I'm working on my third rock this evening.
I stayed up until almost 1am this morning, playing.

DH: HEH! This new hobby-thing isn't going to take
you away from cooking now is it?
Moi: NOOOOOO !
DH: What's for dinner by the way, and you'd better not say leftovers again!
Moi: Chuckle .... I don't know, what are YOU making for dinner?

:LOL:
 
:LOL: Kgirl and MrK....!

I painted this one really quick this afternoon....I was aiming for a starry night sky. :huh::)

My artistic abilities are totally nil. So I had better get back to my needlework and knitting.

I can't draw a straight line even if I had a whole set of rulers. Remember paint my numbers? I even screwed that up.

Years ago we had a rock crushing place up in Saugus. Now I know why there was always a bunch of folks there on the weekend. Hunting for rocks to paint. They had a bin to pick from.

My very first Painted Rocks.
They're not perfect, but, like Cheryl said,
I don't HAVE to be artistic,
just have FUN!
And y'a know, I am.
Different ideas keep popping into my head,
and I have to grab a pen and write them down,
or I'll forget...
DH doesn't want to "give them away... you should sell these,
folks AREN'T crafty ... they'd buy these..."
Uummm :ermm:
 
Wow, they are awesome Cheryl and K-girl.

But, ahem, K-girl. I'm not sure putting instructions on a rock is a good idea. That first one might get you arrested.

I love this one. My granddaughter is an artist. Artist enough that she has sold a number of her paintings and some on request. She pained for me a stand of trees just after the sunset in a mountain area. The moon is shining through the trees with a cloud covering a tip of it. And you can just see the outline of the mountains. I love that painting.

You certainly have the gift of art in you. Keep it up. Follow your imagination.
 
I really like the rock with the front door and window, the house! Cute!
 
Here’s another crafty idea that I came across while browsing YouTube; painting glass with Elmer’s glue mixed with acrylic paint to resemble stained glass. Haven’t done it yet. I’m saving it for when Mark gets out of rehab. I think it’d be a great and fun craft to do together!

Kgirl...you are so creative - I love your rock paintings!

Joel...that's a really good idea, too. I hope Mark is doing OK and will be out of rehab soon.

Since the time change is coming soon and it'll be dark by 5 (ugh), I'm hoping to have some kind of 'something' to help fill my evening time, other than TV. :)
