Hi, its been a silly week, silly in the way I have made so many mistakes. Messed up my large
Walking in the Rain painting, now have to wait for it to dry before I can hopefully save it...... basically that is just one example of my week.........so next week had darn well be better. Another thing is I coloured my hair chestnut brown and used the enclosed conditioner, my hair looked as if it had been put in the grease pot, not a good look can assure you. But its all OK now...........phew.........

Taken from Walter De La Mare's poem The Ghost
But have put her outside the house, looking in |
This is a page from my Art Practice book, the words are digital. All I have to do is to work out how to write this all down freehand..............but not this week..............lol
Thank you for popping in, am off to Art Class Friday morning, just hope the piece I have been working on to finish off in class doesn't go pear shaped. Enjoy the weekend and take care of yourselves. Hugs Annette x

Hope next week is better for you Netty. I'm sure your painting in the rain will be okay. Nice job and great quote. Love it. Thanks.
Yay, Netty. Your "ghost" is beautiful. I can't imagine what you did to Walking in the Rain, but I hope you can remedy any accidental damage.
She is really beautiful Annette, i hope next week is better for you

We all have weeks like yours, like they say, when it rains it pours! Great painting here by the way!!
You poor dear...what a week! Hope you can fix 'walking in the rain', and so happy that your hair is okay! This ghost painting is lovely, my friend. Thanks for sharing it with us!
I like to think there is no such thing as a mistake...only happy accidents. Making mistakes means you are learning and that's a good thing. Hope next week is better for you. Hugs ~ Rhonda♥
She is beautiful, Love her skin tone with all the dark!
your ghostly face is wonderful, you are such a versatile artist
hugs
A really haunting piece, Netty - and the words are simply wonderful too! Do hope Walking in the Rain will revive successfully - wishing you well with it...

Oh Annette - I do love this and I mean LOVE. My favorite book from my youth is WUTHERING HEIGHTS and that was my first thought when I saw this piece. Fabulous Sugar -- well I do have my dark side, what can I say?!?

This is a real stunner Annette, love her eyes, her expression is awesome and the sentiment is beautiful. You can Google search how to make your own rub on letters using your printer. I found 1 here.

She is so beautiful and her face so expressive!
Wonderfully spooky Netty, painted so sensitively with lots of feeling. Hope you have a good weekend and better fortune next week. much love x
My handwriting is horrible and I can' even read it! This is so ghostly and gorgeous all at the same time! Love it! Hugs!
Thanks for stopping by my blog! Hope your week improves. I am finding that by putting words on digitally, I am inspired as to how I want to do it in real life - either by hand, printing out the words, rubber stamping or what ever. I enjoy that aspect of using digital to spruce up my art. God bless.

Wow, fabulous painting.
OH dear, I know that kind of week you're talking about... and to have hair issues on top of that... I can empathize. But now you've had your share of "ugh" days,so next week can only be better with no ghosts to bother you;-)
Love this painting. It is very beautiful. Her eyes say so much. Fantastic.
Lovely painting Netty, beautiful blue on the background and great and creative composition. Well done you! X
Oh what an intriguingly eerie mysterious painting you have created with this lady. Great work. Hope next week is better for you.
Lovely painting, I remember learning that verse at school! Hope next week will be better! Valerie
You know I have those weeks every week don't you... and I love this painting so don't you dare much it up !!! the delicate work on the face and the light against the dark makes it so striking...xx
She is just totally awesome- ethereal. Happy PPF.
I'm sorry to hear you had a bad week too, but God willing it'll be 100% better next week. I love you portrait. Blessings!
Sorry to hear about your Walking in the rain-painting. But I'm sure you'll manage to save it. Love your painting this week, very nostalgic .... Happy PPF!
so sorry about the rain painting you have to save it!
Lovely painting this week anyway.
Very moody and inspiring piece. Hope you enjoyed today's class. Happy PPF
When any work creates feelings is that it is good, this work of yours has me chills. saludos
Before I even read the words, I thought, "What a haunting piece!" Lovely.
Happy Paint Party Friday

Oh, and I was thinking of coloring my hair this afternoon. Now you have me worried!

Really love the painting. Have a great week end.
Lovely work love the mystery. Hope next week is better for you.
Oh she is a spooky one, you have achieved a great effect here Netty, this has such atmosphere, gets me feeling of dark Autumn/Winter nights. Have yourself a restful and good week-end! xx
very dark and spooky, love it! have a great weekend!
Well my dear this one is lovely...really gorgeous!! We all have nasty weeks where the energy is just wrong.... I'm sure you'll repair it on a good week!!

Years ago I dyed my hair and it turned dark green. Had to go to work with it that color. Everyone just kept looking at me not knowing what to say. Took 4 hours at the beauty shop to get it out. LOL
Love this painting . You really are talented my dear.
Oh Annette - this is eerie in the most wonderful way! This reminds me so much of Sophies Choice when I first look at it and when I read the style of English....it reminds me of so many movies that speak of what she speaks...the pain, the suffering, the misconceptions...I believe you can do anything you want...rain or sunshine! You just seem like that type of gal. I believe in "you!" Lovies, Samara
Love your ghost Netty. Her attire and eyes are my favorite. Hope you have a super creative time next week.
