HI,today was an errand day. I had to go up to the Hermitage and deliver 2 paintings for the summer display. The Hermitage is a very nice nursing home here on the Shore. Then I went over to Quinby to get some photos of the bridge buildings. I have a commission and I needed to check out everything. It was raining and I stopped the car mid road and leaped out and took photos until I saw another car coming. :) I even left the car door open. ha ha. I was just a few minutes and there was no traffic. I came home and have been working on my little landscape. The rain is soft and gentle just what we need for the gardens and fields. A good day to stay home and paint..well what day isn't a good day to paint. talk to you soon,Diana --ps.. I had a visitor coming down the driveway a delightful turtle so I went out and got some photos of him. He turned and headed into the trees. 
This is going to be lovely, I can see it now!
ReplyDeleteLove the turtle pose!
I live on a small pond/lake and my postage stamp size deck goes over the water..
I feed the fish and there are turtles of all kinds.. but my favorite is a small soft shell turtle. It has been coming every day for months. Do you think I should name him ??? lol ! BJ
Diana - it looks like you are off to a great start on your landscape - glad you are getting some rain - please - send me some - we need it desperately. Love your turtle - In Ohio we have the box kind as well as the snapping. I do not live far from a swamp area - so occasionally see them there. Take care and Happy painting.
ReplyDeleteHI BJ, Yes name him, sketch him,too!! Sounds beautiful there! Debbie , it sounds beautiful there too. Nature is so inspiring! Right today the hummingbirds are zooming in and out and it's nice outside. I'm going out and paint something in the porch. take care, love to you,Diana
