Loon on Jordon Pond, watercolor and colored pencil on mi-teintes paper

It's been a while since I posted here! Though I have at least two posts in the drafting stage!
I'm excited about the month of September for two reasons - First: My up-coming trip to the artist's "bucket list," Monhegan Island, 10 miles off the coat of Maine. The Wyeths painted/paint there, as did Rockwell Kent, Robert Henri, Edward Hopper, and a myriad of others. It would be difficult to talk about the history of American painting in the late 19th – early 20th centuries without including Monhegan Island.
The second reason I'm excited is because Leslie Saeta is having another 30/30 Challenge! I do like that it fits nicely with the beginning of my trip to Monhegan and all the creative, painting energies that will be coursing through my brain (and hopefully, my hands)!
So stay tuned! Much more will be happening here!
I love loons! Nice rendition
ReplyDeleteWell, I was going to say exactly the same thing Nan said! They're such dramatic looking birds, and I love the reflection on yours, and also the yellow water... great contrast!
ReplyDeleteEnjoy the challenge!
Thank you both!
ReplyDeletethe island sounds wonderful. Look forward to seeing your pics. Wish I could join in the 30 days, but doing a bunch of health things first. I may set up a new 30 day challenge in Jan or Feb. I'll be in Florida. Good luck on all your plans. Coralee Burch
ReplyDeleteHi Coralee - Keep reading along in the blog! We're on Day 14 now and I'm getting ready to post for Day 15!
DeleteI'm sure there will be plenty of opportunities to participate in 30/30 Challenge and it's always fun to have others to do it will. I think it really improves your art and how you work and think about it.
Hope you work out your health issues and feel better - Keep in touch!
