The marvelous Karin Jurick posted a photo at her newest blog,Different Strokes From Different Folks , a community of artists working from the same reference photo each week. Its a blast to see all the choices that get made, so stop in and see them.
The title for my version comes from my husband (who is responsible for many of my best titles!). He was referencing not the newspaper, but the way we view older people in our culture. Sad, in a way; on the other hand, what a lovely way to start your morning with a newspaper in the sun and a bag of what? Bagels? Jelly doughnuts? at your side!
** I just got a note from my daughter, the one who inspired the Keyboard painting. She informs me that the bag is filled with oranges. Hmm. Delicious and healthy, but I think I still prefer jelly doughnuts. With powdered sugar.

Hey, nice job! I noticed this one right away when it went up on Karin's site, but when I came to your site to tell you I liked it, you didn't have it up here!
See you next week....
Thanks Carol - the delay in posting was because of other things going on, and I made a couple of small changes to the painting. I had so much fun with this one of Karin's - I can't wait to see what comes up for this week, and what everyone does with it!
Hi Terry, I saw your painting on Karin Jurick's blog and had to come see the rest of your work. Your paintings are lovely, you have a wonderful way of handling paint. And I love the board with all the keys, how clever!
Maybe this week I'll paint Karin's photo, depends on what it is. :P

Lovely painting! I think there are fresh chelsea buns in the packet. Nothing better than a fresh chelsea bun!
What a small little blogging world we live in! I love when my social networkings come full circle! Saw you were mentioned on Chris Becks blog clicked on your link and saw this beautiful painting you posted that I had just finished looking at on Karin Jurick's blog!
Whew! So fun to know that we are all connected in some way!
Nice work!
Paz, thanks as always!
Robyn - I've never had a Chelsea bun, what are they like? (I love anything baked!)
Jennifer - What fun connections we all get to make - and isn't Chris's work wonderful?
Hi Terry!
Your paintings have great brushstrokes and a lovely blend of colors!
