Not Boring To Me

I spent a day at the easels. To anyone else, it would probably be boring. There wasn’t anything really photo worthy, but I took 2 at the end of the day so you could see that I made progress.

Here it is in a list:

  1. I put a final layer on the Hume Lake ornaments, but only on the lake side. The photos looked very terrible. I didn’t even send them to the customer, because they were so non-representative of how cool these little things will be.
  2. When I walked back to the house, there were EIGHT deer on and around my little front lawn. Yes, EIGHT. I didn’t have my camera in my pocket.
  3. I worked very diligently on the 11×14 “In The Orchard II”. When it is drier, I will add a wind machine, more oranges, and orange blossoms.
  4. It was an easy transition to keep making oranges and leaves on the giant painting that probably won’t go in my dining room.

Are you yawning yet? It really was a wonderful day! Thank you for sticking with me to the end.

  1. What no pumpkins????!! Ha ha – I love to bring my pumpkin painting out every year… it brings me joy!

    I love the paintings of the orange groves with the mountains in the distance.,. It’s a scene I remember well. Mike’s family lived in the orange groves outside of Ivanhoe …. Hmmm… our 45th anniversary is coming up … perhaps???

    • Anne, this year the only pumpkins in my life seem to be those orange water holder things the firefighters use.

      I can accommodate a wish for an orange grove scene!

  2. No activity is boring if you enjoy it! I think quilting is boring. Many think crochet is boring. So there you go!

    • Sharon, taste is an individual matter, for sure. When people ask me how I can have the patience to knit, I wonder how they can have the patience to NOT knit!

      • I hear ya, sister! Crocheting is a major stress-buster for me. Hey, it beats getting drunk or high (and healthier, not to mention safer)!
