Whoever can guess closest to the answer to my question, I will send you the sunflower painting shown in the post below! Yay! It would make a great gift to remind someone of summer time. And if you want, I can frame it in the color of your choice!

Okay, here's the question:
How many oil paintings I have done in my life?



(hint, I've only been oil painting for a couple years, and I don't do them that often)

I will only count your first guess, so search my blog, and answer carefully. :)

Contest?

I have discovered that painting small takes a lot longer then painting big. One of the reasons for this being it's incredibly hard to find a brush small enough in my teacher's art studio :) Here are two paintings that I have done this past month.

 On several blogs I have seen people do giveaways and contests to make things more interesting for their readers. And since it is too hard to ship baked goods, I would like to give away the 5'' by 7" Sunflower as a prize to someone, but I can't think of a contest to do in order for one of my readers to win it. Maybe a riddle or a challenge of some sort.

Any ideas?

(I have already given away the iris painting)

Praise the Lord for Church family and repeat costomers

I made this for our church fall festival. It was the second time that I had used fondant on a cake. None of the stores around here had a pumpkin shaped pan, which is strange since it is harvest time. A bunt pan served the purpose well, after I cut out the small bumps out in between the larger ones.



This was such a cute idea, I just had to do it! These were the same people that I've made a cake for before, it was for their granddaughter Kennedy, she's turning 3 years old.  And the only reason that most of the purple circles are empty, is because I ran out of icing! :) The cake is completely covered in fondant, and the decorations are done in royal icing.
