This month’s category is still life, the challenge is ‚A still life with tools‘. Have a rummage in your kitchen drawers, your garden shed or your toolbox and see what you can find. You may combine your choice of a tool or tools with other objects, but the tools must be the centre of interest.
As usual, every member may enter up to two paintings. Deadline is May 25.
Please consult the Get Dusty rules before you upload. Happy painting!
@Ruth Mann PGE, When the gardener's away...
Winner of the June 2011 Get Dusty

"My medium is pastel. I like the simplicity and immediacy. Pastels are pure pigment with a binder. The colors remain true over centuries. Within my art is the desire, to capture an ephemeral moment and preserve it with all its colors and shades of emotion."

Her artwork has been exhibited at the National Arts Club, Pastel Society of America Exhibit in New York, Albuquerque NM, Moro Bay CA, and the Aurora Art Center just outside Toronto Ontario.
