5x7 in Original Oil on Museum Quality Panel
Recently, I was reminiscing about my childhood Christmas' in Kentucky. A vivid image of a common decorative item can to mind - mason jar potpourri lights. Did anyone else have these? Well, I decided to do a little research on the most used (and addictive) home decorator's resource...Pinterest. And look what I found!
Now who remembers these?!?! I decided I would create a little different take on this oldie, but goody. I substituted one of my derby glasses (what Kentucky girl doesn't have a collection?) with a live red rose and green mint leaves. The old classic smelled really nice when the lights heated the potpourri. Could that have been a fire hazard? ...Sorry, rabbit trail... Anyway, my roses and fresh mint smelled like home as I was painting this still life.
Kentucky tradition coupled with a little Christmas sparkle.
