Art on the Farm,Art Show



Hi, The show,Art on the Farm, was lovely. We had some problems with wind.(an outdoor show) Gusts up to 30 mph,but everything held on. I used 2 hooks per painting and hung the large ones on the bottoms of the rack, did some bungie cording and John attached two 25lb dumb bells to the bottoms of the racks too. I sold 5 little ones,2 chickens,a cow,a hummingbird and a mini landscape. Here are two paintings I finished the night before the show. Yes, I did.--I don't know why I do these things but I do... then framed about 5 paintings. I was silly to try to do the checkerboard painting-- it takes so much time.. Sadie,our puppy, was impatient -- she wanted more attention and kept pulling on my socks as I painted. :) I got it done.  John helped me set up and then went home to take care of Sadie and do his things. Saw so many friends,had Hog Island Coffee and Beth treated me to Chincoteague Mud Ice cream... looked like mud but tasted like heaven, chocolate fudge! Here's our Sadie still trying to get in the little chair. Hope you are having a great weekend. Happy Memorial Day! and Happy Weekend ! love to you,Diana

  3. Oh I do love the geraniums, Diana. They look amazing. I also love seeing Sadie trying to squeeze onto that chair. LOL We used to have a Bulldog that always climbed into the grandkids' car seats when they were babies. It was hysterical because he never stopped doing it even when he became too big for the seats.

  4. Dear Diana - your checkerboard is amazing. Imagine you working non stop at the last minute - makes me smile - especially to think of Sadie chewing on your sock while you finished up! Congratulations on selling some of your art - you certainly deserve it! Have a great Memorial Day.
