Barn

These last few days have been, as usual, very hectic, but somehow I've managed to squeeze out some time to attempt another water colour painting for a challenge taken from this photo at a nice website for painting enthusiasts . Going by the quality of entries, I hav'nt really got any hope of winning, but the very idea of a deadline and the urge to do some thing un-mommyish for a change were the spur to paint this

Baby feeder and nappy changer? Absolutely loved your bio. Water Colours are never easy and yours is a neat attempt.

Blinded Locations,

Thanks, that very high praise indeed, though I don't think Im that good :) Painting is a relatively recent love of mine,
and I dabble in it occasionally just to satisfy myself. Going by your comment, I'd say that you should give it a try too!

Purba,

The nappy changer bit is going to end soon, hopefully :D.Thanks for the praise on the painting ,water colours are indeed tricky, and Im trying to teach myself, at the rate of one or two paintings a month.

Too Good. More than your painting i love your introduction which is crisp yet speaks a lot.

You now have a regular follower from now on!

Very lovely art work. And with water colors I don't think it is that easy. First time at your blog. Loved it. Clean, minimal, yet pretty.

Best wishes!

Viyoma,

Harsha,

Thanks :D
