Debra Plays The Piano-New Original Painting

Classical piano was the soundtrack of my childhood.  My sister’s and I  all took a turn with lesson but only one of my sisters really had the interest and gift. She practiced and played for years and years and went on to pursue music in college.  

I love to include pianos in my paintings. This piece is painted with acrylics on birch wood cradled panel. The sides are painted and it's wired and ready to hang. Thanks for looking. www.catherine47.etsy.com

 

The Piano Lesson

Leo our new kitten is making it difficult for me to get things done but I managed.  This is my new painting. Meet Margret , (Leo is on top of the piano) she is waiting for her lesson to begin but her teacher seems to be late.  Maybe he is lost in the topiary garden?  This painting is 11x14 painted with acrylic on stretched canvas.

Sonata

This painting measures only 5x7 on stretched gallery wrapped canvas and needs no framing. The piano is my favorite instrument maybe because one of my older sisters was quite a pianist. I grew up listening to her practice for years. No matter what I was doing homework, talking on the phone you could hear the classical notes start and stop in the background. I often include pianos in my paintings. I love the lines of a baby grand.

The Music Room

At some point you have to say a painting is done even though you could continue. This was one of those paintings. I have loved it all along but at the same time something was missing. After putting it back up on the easel Monday, I can say now that I feel it is done.
