My Favorite Coffee Mug

I was painting with my daughter this weekend.  I always struggle when we paint together because she want me to paint something totally fantastical, and I want to paint something real.  Well, this weekend, I decided to paint what was in front of me.  My coffee cup.  Ok, it didn't turn out exactly like the real cup, but I think it came out nice anyway.

BTW, she painted a dog that walked over a tree that had fruit in it.  The fruit got all over the dogs feet and made tracks all over the paintings.

Yes, if you were wondering I did dip my brush in my coffee by accident.  But only once!

Enjoy

Top Dog Coffee Shop

Ok, here it is, the Top Dog Coffee Shop in Morro Bay.  Its right on Main Street.  I had a little harder time with this than the old truck.  I think it got started with the number of vertical lines I had to draw.  It followed through with the tables and chairs in front.  II think it came out pretty well but you will have to be the judge.
