En Plein air... or pesky sticky beaks

Bright happy colors. I like it very much.

lovely painting…nothing beats painting outdoors….

had a good laugh at this….....well done!!!! what is the person with the red cloth in his hand!!! perhaps scaring the cows!!!!

thanks everybody, this is exactly how it is . only get testy if they come and sit in front right in the view .also and bump my arm which has happened! and make inane comments ..like do you like painting?

Shylie well of course these are not real people, but yes he is [trying ] shooing of the cows!

Had a giggle at this ginny…..

thanks Pat

part of this is true! that pest of a brush turkey eating my lunch and the noisy minor in the way [on the easel]

unreal Ginny..how creative..your paintings have a great deal to say..I like that about your work

Another wonderful and unusual painting lovely and delicate colours.I can not paint outside or even inside if someone is watching me.(OK so its a little strange)

nice….love the brightness….a happy piece

Great work, ginny! Wish I had half your talent!

Jayne, you are such an inpiration to me , you must be a great motivational speaker!??

Oh dear sword..many thanks I don’t mind people as long as they are painting too, had years of group get togethers.Hate it when people come in to my “playroom” and just want to chat.
thanks Donna and Brad oh It’s a struggle all the time, so it never feels like I have any talent.

Cheerful and colorful – made me smile…

oh this wonderful art

Wonderful Ginny! Love the colors.

thanks rj,cynthia and Beatriz. much fun doing these pics

What a wonderful painting Ginny!!! I would have liked to have been there! Really nice piece!

Love love love this!!! Awesome!!!

What a great picture – even the cows are having a gander at what you’re doing. Thanks for adding this to the Brisbane group.

An interesting approach to self-portraiture …. very well done!

thanks Kimberly I love doing funny life! not enough time though!

Michelle thankyou! Heheh cows are the biggest sticky beaks! also the noisy minor .

the original title which is written on the painting , in pen is

but it won’t win the Archibald will it? a comment a bloke said to me while watching me paint!
obviously the only art he knew about.
[note to os people the Archibald is a portrait prize and I was drawing a creeper growing up an old shed]

thanks Dave we were crossing comments! so missed yours, My husband asked me how I knew what I looked like from behind …I mentioned mirror!

Fantastic idea ginnymac…a great piece of work!!!

thanks Poppy, wonderful of you to comment.

lovely. You’ve inspired me to go back and do some art…

wow I am really flattered! Hope to see some of the results here ….......soon!

Good one ginnymac, made me smile, and wish I could paint like you.

Shock this photo
A dreamscape to me…as everything on your photo.
So beautiful nature surrounding you.
This is a beautiful image if a shock is needed to provoke it, let it be.

wow….this is a great one ginnymac!! ohhh…I wish I cud paint like this….BEAUTIFUL WORK!!

Great work, great detail.

This is a wonderful artwork. The composition, colors, activity and bright airy feel to it makes for a fantastic painting. Reading your comments on the people and process of this paint I can totally identified with you.. same thing for me when I place a tripod and take shots. I like how this is a very creative self portrait of you painting already a landscape. A fave for me…. I just love the story and feel of this artwork. :-)

Fantastic your work.

thanks ginnmac i wish you did too, i have a real pal in ozzieland, i,d love to see her and hir hubby, they live in noosa? where ever that is? i have done about 200 plates and vases, they are fun to do, but sadly for all the time you put into them, you can,t get you time invested back in selling them, but i did them for my late wife, i love art and haved tried all the different ways i made some busts too, just to have them well, again thanks for you words and have a great art life, i have!!

glad to hear your are very close to a pal of mine, she is a lovely lady,she moved there from finnland, many years ago,and is a artsit too. i told her about redb, and she has just joined,hey keep your art coming, i am in love with your colors and views

I love paintings with paintings with in it seems to some how add time to the image Its like adding proof that the image did exist before the painting was done .. does this make sense ,? its kind of hard to ex plain. Any way I have checked out all of your art here on rb what a terriffic collection,very impressive and varied as well and being so varied means you or your art will NEVER brcome boring and you paint in real time and that makes art invalueable. great stuff ,,keep on arting..

chamo, I am deeply touched by your wonderful comments. I do know what you mean about a painting within a painting.Regarding a varied collection,thankyou ,I never seem to be able to paint the same way from one day to the next. I guess like most painters I am always looking for ‘my’ way of doing works. Although I really blame the canvases the quality and what you can buy changes all the time. ...
so I never really know what will happen.

wow this is such a vibrant and happy photo. full of life…
lovely.

Love this little band of people, they made me smile. You have a great style of painting.

This work inspired me to go on a “paint out” with some friends and despite being bitten by bugs, harassed by March flies and a few rain showers, it was most enjoyable and I managed to get a couple of nice sketches done. So thanks for that ginnymac!

LOL, that must be annoying! Lovely painting!

Wow Ginny I absolutely love this ! It is so vibrant and full of whimsy. It tells a wonderful story and is uniquely you.

Congratulations on your top ten placing in You. The artist at work challenge Please add this work into the artrageous group for featuring :-)
