The Everyday Matters Challenge #107 was to draw how we get our news. We have The Oregonian delivered daily and it is dropped on our driveway. It's not a very good paper, but it's the only real option in town.
This second drawing/painting I did this week is from a photo I took of rental surfboards in Hawaii last year. It was a very shady spot and I was trying to show the shade without losing the color of the boards. I LOVE the colors of Hawaii - especially the water.
Here in Portland we've had rain, gray skies, and cold. Blech!

Nice work Emma, I think you've replicated the shade very well in the surfboard painting. And the newspaper is very, very good, too. I was perusing your site and really like your salt and pepper painting, and your comments.
Your newspaper is just great!! I love those surfboards with the shadows. It looks wonderful!!
Great job on the newspaper and I can feel the tradewinds as I study the surfboards. My mom and sisters live in and around Vancouver, WA I know what you mean about the rain and the blech. Maybe we can connect next time I visit them.
Oooh ... your surfboards! What a GREAT painting! It just takes you away from the rain and cold ...
:-)
nice job on these...and hey it was the same weather down here in the sawth but it did clear up enough for a nice meal on the back porch finally!
I have family in Milwaukie and yep - The Oregonian is the only paper - LOL!
You did a marvelous job on the paper and on the colorful surfboards!
Great sketches Emma. I LOVE your style.
Emma, I like your drawings, nice style.
Lovely newspaper and I love the composition of the surfboard pic.
Nice work, Emma!
