Eggplant and Ratatoiulle

Hi, I just framed this little eggplant watercolor for the Pignic Art Show tomorrow. I love the color of eggplants. I use ultramarine blue and permanent rose to make my deep purple and I threw in a brush full of cad.red medium and thalo blue. I love thalo. Just a very simple painting but it makes me happy. I then made ratatouille for me for dinner, J. doesn't like it. Eggplant, tomatoes,onions, peppers, garlic, all stewed down and luscious. take care and see you tomorrow/talk soon! Diana

Pignic Art Show

HI, yesterday's show was nice,the weather was nice, people came and went and enjoyed the wine and art.. and I did finish the cannas painting at 10:30pm the night before the show...then I framed it and crashed into the recliner. I put the purple leaf in to balance the composition and love the painting. Do you like it?? My next art show is this upcoming Saturday, September,4 at the Onancock High School, College Ave, Onancock,Va.The Pignic..Homemade Pork Barbecue is available at the show..This Show's proceeds benefit the renovation of the Onancock High School. Most of the artists there will be Eastern Shore Art League members. I have been a member for 32 years. I believe the show times are 12noon-7pm.. I hope to see you then. I've put a new gadget on the blog in the upper right hand to keep you updated on what show is coming up!!! talk to you soon, I'll go read and rest awhile--paint tomorrow.. Diana
