~The Goldfish Bowl ~Paintings by Richard Edward Miller, Thomas Benjamin Kennington, John Edward Millais

Hi everyone and welcome. I hope you are all safe and well. 

The other day as I was looking at paintings online, I kept coming across paintings featuring goldfish!  I saved a few to share with you. If I had a favorite it would be the first one. Of course the last picture of the girl in the apricot colored dress is a close second.

Richard Edward Miller (American painter, 1875-1943) 

Thomas Benjamin Kennington

A British artist who painted people in vastly different circumstances. Paintings of street children, beautifully dressed women and even a portrait of Queen Victoria. 

'Leisure Hours' Artist John Edward Millais

A Bit of Lavender and Violet. 19th and Early 20th Century Paintings Of Women

Hi everyone! Welcome to one and all.

The beautiful paintings by Frank W. Benson and  Hamilton  Hamilton were my inspiration for today's theme.   Pictures of woman dressed in many different shades and hues of purple.

.  During my search for additional art work I discovered several artists that were new to me. Paintings by all of them will be in future posts for sure. Many more treasures to share! 

Your comments are most welcome. I read and appreciate everyone of them.

Remember to create something beautiful today!

Much Love as always, Louise
