"Orange" Theme...sign up NOW!

Luscious Oil Painting(s) by Karen O'Neil

 (SIGN UP now open. See below.)

Before I go into the new theme, let me just say how much I enjoyed the last one. In fact, I think my tree was rather like ones Lissa draws, and Donna and I were certainly on the same wavelength, right? Then, what is it with so many of us thinking red mushrooms for fairy tales? Fun!

Anyway, one thing that may not be so readily apparent is really quite funny: Alex and I both liked each others' more than our own. She even joked about switching them where I would post hers and she would mine. Ha ha, while that would have certainly been novel, I suspect you'd still be able to tell who's was who's! That goes the same for each of us, actually, each with our own unique styles. That is what I so love about this art co-op — seeing how we each interpret  the same theme, even if taking the exact same object, like say, an ORANGE. (And, yes, feel free to just show the colour, if you prefer. Up to you entirely.)

Looking forward to seeing what you each come up with. Linda, however, will not be joining us next week as many of you will have noted in her last CT theme. Like our wonderful Wanda, also missed, she's going to take a creative break from here for an indeterminate time. She will be sorely missed by many of us, I know.

So, here's to you, Linda. Thank you for being such a fantastic part of this co-op. People come and go in such creative endeavors and taking a break to recharge is always a good idea. Know that while you'll be missed, you're leaving this CT richer from all your contributions...so many come to mind! :)

P.S.Sign up will be here on the bottom of this post, June 2nd, See you then, if not before. Feel free to leave a comment below too. I always like to read what you think of the themes.

P.P.S. Please go see in last post that Mariane and Niina also took up for the Fairy Tale Tree challenge.
(Sign up got messed up or something.)
