H - E Double Hockey Sticks kind of Week

Boy is wes ready for Caturday!

About a zillion years ago, Mom gotted tired of the UGLY aluminum garage door and she painted a mural on it.

She has had to touch it up a few times. When Mom and Dad talked about buying an automatic door, the neighbors said "Only if you paint the mural on the new door!"

Fast forward a few years... The gutters on the house had to be replaced and Dad never did that. The front steps was falling apart from the rain and the snow. Alex put up new gutters and him and Mom fixed the front steps a few weeks ago. They has been waiting for the steps to drys out completely before they painted the steps. On the long Labor Day weekend (plus an extra day on Tuesday), Mom painted the railing and did a mural to match the garage on the steps! 

Mom still has to paint the steps, but she is pretty happy with the bear. But she still has to put in the middle ground, however she is having trouble finding brown enamel. Wes is thinking some smoky blurry trees might work instead.
After she painted the mural, she came in and helped Moona and mes does Tickled on Tuesday. 

Wednesday work blew up! And there was problems with Dad's S-Tate....
Mom has been sulky (and whiny and weepy). Wes could nots gets her to blog!
Before Alex left to Calgary, he did some photoshoots to gets Mom out of her funk. 
He did some great shots with leaves and Kozmo. Wes thought they would be purrfect for Artsy Caturday with Athena
This week Athena looks purrticular fetching! Wes shall has to try that Brushstroke app when wes gets a chance.
Yous can click on her button to goes to her website and sees all the other great art!
 

Here is our extra special art!

#1 is Kozmo and Angled Stokes!


#2, we added some extra leaves, gave them some hue and saturation and vibrancy and (lastly) wes added a cutout filter to the whole picture.

#3 is #2 with a diffuse glow!


We likes it the best! Wes thinks it makes him looks magically ethereal!

 And wes did a puzzle of #2

  8. We would love to live near you and your Mom because it would be so fun to see all her artwork in the neighborhood! Maybe after she retires someday she can hire herself out to be a neighborhood muralist! Kozmo is looking very . . . mysterious, ha ha meow! He was a good sport! We hope all the S-tate problems that is making your Mom sad get straightened out quick XOXOXO

  11. Mom and I enjoyed the mural and the steps as well. Your talent is loved and appreciated thru the blogosphere. Mom hurts for you during the H-E-Double Hockey sticks week and times. In some of the ways, she very much understands but most of all, it matters to her how you are.
