New Theme Announced... Sign Up NOW!


SIGN UP NOW OPEN. (See Below.) 

So, have I kept you guessing what this new theme is about? :) I like to sometimes find artwork that doesn't give it away too quickly yet aptly depicts the theme too, in a different sort of way. I find this abstract modern impressionist's limited palette works of Manhattan profoundly inspiring. Incredible. He really is taking painting to another new level whilst also not making it completely abstract or even ugly as so often goes the modern art world.

Anyway, in case you haven't figured it out yet, the new theme is WET! Oh, this should produce lots of different ideas. Can't wait to see what each of you splash out there! Enjoy. (Speaking of that, do be sure you've visited everyone from the last extended "happy" theme, like Donna's piece that just went up in in the nick of time, right after I posted mine! (BTW, the list of dunkin' goodies are now up under my biccie pic there.)

I hope you enjoyed reading the Happy thoughts as much as I did tonight. Wonderful writings on that fleeting sense of happiness too. Loved it.Thank you.

Back to "normalcy" now. No more traveling expected this next fortnight so we should be back on track to having just two weeks to come up with something. I will post the sign up here next week to give you a week not to have to worry about it! You can perhaps just ponder away into that misty wonder yonder. :)


P.S. The "followers" gadget is now on my blog sidebar, should you want to follow that way. :)


SIGN UP your "wet" piece below for us all to visit:

    2. Um, I'm not sure I can add to that. I mean I suppose that could be one interpretation someone might like to explore?! Perhaps change your setting to "safe" mode? Hahaha.

  3. I think of rain when I see this piece and since the theme is wet, well, I could only think of rain or someone soaked with rain, well, I guess I'll be doing that or so I think, there's nothing definite at the moment.

    hope you have a lovely day.

    1. Lissa, that is what I see in the photo too. Well, you love doing rain illustrations and umbrellas so I think it's a perfect theme for you. Can't wait to see it. Start now! :)

    1. Well Janis, if you want to do an oil painting then likely the paint will still be wet. Go for it! I love the idea of showing wet paint. :

    2. Haven't touched oils since I took one class - back then couldn't stand the smell. I like my watercolours. I hope the link goes up soon as I leave early Friday morning and won't be able to connect.

  7. I've managed to finish on time this time though I think I still wanted to do more to the piece but for now, it's considered finished.

    thanks for hosting, hope you have a lovely day.

    1. I took a sneak peak at it earlier and have to say, it's amazing. And you wanted to do more? Whoa. So glad you had time to get this to where it is. I love it.

      Seriously, anyone who is not part of this co-op who reads this needs to check out Lissa's details in her own "wet" interpretation! Tons of bottles with lots of little trinkets. Incredible.

  9. Thihi.... This is too funny, I click on the Link where it says Marianne - and you know what?? I came to my own post... tsk tsk tsk... Michael, you have too many N's in your fingers :P. But THANK YOU ever so much for signing me up - I simply forgot it. My mind is not that good at the moment, too many things around me I have to have my attention to.

    Thank you for visiting, Michael

    Kind regards

  10. Mariane, I know you have one N but while my spelling is superb, my typing skills severely lack!
