This little painting is a companion to the croquet mallet and balls that I posted earlier this week. I pulled out three colorful croquet balls from the arrangement on my coffee table. This 6" x 8" oil painting was fun to do...it is colorful, simple and fun. Thanks for viewing this blog....Have an artful weekend!
This is a 6" x 8" panel I painted soon after the Carol Marine Workshop. I liked the placement of the objects; a mallet, a post and a ball...all out of an old and worn croquet set that we have in the garage. We have some interesting and rather old croquet balls...most of them do no belong in a set, but ones that have been collected over the years. I have more croquet balls than mallets, so I display all the balls in a big bowl on a coffee table in the den. This painting reminds me of all the yard games we use to play when I was growing up in the midwest. Thanks for viewing! Have an artful day.
