavens above Swan Lake.

Red Golf Tee

Red Golf Tee

About This Painting:

The word tee is derived from the Scottish Gaelic word 'tigh' meaning house and is related to the house' in curling (the coloured circles). Of course, as the first golf tees were within a 'circle' of one club length round the hole, this would make sense. Thus, for example the ninth hole of a course is played from the ninth tee to the ninth green, and similarly for the other holes.

About This Painting:

M&Ms Chocolate - Forrest MarsForrest Mars invented the recipe for M&Ms chocolate during the Spanish Civil War. Mars saw soldiers eating pieces of chocolate covered with a hard sugary coating. The coating preventing the candy from melting in the hot sun. Forrest Mars received a patent for his manufacturing process on March 3, 1941.

When we were kids we would hold these little goodies in our hands as long as we could to see if we could get them to melt. If I remember correctly the color would come off on our hands requiring quit a bit of hand licking but the chocolate stayed safe in the hard candy shell.

Strawberry No.2

About This Painting:
Strawberry No. 2

The fragrantly sweet juiciness and deep red color of strawberries can brighten up both the taste and aesthetics of any meal; it is no wonder they are the most popular berry fruit in the world. Although strawberries have become increasingly available year-round, they are at the peak of their season from April through July when they are the most delicious and most abundant. I am so lucky to be able to buy them year round.
