Accepted

The Madera County Art Council notified me that the following pieces have been accepted into their Ag Art Show.

Loves Cotton, Loves To Knit oil painting by Jana Botkin
Loves Cotton, Loves To Knit, 8×8″ oil painting

This will be in the category of Row Crops. It ought to give people pause as they look at pictures of alfalfa and broccoli.

oil painting of pomegranate
Great For Jelly, 10×10″ oil painting

Pomegranates have their own category. I think Madera produces quite a few and has a festival of pomegranates. This might be the 40th painting I’ve done of pomegranates, but it got a real title instead of a numbered series name.

Great For Pies, pumpkin oil painting by Jana Botkin
Great For Pies, 10×10″ oil painting

 

This will be in the category of Vines, which is usually dominated by grapes, vineyards, and wine pictures.  Guess it will stand out – sure hope so!

P.S. I’m not talking about the pieces that weren’t accepted. It will taint them, they will get a complex, and you will not want to buy them.

  1. Melissa, either they will find a home or they will get a new coat of paint!

    Carol, isn’t it bizarre that someone as much into teals and blues is painting everything orange??

    Cheryl, if I can’t be knitting, painting yarn is a good second best activity!

  2. Congrats, Jana! Especially like the yarn painting. Very cool!

  3. Dang, chick! You’ve got all things orange down!
