Coffee House #1

10"x 10"
acrylic on canvas

I hadn't seen my friend Beth since 5th grade (34 years ago!) until we recently reconnected on Facebook. She saw some of my art work posted on Facebook and asked if I would hang some in her new espresso and tea bar, Paradise Perks in Irvine, California. Beth has done a wonderful job of creating a beautiful and inviting neighborhood destination and I feel honored to be hanging my art there. Here is one of three paintings hanging in Paradise Perks and I plan to continue to add to the series but would like some help with names....for the series and the individual paintings. I would love to hear what you think!

Congratulations Annie! This is a wonderful painting and it is so cool that you were able to reconnect with a classmate. I will have to go by to see your work!
As a series you could call it "Life's Perks"...?

How fun to find an old friend and a place to display your awesome work! I love the shadows the most on this one. I also recognize this "pose" as you see many people with their computers open while on the phone when visiting coffee shops. Great painting!

Love those shadows!

Isn't the internet awesome in that way!? I love how it all worked out for you. Any business would be lucky to have your paintings on their walls.
