Do I keep Going ?? Ideas PLEASE!!!



Hi! The Eastern Shore Art League is having a member show. I have to paint 2 brand new never been seen watercolors for the show.(One of the rules..) I've named them.. 1. Autumn and 2. Memories. Thinking they can be anything .. because as of now I don't have a clue what they will be. I started the tractor painting the other day and have continued on with it... but I'm not sure if this is a possibility or not.It's from a photo of mine in Belle Haven,Va. What do you think?

I could just keep on going with it and see how it comes out.??? I've always loved to paint tractors especially old ones. To me they are so very honest and hardworking...I've also done some pouring in autumn like colors, Cad. Red, Cad Yellow, Opera, and Quinacrodone Burnt Sienna... I have a week and a half.. any ideas.. all are welcome..I"m out of ideas.. just like a grey fog in there.. totally..

Sadie is after a Grand Daddy Long Leg.. a spider with very long legs.. Here on the Shore legend goes that whatever you see a Grand Daddy Long Leg walk on you will get a new one..She swallowed it.

Hope you have a wonderful weekend. We are getting tons of rain.. which make the autumn leaves glisten. love to each of you,Diana

  1. Diana, you are going to be a most busy woman with all that painting! And if Sadie swallowed the daddy long-legs, does she grow another one inside??? :) :)

  2. Definitely keep going with that painting. I think it looks amazing and so interesting already! Why do dogs do such disgusting things? I can usually find one of mine with a nose in the back end of one of the others or licking things that make me shudder.

  3. Tractor yes! Beautiful painting.
    Love the couch
    Ideas...walk downtown, take a photo, paint (where there's a pumpkin in the picture).:)
    I was told Daddy Long Legs can give an unpleasant bite, but their mouths are too far under to grab hold. I hope Sadie doesn't get sick.

  5. I love the painting too-since you mentioned fog-how about putting the scene in a foggy setting?
    Love the sad-eyed doggie picture in the previous post! SO cute!
