Near Oops

























More building up of line and color here. (Tint courtesy of Instagram. Dang, those filters are fun to play with!)

Sometimes on a long project your brain switches into cruise mode. I was painting along, thinking in the back of my mind that a red lobster would pop beautifully. Only problem– these are sea creatures in their environment. A red lobster would be... a cooked lobster.

Close one, Jen...

Dogs mother-- Ha! Excellent excuse! :-)

Elizabeth-- Thank you! I actually use it just for the filters right now... not enough time for another social network... yet. ;-)
