Virginia, thank you very much for the great references.
C&C are welcome as well as any corrections on my English.
October 1, 2019 at 10:16 pm #888696Lovely photos! Love the dog. What an expression.
That rose is wonderful too.
Howdy folks.
Virginia, when do you think you will post the Christmas card exchange sign up?~Christine
🇨🇦October 2, 2019 at 10:37 am #888673Thanks all!
The Christmas exchange will be posted very soon. I’ll send a message out to past participants as soon as I post it.
I won’t be using the project system though, I’ll have to figure out how to do it within the forums. There’s a new site upgrade being worked on and the project system is too outdated, so rather than lose the project when we move, we’ll make it work in the forums.The Purple Dog Painting Blog

October 4, 2019 at 8:43 pm #888675That works so well! The leaves are a great color too.
Silly question, do you have sycamore trees in SA? They are heavily textured, the bark peels and makes all sorts of interesting patterns and colors. I love them.
