Make it Chili and corn bread.

OKAY.  I am done.  It is not as I envisioned, not real thrilled.  The wife and neighbor like it.  What do they know?

Jerry, an artist is never really happy with his finished piece.  He always sees the flaws, but others just see the finished picture.  An artist could 'tweak' it to death!  It's great as it is, most people can't even draw!!!   lol

I like it too. Its surreal.
If you want it more natural, you can keep playing with it. One thing about paint - you can keep adding.
Da Vince was reported to have kept Mona Lisa with him and worked on it until his death. :)

Thanks all.  I am glad you folks like it. Yes, LuAnn I get picky, picky when it comes to this kind of thing.  I am not picky at all when it comes to garden, pond and most things.

it's not that I don't like.  It's because it is not as I envisioned.  So dissapointed might be a better word.

Jerry, I don't think you should be disappointed. You did a great job and I'm not just being nice, I'm being truthful. I wish I had the time and money to do some painting. The talent runs in my family. My grandfather was a painter, and my mother was a painter, and when I was younger, I use to sketch and paint. Mainly landscapes.
Happy ponding,

If you think that your question is dumb, imagine how totally stupid you will look if you don't ask it.

  The wife and neighbor like it.  What do they know?

I beg to differ...after all, your wife has some Nebraska blood, she has to have good taste.  :D

It truly is sharp, Jerry.

Love your patio Jerry.  You are so talented.

Isn't it great to be able to say "I did it myself"!
