I’ve Started a New Project

 

This is my first attempt at painting, and I may have bitten off more than I can chew, or paint, as the case may be.  This project came about because Susan was talking about getting someone she knows to do it, and she isn’t cheap.    So…. like everything else I get myself into, it started with these words;” Are you crazy?  I can do that, and for a lot less money!”  And that’s how I began my mural around the screened porch. 

 

It doesn’t really have a theme, though it does represent a bygone era, and it doesn’t even do that consistently.  Some of it seems to be in the turn of the century time frame, while other parts are even older, and some newer.  It is made up of pictures I have found in books, as well as David Winters cottages Susan has around the house, and things I just pull out of my imagination.  Anyway, I’m about half through and I thought I would put it out there to be critiqued, so here it is.  Before you start I do want to say that the photography is not so great.  It was photographed in bad light.  Yeah, that’s the ticket.  Bad light.
