Today is a yipee day for me!! YIPEE!! Today I'm meeting my computer expert friend and we are ordering me a NEW COMPUTER!! Months of fighting this old dinosaur and I'm ready!! So, off I go...BUT before I do I wanted to give you all another reference photo for our latest contest. We live in a neighborhood called "Lone Pine Estates". It is funny to me that most of our neighborhood is full of pines all together...so, in my mind this one LONE PINE must be the one that inspired the name for our area. It is the ONLY pineish tree standing alone anywhere I see...So, I took it with full intentions of painting it...but haven't yet...I thought of my friend Jane Hunt...and thought...what a perfect tree for her to paint. Anyway Jane, no pressure!! So, if anyone feels inspired by this one...have at it! Remember our contest goes until July 19...any photo I've posted of late (since right before my visit to my mom's) that tickles your fancy and you paint it AND you send it to my e-mail (art4life44@hotmail.com) AND if you are a follower or become a follower...I will choose from one of you. We have two in the list right now...so try it...You can sell your painting or whatever you wish...I just wanted to do a different sort of contest...:)The other two are part and parcel of a new collage of, yes, you got it...trees...but a little different...I'm going to see how my little paper casts from the aspen mold I made will make it "specialer"...
