Fall on the Farm

After going to out to take photos last week, I came back to the studio and painted this farm scene.  I was trying a different brand of paint and some of their new colors.  The actual painting has more orange colors in it.  May shoot this one again.

Today we went out taking photos so I have so many things to paint right now....I need more time, a house keeper, someone to cook and do laundry, someone to help with all of the leaves, a bookkeeper,  you get the idea...I need some free time to paint.  lol.  

Have a great week.  k

Gearing myself up for my classes that will start in a few weeks.  I always start my students off with barns.  They always seem to get us all in "the mood...."  That should be a song.  lol

Thought I would show the little minis that I have been painting.  They
were fun to do, so I had a workshop on them with my students.

I think they enjoyed them too.

Mooo-ve Over

If you have read my blog you might have caught the entries about the farm/farmers who saved us during the flood in southern Indiana 3 years.  Well, I finally got to painting the cows on the farm.  I will never forget the cries that they made (mooing noises) as the waters were up to their bellies.  We all (got a southern accent from that experience) were up in the upper right hand window of the hayloft (haymow).


We visited there in June so I was able to take more photos.  I am planning on getting this painting made into greeting cards.  Then I will be able to send them some as a little reminder/gift.

Heading Back Home

This is a very common scene about 2 hours from my home. I had taken this photo of the buggy in the fall, I had a photo of a street scene and I made up the composition and the farm area. It is fun to have an artistic license.

Thought I would take a break from decorating for the Christmas holiday by doing this painting. There is so much to do...but you still have to take time to fill your soul. Enjoy!
