Florida granny Posted September 26, 2019 Share Posted September 26, 2019 Oh boy, this is going to be a tough choice! I might have to stop at the buffet lunch, pick up some sustenance like cheese, crackers, some fruit, some nuts, some chicken strips, some brownies... while I give the sketches some thought.

Most of that sounds yummy to me! I think I’ll join you, maybe add a bit of hummus and bring more of everything! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alsoarty Posted September 26, 2019 Share Posted September 26, 2019 I seriously don’t yet have an idea for this one. But getting back to the movies... I watched Mamma Mia 2 this afternoon ,my hormones are all over the place right now. Wyatt come over to my house and was cuddled up to me. The last song Meryl Streep sings at the baby blessing is so so beautiful.. got a few tears in my eyes. He says there is something in your eye Nana, let me get it... and rubs my eyes with his blanket.... oh my heart. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t feel like an expert at the moment. I’ve tried several different photos and didn’t like any of them. Love sugar snap peas with hummus. Never tried broccoli. I also love hummus with my avocado toast. ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alsoarty Posted September 27, 2019 Share Posted September 27, 2019 And so I had a shower, got Amanda up and dressed, fed her, baked a loaf of bread, did 2 loads of laundry... and OOPS ... I forgot to post todays post. Better late than never huh? 27th Sept Who was it who decided to redecorate the veranda? You are lucky that the lodge owners like the changes you made. Add something art related to your layout. When you have finished your layout post it in the ScrapGirls Retreat Gallery. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alsoarty Posted September 27, 2019 Share Posted September 27, 2019 HERE is my layout - I used an action - bought online - to create the sketchy look, and then used a painterly overlay to give it some brush strokes. This is what the original photo looked like. The painted canvas overlay is my art related bit I added. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grandmadori Posted September 27, 2019 Share Posted September 27, 2019 Don't know how good of a student I was, I think I kind of took my piece in another direction. Mine is Only the Beginning Here is the photo I started with. I added a paint box to my layout to represent visual arts, although my subject is the art of dance, and I have music on the page as well. ?

Florida granny Posted September 27, 2019 Share Posted September 27, 2019 I went with the black and white sketch. I planned to make a black and white layout but got thrown by the "add something art related". In the end, I changed my photo to a sketch and added a charcoal pencil. I also kept the original photo as part of the layout. Whew! Here's my SG Retreat LO #11 Now to join all of you who are lounging around the veranda. I could definitely use some lounging time!

Boatlady Posted September 27, 2019 Share Posted September 27, 2019 I made two from the sketch. Art-horse and Retreat#10-CubanArt. Now I can really relax on the veranda. The snacks sound wonderful. See you there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jane in N.Z Posted September 28, 2019 Share Posted September 28, 2019 I'll go for the B&W sketch but I found this difficult as so tired tonight as had a busy 2 days. I was painting the spare bedroom today so not guilty of doing the veranda but whoever did it its fabulous and such a nice place to lounge around in. I added a black crayon to this LO of Scout Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MariJ Posted September 28, 2019 Share Posted September 28, 2019 I’m going to be sorry to see this relaxing time end. Anyone have any plans for a weekend get-together? The snack party was great! It looks like a gorgeous day outside maybe we can picnic and relax by the water? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
