Yesterday Hubby picked up i.d. tickets for the things for the things my daughters and I were intering in the fair, so we had them all filled out before hand for a change. It made getting them entered soooo much easier today.
They were supposed to be judged by 2pm, but because of the amount of photogrpaphy entered this year they are still not done and it's after 3. And to thnik My oldest 2 didn't enter any pictures, and only one of my younger 2 entered pictures and she didn't enter in all catagories. Only I entered in all catagories from the family this year.
Anyway, I'm sitting here at the library trying to not be nervous (but it's fail, lol). I am excited!
I entered 14 pictures: The catagories under Color and B/W are the same: Senic, Portriat, Candid, Flowers, Animals, Computer Enhanced and Misc. I also entered paintings in all catagories (same catagories as pictres).
I also entered a bookcase I painted (folk art on wood) and the board I painted and framed with a very old window (recycled decorative item).
My daughters that entered were in the 15 and Under Division. The youngest entered a painting and that was it. (Only one catagory for painting for Under 15). My oldest of the younger two entered a painting also. She also entered 4 pictures.
Ok, so now it's 3:11pm... do you think they are done? lol

I finished my ocean painting.

The wave was great, but wrong scale so I mixed up the paints, closed my eyes and painted over it. I also made the land look futher away. I am thinking about moving the land to behind the lighthouse and "erase" the land at the bottom since it doesn't seem to be working.

Wishful thinking for July. lol

Happy 4th of July!

I currently do not have internet at home. Bummer.

I think I'm finished with the painting...
