    Welcome to our November Plant Parade Challenge.

    I’m your substitute host this month and will also be hosting until the end of January – but December and January will be combined into another topic – and maybe a later reveal date – because I know how busy most of you will be!

    Typical of November (at least in the Northern hemisphere) are

    Chrysanthemums…….. Chrysanthemums ……………… Chrysanthemums………. Chrysanthemums

    Few rules

      [*]Any medium, any size
      [*] Any crop of reference – your own reference if you wish
      [*] Any discussion but no showing your work – yet!
      [*] Reveal day is 25th November.

    [/CENTER]

    Enjoy!

    The references are all from the RIL – more here ……. or maybe even draw/paint some from life!

    Beautiful photos.

    Hard challenge, as much as beautiful potential.

        Glad you all like ’em ………. I know they’re difficult but maybe an extra should have been ‘ just look for the essence of the mums rather than the reality’!!!:lol:

        Hmmmm – wonder if we’ll get any abstracts!

        Cheers, Maureen

            Gorgeous Mums! Oh my…Chrysanthemums are on display at Longwood Gardens. I think it a perfect excuse to go and be inspired. I am DETERMINED to take part again this month. Great theme. 👍

            Hi everybody :wave:

            Maureen, here they are and link to other Green Chrysanthemums @ RIL

            Hope they are quite interesting and enjoy your November PPP.

            Quiet here! Hope that means lots of creative activity!

            I’ve been doing my Acrylics challenge, so maybe I can get to chrysanths now!:eek:

            Cheers, Maureen

                I think I’ll take a photo of mine tomorrow in the daylight. The photo I took indoors in evening light seems a little blurry …

                Dewi, that link doesn’t work.

                I need to find a photo and get busy as we are traveling and go back to Texas tomorrow, so may be late posting mine.
