Here there won't be Rhinos...
OK, I tried to do something with a bit of perspective today and it doesn't involve a rhino. I could have added a rhino as I did add some items to the painting that weren't there in the photo. That being the cat and the jack-o-lantern. But, I resisted. This was done for the weekend drawing event and while I see it as something of a failure, at least I tried something different. You know by now that straight lines (as you can see I sort of lost my straight lines in the process) and perspective are not my thing. I like organic shapes. Nonetheless, I tried and really had nothing to lose by trying. It was a summer photo, but I decided to turn it into a fall scene.
Anyway, it was good to see you today, jb. I enjoyed our conversation and my pumpkin latte which WAS a bit too pumpkiny, but good nonetheless ("nonetheless" appears to be my word for the day).
It has been raining (with a bit of snow mixed in earlier for good measure) all day. It really feels more like a November rain rather than an October rain, but I guess I have to just accept that we are not having a "regular" fall. I usually go over to a friend's house on Friday evenings, but I will just be staying home tonight, which is good as I kind of feel like hibernating.
*snooze* warning: this post will put you to sleep.

Hey Anne, it was great to see you yesterday too. Sorry of your too pumpkiny pumpkin latte. guess it was not pumpkintacular then.
I heart this drawing and think that your perspective on your perspective is a bit too harsh. This is quite a lovely little piece of art and I like your additions too. Quite lovely.
Your post did not put me to sleep.
