Pizza night at our place... or, rather, pizza afternoon!
We're retired, we eat when we're hungry ;D)
So, high on pizza, I decided to draw ours.
It's a fast paint and, ok, it does look like a "Floating Pizza" lol, but it was fun to do and that's always the main thing isn't it:

Click on the icon below and pop over and join the happy artists at Eva and Kristin's Paint Party Friday blog... to have a look or to share what you've created recently.
Before I close, I'd like to send supportive thoughts to fellow Aussies up in Queensland... not only have you had to endure fires, then floods and but also looters while people have had to evacuate!! Thankfully, police have today charged a man in connection with up to $80,000 worth of looted goods.
Still not finished, a cyclone is currently bearing down on their coastline.


Your pizza looks great, and now I am getting hungry....Sorry to hear about the bad luck in Queensland, it's so awful that people rob those unfortunate ones to add more sorrow. Really disgusting. Happy PPF, hugs, Valerie
ReplyDeleteoooh it tasted yummy too Valerie. It's been a while since the last one ;D)

ReplyDeleteπ thanks Shez and, yep, that pizza seems to be 'catching' ;D)
Deletedefinitely put the old karma to work with the likes of them... grrrr.

It's unfortunate how some people tend to make a bad situation worse by manipulating it for their own desires. Your pizza looks tasty, though.
ReplyDeleteit is John - greedy people.
Deletethanks, it was ... and we have a couple of leftover slices in the freezer now too :D)
Luv pizza haven't had one in a long time though. Yours looks yummyπ
ReplyDeleteHappy PPF

