Owls and Lady in Blue




HI, Well it's been an eventful week. Harvest Festival, Wednesday, was nice, lots of friends, food and a few sales for everyone. Thursday, yesterday was the birding festival and that was nice, not so many people but good friends and a wonderful bird show, I've posted a couple of the photos of the great horned owl and the barred owl.

Here is my new watercolor"Lady in Blue". I took this photo a few years ago of this lady who works at Maplewood Gardens near Nassawadox,Va., here on the Eastern Shore. The Eastern Shore Art League was having a paintout there. Barbara Custis was kind to have us there swimming in her pool, painting and everyone brought a dish to share. A lovely day.Wet paint at the bottom of her feet.. I finished it Tuesday. No I didn't paint anything today.. I'm too wiped out!

I will not be at Harborton Town Festival this year.( Go anyway if you can to support them) I hope you understand, my back is not good and I have done way too much this week.. I really need to rest up.. my next show will be next weekend at Art Affair in Richmond, Saturday Oct.16 from 10am-5pm and Sunday Oct 17 from 11am-4pm. This is a juried show with about 130 artists. Hope to see you then. Talk soon. Diana

  1. Diana, hope your back gets to feeling better. We always tend to overdo...
    speaking of overdoing.. just looking at your last painting. Lady in Blue? I am more and more convinced that less says it all. ! I love this rendering...

  2. Glad to hear that Harvest Fest went well; too bad about the lack of folks at the Birding Festival. Sorry we are missing some of the eastern shore events this month, but we are having lots of adventures in Maine. Hope your back gets a rest soon.

  4. Is there anything you don't paint? I love the colors and how the poured paint captures her essence. Good work.
