Since the picture on Face Book (right side) was taken a year ago on my birthday, I believe I will leave it as is and not update picture tomorrow. Why? Because I think they said possible snow tonight. I will not sit out there like that tomorrow.
Here is my bouquet of roses. Pen ink and colored pencil.
I received a picture from Michigan from my sister which showed all that was left of the farm we grew up on. I was sad but decided to paint it. As I worked on the painting my mood changed because it brought back many many good memories. The barn is full of holes, sagging a bit but then that happens even to people, so I will enjoy this and may put it on Christmas cards for my family. Enjoy!!!
I also issued a challenge to the WWAO group to paint their home place. It has been accepted.
Update: I woke up at 2:30 this morning and knew I had forgotten something on my painting. I was right I forgot to high light trees, so I then did it. I decided to name it "Faded Memories".

I shall also insert a picture of Janie on that special day.
I hope you enjoy and don't forget to rate "Janie"...
When I finished this painting, my husband looked at it for about 15 min. and then stated, " you will have to name it Ghost falls". So it was named. Then several months later my friend was looking at it and stated that she saw two horses running though the water. And so it goes. Now everyone is trying to find something else in the picture.. So check it out and see what you see.. Enjoy!!
Just did my first digital painting. Hey!! I don't have any paint on me... It was actually fun. I had tried other programs and everything turned out in squares. I love this program and will spend more time getting it down pat.. It's been a long time since I had seen the Northern Lights, but can still remember that I was afraid of these strange lights in the late summer sky. You ask, "How long ago?" Lets just say the reason I seen them was because the farm had an outhouse, and that was one long path to get to it. Owls hooting, strange lights in the sky, believe me I could really run fast.. If you wish to make comments, you can at the bottom..
Now, my Bonsai project, I have several branches wired and a lot of prickers in my fingers.. Still have several branches and some trimming to do.. Then you will see the picture..
