Our Lab,Sadie's New Watercolor Portrait

Sadie's new watercolor portrait by me.

HI ! Thursday, I started painting Sadie as a demo. for class. When I got home I had to work on it and I had her to go by. I think this is finished. I just don't want to do a dark background and this one is for me .  This is the photo of her with the arches watercolor paper in her mouth.

The weather here has been gorgeous, and with the rain earlier we have wild mushrooms popping up everywhere. Sadie and I have been wandering in the woods this morning. I was looking and admiring the different colors and kinds of mushrooms. I found a "Man in the Woods" mushroom that is black and furry. So many colors and sizes but I won't eat them. I don't know mushrooms well enough. Sadie, doesn't pay any attention to them, thank goodness. Remember last year she was eating them, but she was very tickled to find a box turtle and then of course she rolled in a very horrible smelly I don't know what. 

Hope you are having a delightful weekend. love to each of you,Diana

The pizza was good.. and I made 2 so guess what's for supper tomorrow night. take care and talk soon, Diana
