TUESDAYS

MARY'S BOAT 12x12

We do have a good time painting on Tuesdays. Last Tuesday during the critique I dropped one of the artist's paintings in between the dock slits!!! It was a full moon high tide and we looked in the water but had no luck finding it. I felt horrible  and at the same time it was so unusual that we all tried not to laugh or be upset. 20 minutes into the critique, the tide turned and we looked once again...lo and behold we found it hung up on some seaweed, ready to make it's big break out to sea. Ah, the beauty of acrylic..after 2 days of drying out it is now framed.

    On peut dire qu'elle revient de loin... Elle s'était octroyée une petite baignade... J'imagine la scène!
    Heureusement que cette mésaventure s'est bien terminée... Au moins, cette toile aura l'avantage d'avoir une belle histoire.
    Je vous félicite toutes les deux pour ce joli travail.

    gros bisous à toutes (vous me semblez être un groupe bien sympathique...)

    Page, Mary's Boat is FANtastic! Love the colors and the strong design!

    I would have laughed, then probably cried. You are a class act, and see what happens? xo

    What a great story! I can't believe you found the painting after dropping it in the water. The colors and reflections in your boat painting are fantastic.
