P IS FOR...

...P is for...a Plethora of Photos

Although the first one is a picture...

PARROT ... a small story behind this. I have done a lot of Painting but I'm absolutely tied to reproducing every detail of every Picture. If you take a look at my other blog you will see what I mean. A very kind friend saw a Packet of art Paper at a sale, which was about the size of the pictures I usually paint (5" x 7"). However when she got it home she found it was for oil Painting which I have no idea how to do. She gave me the Paper anyway and I decided to try it out with my Prismacolor pencils. It came out with a kind of Pebbled effect which I kind of liked, so I decided to branch out - Wow for me - and try something in a more Primitive style of Picture. I was actually thinking of the Maori kind of Painting that is done with little dots. Well that didn't work out and this is what I ended up with. Very different from my usual style.

PONDERING... (or if it were 'M' day...Moth Meditating.)

(MOTH being the MAN OF THE HOUSE).

PLEASE ADOPT ME...

So many sweet kittens, so many homes needed.  There are now three of us at the church who have adopted cats from the local animal shelter.  We are all so Pleased and happy with our adoptees I think we will have to start a cat-lovers circle!  Nobody wants to sit with us because we all talk cats!

PINK GRASS...

 I love this stuff I think it is so PRETTY.  The city Planted quite a bit of this in different Places around town.  This grouping is on the next block to the church.

A PAIR of doves...

I took this PAIR a couple of years ago on our balcony in Kauai as they were sheltering from a heavy downpour.  They did not look happy.  They are the first thing you hear as you come out of the airport.  Their very pretty, soft cooing is to me an absolutely typical Hawaiian sound.

PEEKING..."Where'd he go?"

Squirrell watching in Idaho.

PATTERN...

One of the Prettiest Patterns I've seen.  I like it so much I've kept this Photo for about five years.  It was on the drapes of a place where we were staying  in England. Don't know what I'll do with it, but it is very Pleasing.

Prismacolor Pencils...

I know I have posted this before but I think it is one of my best Photos.  It happened by chance. It was when I was just starting to do some art work a couple of years ago.  I sat and sharpened about 40 pencils then just gathered them up and put them in this container and this is how they fell into place.  I couldn't have arranged them better if I'd tried!

So that's 'P' for ABC Wednesday. Now who's up for "Q"???

It's getting harder and harder but we still have about one hundred bloggers who Participate in this Project.  People come up with amazing contributions, even after nine rounds!  Please click on the link to investigate.