DeleteAHHH Pizza, it is my favorite. YUM! Your pizza painting is great. MY prayers go out to the people in Queensland! Enjoy your day, have a great weekend ahead!
ReplyDeleteWe enjoyed this one too thanks Eileen... thin and crispy crust :D)
DeleteSo sorry to hear about Queensland, I know Arizona in the States is being battered by a huge storm. Your pizza looks delicious!
ReplyDeleteyes, the weather world-wide is causing lots of problems.
Deletethanks re pizza Christine π
What a lovely inspiration! We do the same thing, eat when you are hungry!
ReplyDeleteI'm so sorry for the mess out there. We're under 30 cm snow.
All of you are so inspiring! (γ) from Cottage Country Ontario , ON, Canada!
it's nice not having to stick to a schedule anymore isn't it.
Deletewow, 30 cm of snow - it's crazy all the extra snow that's falling over there.
cheers now Jenn :D)
Great idea! Your pizza looks delicious. It seems that no matter where we live, we have some weather elements to deal with. This is our gorgeous season in FL, if you can ignore the mayhem the people seem to create. Happy PPF
ReplyDeletethanks Susan... luckily I put leftovers in the freezer - we may have even had a pizza brekky!! lol
Deleteyes, the weather is changing to be of extremes these days
Such a happy, colorful and delicious painting...I'll take a slice please :) Love it!
ReplyDeleteSo sorry to hear about the troubles of those poor souls in Queensland~
Big Hugs xoxoxo
ok... lol, keep an eye out in your post - some slices on their way ;D)
Deletethanks for popping over Jan π
Wonderful colors! Have a nice weekend
ReplyDeletegreat and thanks Anne, shall do and you too :D)
Deletei think the pizza looks like a yummy pizza on a beautiful, colorful tablecloth!! we too are kind of retired, but not really...but our eating habits have changed. we eat early, dinner is at 3 pm and peeps make fun of us but i don't mind!!
ReplyDeletei am still trying to figure out the toppings you had on your pizza!! hehehe
thanks Debbie, it's always real nice to eat and sleep whenever you want... cosy :D)
Deleteah now, toppings... ok... the red bits are capsicum, the brown bits are mushroom pieces (the way I've drawn them is a tilt to hubby who left them huge when he chopped them lol), the lighter brown bits are onions and then some crumbled fetta, and then assorted pepperoni and salami slices covered in melted cheese!
Great.
ReplyDeletethanks Regine π
DeleteI love the pizza drawing (i now want pizza for dinner) and the tablecloth is so cute. Didn't know how bad it is in Queensland - hope all that is going on ends soon and life returns to normal for them.
ReplyDeletethanks Sandy... I just went with it and enjoyed doing it, still with the taste of it in my mouth ;D)
Deleteyeah, those poor Queenslanders... can't take a trick at the moment
La pintura se ve muy bien. Espero que pronto se recupere todo. Abrazos para ti y Queensland.
ReplyDeleteTranslation: "The painting looks very good. I hope that everything will recover soon. Hugs for you and Queensland."
DeleteThanks very kindly for your lovely thoughts Teresa :D)
Your pizza looks great. Sorry to hear about the troubles in Queesland. The same thing happens here in the US. Some people are just heartless.
ReplyDeletethanks Nicole :D)
DeleteYep, some people certainly are... and then, thankfully, lots aren't π
Love your pizza and colorful cloth too!
ReplyDeleteWhat a shame that not only do these people have to deal with natural cause losses but looting as well:(:( Hope authorities are able to keep away other looters or catch them and haul them away. happy PPF!
thanks very much Linda.
Deleteyes, the police are on the job... for sure :D)
Your pizza is tempting me to order some later, it looks delish! I'm sorry about what's going on. The weather has been intense with climate destabilization...
ReplyDeleteaha, yes, do it Lisa... pizza is good :D)
Deleteso true, the weather needs a good talking to ;D)
Delicious! Not just the pizza but the painting. Love your style and the way you use colour.
ReplyDeletethanks Vicki, it was ... the dough has made the difference ;D)
Deletethanks re painting, it's a funny little thing and yes I do love using colour xx
Pizza night for us too, and our daughter's first ever taste of pizza (she's almost two and really wanted to try what we were eating). No surprise that she loved it! Happy PPF!
ReplyDeleteit's always a tasty easy meal isn't it...
Deleteisn't it cute watching our littlies trying things for the very first time :D) thanks for your thoughts π
During a storm it usual best to stay dry and have a nice warm pizza.
ReplyDeleteCoffee is on and happy art
exactly... sounds like you've had a lot of snowstorms over there ! cheers now :D)
DeleteIt's good. The tablecloth looks pretty. :)
ReplyDeletethanks Tarang... I don't keep to the rule of painting - as in "make only one thing the focus"!
Deletekeep painting :D)
Isn't that fun. xx
ReplyDeletethanks Lin... glad you enjoyed it too :D) π
DeleteThis is a real happy Pizza painting Sue. I love the snazzy background.
ReplyDeleteHappy PPF Hugs Tracey xx
thanks Tracey, it was a quickie... but a fun one, often the best kind!
Deletelovely of you to drop in, enjoying our art together π
Did you really stop to paint the pizza before eating it?
ReplyDeletenah Joan... I was "high" on pizza when I painted it (took photos before hand) lol :D)
