Trees


Not a brilliant painting, I was trying to do some wet in wet and using the odd colours I am seeing in my garden as a background for one of the dead trees I saw today on my walk, result of the drought which is now thankfully over.
I have been having a brilliant week doing the eco dyeing with India Flint but I have also been having terrible trouble working out how to post photos as there seems to be a problem between blogger and picasa, but after having this new computer for a couple of months I have now worked out where my photos are and how to access them through my pictures and firefox. Whew!
This post is really to work out where they all are and now I have succeeded in doing a scan, fiddling with it in picasa and exporting it to my pictures I feel a bit happier.
Off to make a salad to go with the fish we are having that John caught the other day.

I like the simplicity of this Penny - you really do inspire me to have a go.

The painting is lovely...I would call it cotton candy trees.

Getting control of my picture program, after getting a new computer, was a heahache for me too.

I think this is a brilliant painting. I love it...the graphic feel...the simplicity. It's a treasure and would make a cool card too...
