I've noticed the squirrels being very busy at this time of year, scurrying around, up and down the trees and burying lots of nuts everywhere, even in one of my planters according to my husband M. I hope this doesn't mean we are in for a harsh winter.
Welcome to Alexandra's Sunday Sketches. I did an acrylic (6.5" x 4.5") on cardstock today. It's called 'watching the sunrise'. I'm really happy with how this piece turned out, a bit of whimsy.

She's got a good spot :) to watch the beautiful sky.
ReplyDeleteHmmmm... The red hair reminds me of The Little Mermaid. What a relaxing picture.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful sunrise and love the mermaid, too!! Valerie
ReplyDeleteLovely sunrise and beautiful composition!
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your Sunday!
Oh, I would like to be there. Looks like a lovely place.
ReplyDeleteI like your mermaid - very colorful! Do you have this posted with Sunday Sketches yet? I am wondering if I don't have the right link because it is 4:30 am Sunday and there is still no link on Blue Chair Diary...
ReplyDeleteSo very pretty , I love the addition of the whimsical mermaids...and watching the sunrise is one of my favorite Sunday morning events!

ReplyDeleteHI Christine!!!! love the painting and love that beautiful sky....wonderful piece....
ReplyDeleteoh your little mermaid is so cute!
ReplyDeleteLove the serenity in this Christine. Squirrels... hmmm... I'm not too happy with my cute little visitor this year as he eat all my rose buds. Something he hasn't done before and hopefully something he will forget over winter.
ReplyDeleteOh how adorable ~ love it~ (A Creative Harbor)
ReplyDeleteSuch great creation! I wish I could paint too but I can only express my creative side through words.
ReplyDeleteI would love to get to know you more in the future through your posts. Would you like us to follow each other? Take care! :D
what a sweet painting! Very whimsical:)
ReplyDeleteYes we have so many squirrels in our yard as well! I love to watch them
Oh how cool that we both did mermaids! I love her - and her pose! Bravo, xo
ReplyDeleteIt seems like I am getting here later and later for Sunday Sketches sorry... maybe I was meant to get here late though as we had a sunrise that looked just like that this morning... I didn't see any mermaids, but maybe they were a bit shy...xx
ReplyDeleteI like your use of colors. I also like your previous mermaid piece for paint party. you're a wonderful artist.
ReplyDeletehope you have a great day.
