Another bitter cold day here so I'm enjoying the fact that I only have to go out once today. Would rather stay home entirely, but such is not to be. There has been a teeny bit of progress on my latest landscape (mainly because I've been out more than I've been in the past couple of days)....
If you scroll down to my previous post(s) you can see the progress I've made since the last time I showed you.
Today's quote is from Einstein..."Creativity is seeing what everyone else has seen, and thinking what no one else has thought"
Oooh... I see the light trim on the windows and door. That really brings depth to the picture. And you've added a hole near the roofline. Watching your pictures take form, is like playing a game of I SPY! :) Oh! I also see you added a chimney!
ReplyDeleteNever thought of I Spy, but you're right! I can't get a photo that shows that I've added 'glass' to a couple of the window panes as well as on the car. It only seems to show in certain lights.
DeleteWell....I should've trusted you, shouldn't I. I love this car even better!! Love all that rust. 'Tis a fickle gal that I am. I do believe this is my new favourite pretty from your magical hands, lovely Mary Anne.
ReplyDeleteTrust me? Muuu haw haw - not something that's ever wise! Today I work on grass (and not the type you imbibe either).
DeleteI love all the Clydesdale ads. I don't even have tv! But I catch them here and there. Lovely story lines, great editing. Not sure what product they're selling. Stables? Horses? Cowboy hats?
ReplyDeleteThe wonderful Clydesdale ads are for Budweiser beer. They've created a new ad for many of the Super Bowl games but in recent years they've reverted to something else and they're not half as nice as the horses. I've heard that they did another Clydesdale one for the game this weekend so hopefully that's true. I think they've listened to public opinion for once.
DeleteI know! I was joking, old joke about loved the ads, dunno what they were selling.
DeleteI quite like your landscape.
ReplyDeleteThank you!! You have an eye for these things so it's high praise.
DeleteGreat progress Mary Anne. Very cold here too but not, I think as cold as you have it! Stay warm! Christine xx
ReplyDeleteWould like to hibernate Christine but unfortunately we can't because we're currently dealing with ill friends who need our attention. Not much in the way of creativity getting done at the moment.
DeleteMA Dear you are too brave to venture outside in this Polar Vortex. Safety and warmth for you. This Einstein quote makes me think of what my Grandma always told me...”Look at things with different eyes”. She was very creative!!!
ReplyDeleteWish we could stay inside Sherry (see my response to Christine's comment just above yours as to why). Just have to bundle up...and hope the car starts!
DeleteHealing Energy for your friends sweet MA.
DeleteI see a new chimney and a plank missing. How do you add the colors & shading? Is that paint or fabric? You have added dimension for sure.
ReplyDeleteAny shading I manage to do is generally done either using paint or good ol' Sharpie markers, depending on the colour I want to use and what I happen to have in my stash.
DeleteI have to go out every day, at least twice, but today - unless I find a secret stash of canned dog food somewhere in the house - I'll have to actually get in the truck and go to the shops. I plan on searching very thoroughly for another case of cans before I make that awful decision, though!
ReplyDeleteHope you found a secret stash of dog food! Not fun having to go out in miserable weather, for sure. Something to be avoided if at all possible.
DeleteYour landscape looks awesome:)
ReplyDeleteI've never seen that commercial before (not a football fan)......had to get a tissue to mop up the tears:)
Thanks Mary Ann - I'm having fun trying to do a house for a change...and the car adds a whole 'nother element of decision-making. As for the commercial - try googling 'Budweiser' ads and you'll find a number that feature the horses. Definitely worth seeing!!
DeleteGood work on your project, Mary Ann.
ReplyDeleteAnd thanks for the links, fun ideas, I like the reading pillow and the
'Love' banner is gorgeous, I like visiting Stephanie's blog.
Have a great day and stay warm.
Thanks Janie. Glad you liked the links - I have fun searching them out and hope that people find something of interest at least once in awhile.
