Peanuts & an owl

Peanuts & an owl

It is like one of those games where you have to find an object. Do you see the owl?
I painted this. I painted every single brick in watercolor. I had a show, along with my uncle & mother, that painting was the first I sold. I took this photograph in downtown Birmingham. (Alabama) The peanut place is quite famous. The road I am standing on has the original cobblestones.
The windows are melting. I thought glass was a solid, but I was told it moves, maybe that was then, I wonder if the glass they make now moves.
It would be a shame if it didn’t.

      Oh, gosh…that is the photo of the painting that I used to see it without being there. I will post the painting if I have a copy & we’ll see how well I did. Sorry for the misunderstanding…amy

      1. hey
        lo siento – it was late last night when i looked at it, and perhaps i misread it! i wondered how in the world you mastered such photorealism!

        i’m still glad that your painting was well received! z

        I posted the painting, badly, because at the end. I’m so sick of them I think that I never want to see them again. I posted a picture of a picture :p so you could see what the painting looked like.

      3. great! i now get daily updates on the blogs that post more than one image per day, as the connection is too slow for me to keep up with the inbox!

        i haven’t pulled up the reader, as it’s slow in the daytime as well!

        i’m going there now!

      5. i’ve enjoyed all of those watercolors.. the zebra and the lures were really nice, and then the connection slowed down and won’t open any more pages! i fear that the rest will have to wait til night when people start shutting down computers, and i have more ‘banda ancha’ band width.

        now let’s hope there’s enough juice to send this to you!

    I thought that old glass flowed downwards as well, but I’ve been told that it’s not true. I prefer to keep to my understanding…

      I think it is obvious that we are right by the evidence on the picture!!!
