….coming soon a new Friday Art Challenge
When one of Kevin’s granddaughters comes up with a new idea for another art challenge he just can’t say no. So when he was asked to consider a challenge called Funky Frog Friday he was all over it. Here’s a sneak preview of what we can expect over the next few weeks or even months on Fridays.
….on my short walk with Frances I couldn’t help but notice the dark snow clouds over the lake on the horizon
Later today we should see a fair accumulation of the white stuff.
…it took awhile this winter but the ice is building up along the shoreline
Today the backyard was a hive of activity for the squirrels. They were climbing the trees and jumping from one branch to another and there was a lot of chasing going on. This one little guy appeared to be enjoying the sun and just stood there soaking up the rays.
….an odd collection this week, some new and some from the archives
Every Thursday or theres about I post photos of trios, such as three objects (similar or not), three people (related or not) or three animals. If you’d like to join the challenge copy the link from this post and paste it into your submission. There are no rules as to when you post, what size photo you post or whether it’s in colour or black and white. I’ll do my best to leave a comment on your site when you join the fun.
…..I made another painting
In yesterday’s post for Water, Water Everywhere I literally played with water to come up with some photos for the challenge. In doing so I laid down some watercolour on paper and overlapped it with other colours and water to make it run together. When I was done I took the paper that I was laying colour and water onto and decided to add more colour and marks with ink, pencil and paint. Here is what I came up with.
From this……
….to this.
….happy birthday Sarah and happy anniversary Andrea and Josie

Drips, drops and blobs of coloured water. When you don’t get outside you need to come up with some inventive water pictures. I always have water on my art table and I started playing with the water, brushes and paints.
This eventually became a painting. I’ll put it in my next post.
