Soon It Will be Pumpkin Time


 Are you ready for the next few weeks? School starts, Labor Day, and then the Fall Holidays.

If you grow a garden you know things are gettin' ready to get ready. The blooms are gone the fruit is popping. The Corn has tasseled and the rabbit and raccoon are watching what to eat. The squirrels are nesting and building for winter.

We painters are moving our canvases around and are ready for a fall show. People want to have their fall decor set out. I can teach you  how to if you want to learn the basic of these baby's.

  They grow in every gourd position they can. Mostly round and squat. Some are tall,  I know they have a giant pumpkin contest in New York or New Hampshire. I suppose in the south and western USA also has a contest, 500 LB pumpkins are not unusual.

Once again I use the opposite color or the complementary of the orange, red and yellows. It creates drama in the painting. I added the shadow and high lights for effect.

Keep your pumpkins growing and your brushes wet.
