"Dancing Leaves" Fall Watercolor Painting 30 in 30 Day 24


"DANCING LEAVES"


Framed 8x10
Had fun with a little more abstract style today.









 I think it's a good thing the 30 day challenge is winding down, I'm running out of steam!

 Just got back from a brisk walk outside with little puppy, Primm and thought she was going to blow away. The wind is whipping those little leaves all over the place out there. Looks like Fall is officially here as of 4:44 yesterday.

This is a colorful little 5x7 fall watercolor painting.



On another note:  I'm excited to have an artist wine and cheese reception this Friday night from 4-5pm at the Highlands in Topsham and then the Arts 10x10 event from 5-8 the same evening!

Brunswick's Arts Are Elementary 10x10



Here are the two pieces that I have chosen for this years "Arts Are Elementary"!


"CAREFREE"

This little bud was picked and sat carefree on the window sill....and was heavenly to smell.

The flower is a Rosa Rugosa, sometimes called the Beach Flower. You see many of them along the beach paths at Popham Beach, Maine. 

They smell terrific and they were originally brought in to Maine to help preserve the beach erosion. They are a "carefree" plant with a wonderful fragrance. 

"CARRIED AWAY"

Wave's can be very symbolic of your emotions, and this particular wave was inspired during a trip to Reids State Park. I was very pregnant at the time and climbing over the rocks was a challenge, but I made it to the top rock!

Sitting watching the waves crash along the shore with the warm sun shining on my belly, was such a peaceful yet exciting time, knowing I was going to become a mother for the first time very soon. 

Both pieces will be available for purchase, at this year's Arts Are Elementary sale, Friday September 27, 2013.

Arts Are Elementary: "A unique chance to collect works by some of Maine's finest artists...and a great way to support the arts in Brunswick's Elementary Schools. All pieces are 10"x10", framed and ready to hang for $200. $100 goes to the artist, $100 goes to Arts Are Elementary".
