This was EZ this week! I just recently acquired this painting a friend did. My first dog wall hanging! The cats seem somewhat indifferent to it, so it stays.

Love the theme - and this old paintbox I found a couple of years ago.

This is my kitchen wallpaper. I know it is outdated, but I have loved it. Now I am thinking PAINT! It would look much better painted!

My DH painted this a long time ago. We finally got it framed. It was about time! :)

A painted mural on the side of a building downtown depicting some of the history of Owensboro. Thanks, Bill, for an easy theme this week.

Went down to my basement to shoot my shelf of paint cans from various projects (living here over 10 years, every room, and the exterior, as been painted at least once). Took a couple of photos - not very inspired. Then I saw these, on a lower shelf. Moved them to my light box and like this result much better.

Hi from Colorado, everyone! Wandering around the town of Frisco, Colorado, I took this photo of a painted tile wall. The mountain is a pretty good rendering of Peak One, the start of the Ten Mile range, that goes from Frisco down to Breckenridge. (Anyone want to guess the names of the other 9 peaks? Or the distance between Frisco and Breck??) The ACTUAL Peak One is easily visible behind this building, but it was very backlit in this late afternoon shot, so it's not included here.

Where is everyone? This is an easy topic! Hey, Val, glad you contributed, from two states!:D

Here's another one. A watercolor I bought a couple years ago, because it reminded me of one of my cats. And that particular cat shot 30 seconds later. Anyone see the similarities?

This little man lives in/on the laneway which is the back way into my office block. I can't resist wishing him a Good Morning as I pass.

This was my very first venture into the world of brushes in PSE 6. I liked the abstraction and saved the doodle.

This painting is actually a panel insert for a casket that someone had framed back in the late 80's

I wanted to get boats being painted but it's too cold I guess so here's the painted paint brush at the paint store. ( I think the goo on the wall is silly string ;( )

I'm going to post two this week. The first one I set up at home last night using some acrylic paint blobs.

The second one was just some spray paint on a plywood sheet at a construction site I passed on the way to work this morning.
