I have not started the next painting, because I was busy last week making packets for our congregational meeting, then I got sick on Monday, and on Wednesday, when I thought I was getting better, I threw my back out.
Before all this started, I started a double batch of homemade apple cider vinegar and I thought it made a nice photo.
If anyone is interested, I can do a detailed post on it in the future.
Also, today was supposed to be “Snowmageddon”, but nothing spectacular thus far. We might wake up to a world encased in ice, however. Here is what it looks like as of 5:00 p.m. today.
How do you like my bird feeder scuplture? LOL! It is a piece of firewood that I liked the look of and it weighs down the saucer so that the birds can’t knock it off the table.
Well, I hope to have a WIP for you in the next post.
I hope you all are well.
P.S. Remember the portrait swap? The portrait that I did is below:
Normally, I don’t allow anyone to see the reference photo, but in this swap one of the requirements was to show the reference and it didn’t hurt too much, so I thought I would share it here.
This is the portrait that he did of me:
This is the first portrait that anyone has done of me, that I can remember. I am looking forward to next year’s portrait swap.
By the way, sometimes I choose quotes just because they resonate with me. Sometimes, I choose them because they just sound nifty. Sometimes, I have no idea why I choose the particular quote that I do. Sometimes, it actually has something to do with the post. This one? I just liked it. LOL!

The picture you did was really great. Now, you need to get back into it.
