Thursday Art Date With Rain ... In the Water





In the water naturally 





















In the Water for fun ...
















Reflections in the Water













Working in the Water






Art in the Water

















I do a cartoon for my son at Christmas every year usually focusing on something that has happened to him during the year ... Just for fun :).  All of these are digital creations, some in a combination with sketches, some in combination with my photos.  We lived on a lake for 15 years after we retired so the hardest part of this prompt was limiting the number of photos ... and believe it or not, this is a limited amount of what I had to choose from :(  

Stay well, stay dry and enjoy the wonderful warm weather and the possibilities of our world starting to open up again.  And, don't be fooled ... stay safe :)

Andrea, your digital art pieces are so much fun! I love your sense of humour, the shark one and the one over the falls made me really laugh! Your photos are so lovely, how nice to have lived on the lake so long. I love seeing all the turtles!!! :)

Andrea,

Amazing job for 'in the water'. This time of year everyone wants to be in the water to keep cool. I'm not much of a swimmer but when I'm outdoors, what I wouldn't give to jump into a nice cool pool of water. Maybe our next home will have a pool or a community pool that I can enjoy. :)
