I watched some of the Olympic swimming last night, it is awesome, the precision, the power of the swimmers.
For Creative Tuesdays' 'Beatles Song' theme, I've done an acrylic on a post-it note. It's based on a photo I saw on Google. I chose to do The long and winding road', a sad kind of song.

I stared at this piece for a long time, trying to imagine where you started. Was it from the top and then downwards?
Beautiful painting! Valerie
thats beautiful!
this is wonderful ~ well done ~~ thanks, namaste, (A Creative Harbor)
this is just beautiful. I know that song and like it too.
i watched the swimming last night - so exciting. loved the piece they did on Lochte, did you see it?
have a great sunday!
Gigi, I did the road, then the mountains then the trees! A quick pencil sketch, then I painted it in. The trick for me was figuring out the point where the road should end and where the mountains would start.
I did see that interesting piece on Lochte Heather...he's a designer too, loved those shoes!
cool painting Christine! I love your style.
I've been watching the Olympics too, my boys love it! Lovely painting, you chose a great Beatles song to paint!
Great painting. I've watched some of it. Loved the opening ceremony... :)
I am absolutely amazed that you are painting your latest acrylics on post-it notes?!? Wow!
(The swimming is one of my favorite things to watch!)
xo
Kristin
p.s. I am totally going to try that quinoa mac & cheese recipe at some point ;)
I particularly like to watch the male swimmers ;)
lol at WrightStuff. :)
Lovely piece, Christine. That song is a little somber, but beautiful all the same. Love your snow capped mountains!
absolutely beautiful Christine; love these mountains!
I like this road as it reminds me some of our summer road trip recently taken where we drove past mountains with snow caps much like yours. Nicely done.
Really nice, Christine. Love that song and your painting!
Lovely painting Christine :) Hope you're having a good Sunday!
Amazing how mountain roads can be both intriguing and ominous at the same time. I can't believe this was done on a post-it!
Nice painting job. Simple but evocative. Easily, the Beatles could have selected this for album cover artwork.
I'm was never a real big Beatle fan so didn't know many of their songs...a few I really liked. I think you did a realy good illustration of the song you picked.
I am really loving the post it art... they are so complete and perfect for their size... I am sure it is harder than you make it look...xx
Love the mountains, the saying less is more is true heere
Very pretty! Makes me want to hike through those mountains and see what is to be found at their snow-covered caps. Very good illustration of this song <3
Great interpretation. I've been on many of those roads throughout my years on the road and they can and often do give a similar effect as the song does. Very nicely done. Thanks
simple and neat one
Isn't it funny how we envision songs? Always thought of English pastures when hearing this but here you have snow capped Rocky mountains. Anyway, works well and nicely don't too, Christine! your pic is certainly not sombre but lovely.
OMG! I can't believe we picked the same song! It is a great one, of course, but not one of their biggies. Anyway...great minds...ha...you know the rest. :-)
Neat that it's done a post it note. That's small! And I like the texture you created!
I really like he mountain view and tree lined road. It looks very peaceful.
This makes me wish that I was walking along this road, so peacefull. Wonderful interpretation!
what a great portrayal of this song! So much can be done on a post it note... It is, indeed, sad but touching too. Almost a Beatles swan song since this was one of the last Paul McCartney recorded before he 'resigned'.
