Ooh la la… okay, that’s about the extent of my French language skills but none-the-less, I’m having a French inspired period right now. I have a French theme in my home decor and recently have been incorporating the same French theme into my paintings.
This is a painting I completed yesterday and as soon as it is varnished it will be available for sale. I’ve started on a whole series of ‘shelf’ paintings so expect to be seeing a few more of these in the coming weeks.
I was a bit hesitant about the pink as Kris is not a pink person, but I was matching the colours up to a swatch of fabric Kris has used in her sewing room. Kris tells me that the colours matched perfectly so that is a huge relief.
I sewed some of the embellishments directly onto the canvas which gave it a great 3D effect.

Hi Kerryanne, It’s such an inspiration to visit your studio on Tuesday nights and see what new treats you have on offer… I’m sure I must have left a puddle on the floor from where I drooled over your stunning French canvas! (Can I blame it on Gypsy?!!!) Vikki x

Good one on the birthday painting, Kerryanne, thank u for giving my mate so much joy! And French cakes a la patisserie (fancy=type baking from a shop!)gets my vote as well.
Anna Rosa Designs says
Oh Kerryanne I love your latest paintings.
The dessert painting is sooo soft, it would suit most decor and the painting for Kris at Tag along Teddies looks like the perfect personal gift.

First of all, the painting is lovely! Also, I am liking the 3-D elelments. I recently decided to start mixing paintings with collage type work and really like the effect.
