Yes it is and Jon has lived there for 30 years, so he's not too keen going back. Thanks for the suggestion!

Thankyou so much Ginger and Jon. This painting is stunning. ✨✨

Ginger, thank you to both you and your daughter, Cinnamon, for being so openly transparent with sharing and teaching acrylic art online. Your witty humor, along with easy to follow lessons, make falling in love with painting~ so worthwhile!

You're right, Ginger. It does come up 'live' before you think, and we get to hear some very amusing comments or conversations before the 'Live button' obviously shows up. But it just adds to the fun, and I, for one, love how casual and candid this show is.

I am learning so much .... and laughing the whole time. incidentally Ginger, you are right you are live before the live button shows you live... but I have to admit I have come to look forward to the PRESHOW SHOW as much as the actually show.... I cannot thank you enough for passing along your knowledge. There are several people in my circle who have lost loved ones. I have been taking what I learn from you, inviting those ladies over for lunch and paint time and passing along what I am learning from you. Watching their hearts find a little touch of joy again is so very awesome and you have unknowingly played a big part in that as well.. You have such a beautiful heart for sharing Thank you both!!

Hi Ginger and Jon! Better late than never - they say! I finally got around to watch the Lighthouse in a storm painting! I really like this! And the limited pallett makes it easier for those who do not own so many colours (like me... lol) On a dark and stormy night I might try this one! :-D Love and light from rainy Norway!

Thank you very much Billy. The trick of any painting, dark or not is to have the right balance of light. Every once in awhile take a black and white photo of your work and make sure you have good contrast and not jus t over all gray tones.

Sometimes my water falls off the planet LOL. But no kidding, I enjoyed this and always learn.

should be fine.

on about translating what you are seeing, I was in the supermarket today and as we were paying for our groceries I noticed two women packing there groceries they had already paid for into different bags etc, over by the window where there is a sort of shelf for people who still have to sort their shopping out even when they have paid for it. So I was watching these women and near them was a clear plastic tub full of mixed sweets, (candy to you USA citizens) both women left and I said to the girl serving us at the cash register, someone's forgotten their tub of sweets and pointed to the tub. She smiled at me and said, that's not sweets it's a tub to dispense used batteries for customers :) lol. I think I need to wear glasses.

Ginger and John, when you showed the rental wishing well, do you realize, that anyone could have stopped the video, traced it from the screen ( which acts like a light box) and you have lost money. Just trying to help. warmest wishes Sue Woulfe

Interesting about the screen acting as a light box. If someone is skilled enough to paint this with out the detailed instruction, color mixing, and paint order of the layers.... we wish them well. ( no pun intended) Especially if $3 is over their budget too....
