So, this is my first post of an actual painting in quite a while...boy have I been missing it. But, as usual, life is crazy. (Soon, I'll have to come up with another excuse :) !) Anyway, here is a painting that I did after looking at a blog that Karin Jurick (incredible artist!) hosts called "Different Strokes from Different Folks." The gist of the idea is that she posts a photo of a subject and then anyone who wants to can paint their version of the photo and she'll post them all on the site. It is such a neat idea, and the creativity among the artists is an awesome thing! So...I just found the site and decided to paint a couple of the challenges, even though it was too late to get them entered for the challenge. Well, good thing. The first one I decided to paint was of 3 little white pumpkins...here you see my version. Yes, they are garlic heads and not pumpkins. As I was painting them, they started to resemble garlic much more than pumpkins, so I decided to just go with it. Maybe I'll do the pumpkins later. Fun anyway! Check out Karin's blog and the "Different Strokes" blog when you can! This painting is 5"x7", Oil on Canvas board.
