Painting

After looking at houses in different neighborhoods for a few weeks now, we’ve realized that we probably can’t afford what we want, so for the moment at least, we’re back to the idea of adding on to our house.  This suits me just fine.  I love our neighborhood.

September Rain, my version 2012

September Rain, artist's original

I haven’t made anything terribly exciting or photogenic this week since the turkey lettuce wraps I’ve already shared with you.  Last night I went to another Wine and Canvas event with a friend from work.  It was so much fun, and it’s so interesting to see the different versions of the painting that come out of that class.  I learned a few new things about painting in general, and I was pretty pleased with the painting I did.  There are a few details I’d like to improve, but I can see progress in my work since my first one.  I’m looking forward to my oil painting class tomorrow night!  Here’s my latest effort, entitled September Rain, my version.  I’ve also included a photograph of the original by the artist who taught the class.