Deletefun is good! Love your pizza even if it made me think of a clock,
ReplyDeleteRe Queensland, My granddaughter arrived to Townswill a week ago. She will be studying a Masterclass in Marine biology. The area was still wet when she arrived. I was in Queensland a few years ago on a birding trip and know all about fires and floods from then. Of course I told my grandaughter about it. She will live right in the middle of it for a couple of years,
yes Monica, I could go with it looking like a clock - we can each see something different in a painting, that's why I always love to be told when that happens so, thanks :D)
DeleteAs you know, your granddaughter will be in a most beautiful part of our country as she studies. Like most places those extreme weather events come and go... she'll have a wonderful time for sure and perhaps you have a very good reason to make another trip to Aus :D) π
I have always loved Australia. We learned about your country in third grade and it has been a dream of mine to visit someday. My heart and prayers go out to those who have had to endure such terrible things--and as the cyclone grows closer. I also LOVED your painting of pizza. Made me hungry!
ReplyDeleteI hope you do come Beth - and when you do I hope that as well as cities you're able to visit the regional areas, coastal and inland and perhaps some of the outback... that way you get to see the real Australia :D)
DeleteThanks for visiting and for your kind words π
pizza is good but those ladies and your commentary are excellent!!! I like your style! Leeanna at not afraid of color (who paints, quilts and sometimes quilts her paintings)
ReplyDeletemany thanks Leanna, appreciate that :D)
DeleteI so love your pizza paining, Sue! It looks very appetising. The tablecloth is fantastic. What a fun sketch :)
ReplyDeleteI am very happy to hear that you were not affected.
-Soma
thanks Soma - it was fun... done on a (pizza-full) tummy ;D) cheers!
DeletePizza π is looking delicious.:)
ReplyDeletethankyou... it was :D)
DeleteSuper pizza. I love a piece of pizza!
ReplyDeletethanks June... always nice aren't they!
DeleteLooks good enough to eat and I like the tablecloth.
ReplyDeletelol, that's nice of you, thanks Linda :D)
DeleteLove your pizza Sue, and the colourful table cloth :)
ReplyDeleteMy thoughts go out to all those people who are dealing with the terrible weather in Queensland. I hope they do catch the looters, what a terrible thing to do ...
All the best Jan
Hi Jan and thanks :D)
DeleteOh, what a tempting pizza you've managed to paint!
ReplyDeleteThinking about the Queensland people, and wishing them better times!
Weather trouble everywhere in the world, and that, unfortunately, brings about criminality too.
Thanks Duta, it was a spur of the moment paint but then those kind are the best fun. It was tasty in real life too :D)
DeleteSue looking at your pizza made me want a piece. Great job. Sorry to read about your fellow Aussies...the weather has certainly been challenging everywhere. Take care and have a wonderful weekend. Hugs
ReplyDeleteThanks Debbie :D)
DeleteYes, the weather is bizarre now
Wonderful pizza Sue. The fires and weather have certainly been terrible. It seems the weather is changing for the worst everywhere around the world.
ReplyDeleteHugs Diane
Thanks Diane :D)
DeleteOh my goodness, I am so sorry to hear what the people in Queensland are having to go through. My heart goes out to them. It is always a sad state of affairs when you hear about looting also, adding to the grief of having one's house burned down or rifled through when evacuated.
ReplyDeleteOn a happier note your painting of the pizza is lovely and makes me want to have one for our next meal :)
Hi Denise, such bad things can happen ... yes, and it's sad.
DeleteThanks re the pizza, I like to escape in painting :D0
Terrible for those people and animals. Last day of summer and really don't feel like we've had a summer if I'm honest. Only a few hot days here in Maleny (for which I'm very thankful). Your cheery pizza is very uplifting Sue. Here's to a safe Autumn for us all.
ReplyDeleteHi Sandy, reading about what others have in the way of heat, I'm thankful too - only a few stinkers ... having a run of 30C at the moment but keep telling myself... its not as bad as the 40C days - be grateful ;D)
DeleteThanks re pizza and, yes, your thoughts exactly re Autumn!
Great pizza, Sue, and I love the "checked tablecloth", very colourful. A Pizza is an unusual painting subject, I love it.
ReplyDeleteOur weather is nuts here too, it has been really warm, but happily it is misty and cold today, the "right" weather for February in the U.K.
Meant to say - I love your new header with the ladybird marching along. I hope it is new and not one you have had for weeks and I haven't noticed, haha!
DeleteThanks Sheila... lol, I wanted to enter something in PPF and pizza seemed good ;D)
Deleteappreciate your kind words.
my headers don't stay up for long! thanks, it's a digital arrangement I made from a square card - cheers and enjoy your weekend
I love this! It is so colorful and fun, as you say! I am sorry to hear of all the bad weather and natural disasters! I wish the best for your friends and family!
ReplyDeletehello Gloria and thank you kindly for your lovely thoughts. Nice to see you :D)
