Anne's Challenge. (plein air)

I painted this geranium at the Market on Sunday. Peter, the plant man let me borrow one of his pot plants. I sat it on my art table I have set up and.............here it is.. 6"x4" on board acrylic.

I say, the aliens are coming, true, they are, I heard it on the readio. Protect yourself! Grab your alfoil your metal bowls....

...or in my case a stainless steel measuring cup hahahahaha. Not going to cover much but hey.... A4 sketch book Graphite.

First picture is an update. I posted my drawing in the Drawing and Sketching Forum, on Wet Canvas and got some really invaluable advice. I thinks it looks better now, I deepened the inside of the container and lightened the handle shadow.

Anne's Challenge

Anne, Here is my effort. It has been a bit cold and windy here for the last few days (for the tropics) and being a bit of a woose, I settled for a vignette of a sheltered corner of my garden.

Painting I have been working on today.

Can't get a decent pic' of the water. I will try again, later, when it is darker, and the fluro lights are working at their best. 12"x16" Double thickness gallery wrap canvas. Acrylic

Hattish thing.

It only took a while, but I finally got it drawn up. I started later than I wanted. This is hubby's work hat when he has to go to the field or gets deployed. My husband is in the military, by the way. :) Think I got the shadows better this time (hopefully). It's not this grainy in person, but my scanner likes to add it's own little white dots. lol

A shaped covering for the head, usually with a crown and brim, esp. for wear outdoors

I am reluctant to post this after seeing JJ's grandkids drawings hahaha
