Lost Buttons 6x6 inches Oil on Canvas Panel by George De Chiara Click here to bid. Opening bid just one cent! I have to admit, I know very little about sewing. I know you have to put the thread through the needle, but that's about it. The few times I've had to sew on missing buttons, I almost always had to have my wife fix them for me. She and my mother-in-law are the sewers in the family. Since my wife and I share our studio space, I see a lot of sewing equipment all the time. I just love these little wooden spools of thread she has. I like to think of them as stringy tubes of paint with irresistible color. Every now and again, I like to take out some of them and use them in my still life paintings. They are a treat to paint since I hardly ever run into these colors in anything else To see a complete step-by-step demo of how this painting came to life visit my blog here.
