This is another challenge from Karin Jurick's Different Strokes From Different Folks website. Check out how many different artists interpret the same subject. The challenge the week before was the New York Stock Exchange. I didn't post on my blog site, but you can go to the Different Strokes site and check it out. Boy, that was a hard one!

OK, you may be getting sick of me but this Karin Jurick Different Strokes from Different Folks Challenge is too fun! I would have never looked at this enormous sculpture and wanted to paint it but leave it to Karin to push us out of our comfort zone! Go to http://www.differentstrokesfromdifferentfolks.blogspot.com to check out all the entries. See if you can spot what I left out! ugh!

Ahhhh! I love fall, and I love this new "challenge" I have been participating in... one of my favorite artists, Karin Jurick, has very generously created a blog where artists from all over paint the same object- once a week. She then posts it with links to all the artists websites!!! Can you believe the exposure she is sharing?? The website is http://www.differentstrokesfromdifferentfolks.blogspot.com/ You can go to Karin's website from there. Please check it out when you have some time- it is a treat!
