Painted from a setup in my studio.


”Oranges” 9"x12" (#2345) oil on linen canvas

Happiness may be a warm puppy, but it can also be three oranges set up on a blue drapery!

Edit: In 1967, when I was a senior in high school, I illustrated our annual with Peanuts characters. First, however, we had to obtain permission from the man himself, Charles M. Schulz, the creator of Peanuts. He graciously wrote back on his Snoopy stationery, allowing me to draw his characters for the yearbook! I have that letter to this day among my treasured possessions.

Have an amazing, productive day, my fellow Steemsters!

What an amazing treasure! I used to have a Woodstock plush toy as a child. My parents would often take me to the amusement park inside the Mall of America which used to be called Camp Snoopy.

It is indeed, @vermillionfox ! You're near Minneapolis I know... I've been there many times, being originally from Iowa (near Waterloo) and all. 🌽🌽 😎 Never been to the Mall, however. I'm not a shopper. LOL

Oh, you're not missing out! It's fun to visit once and then you'll be good. Malls really won't be around in the next few years. I laughed when you said 'you betcha' in another thread. Figured you must have been from the Midwest originally! 👍🏼🤣

Ha ha...it was a dead giveaway, huh? 😊

Love them, they have personality!

I grew them on my own orange tree, no less! Thanks @shaz

Very striking contrast, after a quick check I confirmed my thoughts............ orange is the opposite to blue on the colour wheel. (I had to learn a little colour theory when training to fix colour photocopiers back in the 90s) :)

The combination of orange and blue has been a definite fascination for me for many years. Thanks for commenting @eggmeister

I quite like orange and grey together ...................... but that's no secret ;)

Suddenly I felt an urge to eat some oranges !

really amazing to watch :D orange looks awesome

I love it that you're amazed! @blazing 😎

Simple...vibrant and it does make me happy to look at your painting. :)

Upvoted & resteemed

Very cool. Thanks so much! 😎

Nice bold colors... I'm no artist, but when I draw mandalas blue, orange and purple are among my favorites to weave together.

Much appreciated @reddragonfly Yes indeed...that would be a beautiful combination of colors!
