#75-#78 4/8/19 Tiny Easel Paintings

I was off work today, so I made a list of everything I wanted to get done.....one of those things was the 4 tiny easel paintings.  I'd had my fill of food paintings, via the magnet paintings.  I'd seen tiny easel paintings before, and they were tiny reproductions of famous artwork.  Well, I didn't want to do that, but I realized that if it's going to be placed in a spot of significance like an easel (even a tiny easel), it should be something a bit more "special" than a red pepper.  I felt a bit bad about my school of fish being drawn from a picture I found via google, like I had stolen something.  So I looked for free photos and somehow ended up on a website called "pexels".....looked for another school of fish, and found 8 more photos that I thought looked "paintable".  I used two today, the sunset boat and the clown fish.  The seagull is cropped from a photo I took in Key West.  The French Bulldog is a photo I took a few weeks ago from when I clicked on one of those articles on a default internet news page, something about good dog breeds.  The cute breeds that looked paintable, I downloaded their pic....stolen?  I don't know the rules on that if you're just painting them...
