OCTOBER and NOVEMBER GIFTS

 Olivia
 Scotty
 and Annie,  they live the next acre over.
they and we had so much fun!
they picked out one or two pumpkins, then ended up taking them all...
including the rest of the carrots in our barrel.
They are dolls!
 
 
 
 
 my next finished project on a cupboard door I sanded down,
then painted black...sooo DRAMATIC that color BLACK!
I never thought I would ever use it much, let alone as profusely..
I LOVE THAT BLACK!
 
 
 
 
 these next 5 photos show the painting up close
so that we can see some of the words I used
and maybe an idea of the texture throughout...
 
 
 
 




 16" X 30"
Cupboard Door
 
 
 
 
 Next up: this is a photo from my own art journal.
I landed another commission.
it is a 3' x 5', the largest I have ever painted.
They want something along these lines...
the girl, the hat, the texture and flowers...
 
 
 
 
 so I proceeded to do a quick painting, close to the one above...
simply to see if I still "got it"
I like her better than the first...
I have already begun the process...
such an EXCITING ENDEAVOR...
always LEARNING and LOVING it!
 
 
 
 
 this is my favorite time of year to photograph the sky
this was one day...
THE MOON
 THE SUN
FINAL SUNDOWN
 
 
I hope this finds all my friends heading for some THANKFUL times near the end of NOVEMBER
