An Orange Cow in Watercolor--plus 2 ART SHOWS SAT! Holy Cow..

My newest cow original, 8x10, framed $99, she has the potato masher nose print.

HI ! Last week was busy. I had a class at ESO on Thursday and somehow the week zoomed by. This weekend we had Clay, our son, home for a visit. I always try to clean extra( I really need to clean extra always but paint more than anything) and cook things he likes. Like we all do when we have loved ones coming!! I made chicken salad, he loves that.

 I had to put brush to paper while he was here so I did a quick wash and then placed my potato masher on the wet wash, thinking nose. No other thoughts just nose. Can you see it on her nose?? I truly was getting sadder by degree as the day went on as I knew he was going back home so I think the painting picked up on it but I feel that makes it sorta endearing. Ha ha..Tell me what you think.

I've ordered frames this morning so I'm going to frame it for the Women's Club Art Show this Saturday, April 25, The show will be in Onley,Va. at the Women's Clubhouse and also they will be serving lunch and have gorgeous plants and we'll have 17 artists there displaying our work. 9am-3pm....

and another show that night. Norfolk Academy Art Show and Sale Opening, at Norfolk Academy in Norfolk,Va. from 6-8pm. I'm going to that too. I have 4 originals there. I'm going to be wiped out completely afterward. Please check the dates and times at right! Thank you , love to each of you,Diana

Potato Masher Imprint in Watercolor and Zen Puppy

Hi, We've spent most of the day outside. It's warm and sunny, so nice! I took my paint out and sat on the steps and Sadie played as I painted a little. Working on this little blue cow. Remember the potato masher.. here is the imprint as her nose!! Ha ha.. I couldn't help it.. It just seemed to fit the cow.  I've still got so many to frame for the show but that's ok, and with Sadie,it seems it's do it at  nap time or never.(It's nap time now.) I have to watch her or she gets into things. I will tell you she is very Zen. Yes... really, :). We have a very large wind chime hanging from a pine tree in my flower garden, she heard it chime for the first time today, sat down and listened..ears perked up. Later she did the same.. it was adorable.
