A Still Life

                                                            Eggplant and tomato

                                                                 from Bob's Garden 

While waiting for Henre to hit Long Island, I did a little watercolor sketch of the eggplant and tomato from Mike's friend Bob's garden.  We were all set for the harsh affect of the hurricane.  We lucked out, hit land fall in Connecticut.  So thank goodness we were very fortunate to be spared. 

I am thinking about doing this in gouache or acrylic.

What I love about blogging is keeping a diary of what has been painted during the week. It is so easy to sketch or paint and just put in heap somewhere in the art room.  This way it is a way of reminding me that I have been fairly productive.  More importantly, doing what I love.  Happy Painting everyone. Thanks to my friends Jo and Joan for the inspiration.

Mike and I took a ride out east on Monday.  We found UPick blueberry farm. The pickings were slim but it was wonderful being out and about.  I did a quick watercolor sketch on location , took some photos and did this acrylic painting at home.  Feels so good to out and about.  Happy Painting everyone.

Trying to add to my blog. Well had to switch to the classic design.  I cannot add my favorites with the latest design.  I will find a way to contact other bloggers.  It is Sunday morning and I still have to get dressed.  I think this is a new way to procrastinate.
