I was getting to a point of throwing in the towel on this painting. I'm still not totally happy with it. The paint got a bit granulated in the sky. That sky has been a real pain for me on this painting. But, This morning I had an epiphany! The Full moon has been effecting our weather, as well as my mood. Yeah, I admit it! My mood! ha ha. The moon has been in my face all week...so why not put it in this sky! It seemed to balance the painting quite nicely. This sure is a learning piece...that's for sure!
At this point, I don't know whether to call it done or not. It seems to need to sit for awhile.
Today I received news that my watercolor "If walls could speak, Fort Knox" was accepted into the Art2010 15th annual juried show at the Harlow Gallery, Hallowell, Maine. The exhibit dates are May 7-30, 2010 and an opening celebration and awards Ceremony is on May 7, 5-8pm.
May 1st is the opening of the Project Puffin Center, where I have a watercolor "Family flight, Common Eiders" in their Gallery Exhibit "Sea birds". They are open until October and will have the art there throughout the Summer. The Center is on Main Street, Rockland, Maine.
May 1st is the opening of the Dancing Horse Farm's 4th Annual Equine Art Exhibit in Lebanon, Ohio. The works will be at the Farm May 1-2, then be moved to the "Picture This Gallery" in Downtown Lebanon, Ohio May 3-16th. I was a juror for this exhibit and have three paintings in the juror's section of the exhibit. I sent three 'Child a day' paintings: "Let down again", "Pink ribbons", and "Patient cowboys". I'll send along links when the exhibit is up on the website.
Tomorrow I'll be making a Gallery stop to switch out older works for newer ones. I hope to be back in the studio later in the day, I've got some deer antlers I've started dabbing paint on.
Talk to you tomorrow,
Debbie
