I have heard many musicians express disbelief whenever a song becomes a smash hit. It may sometimes be the result of a PR handler's direction. Bryan Ferry was not coached in his shock, I'm sure, when "Love is the Drug" became a top ten hit. Well, I guess it has happened in visual art as well. I couldn't believe the sweet little old woman that saw this in Isabelle's Studio Gallery, and just had to have it. Back to work, next time I'll describe what I had forgotten about drawing on the back of that canvas. Oh, she'll definitely find it, too. LOL

Here's the thing, this was originally a sarcastic statement about landscape painters. In South Jersey... well, there's just too many! I primed a canvas, and laid on a sky that had the slightest gradation of light blue to a lighter blue. Then, came weeds into the patch of sky--without any ground--middle ground, or background to speak of. I was researching vintage signs and logos for some automotive works. When I saw the Phillps 66, it made me think about losing it on a motorcycle and ending up in a soft weedy ditch. This how things appear when you first look up... skyward, and askew.

Think how ridiculous it was to paint in that sign through the weeds and sky that were already down. eeek

ADT seems to be pretty popular. That is who all the other folks in my family use for alarm services. I just maintain a relatively low profile and have campground managers that know exactly who belongs here and who doesn't. Between them and my neighbors I feel my place is pretty safe when I'm gone. When I'm here... Well, I'm from Texas and we have ways of dealing with such issues. biggrin biggrin

The world always looks different from ground level. You did a good job of capturing it.
