Down By The River Side




This week I've been taking every road I know that crosses the Ogeechee River trying to find a 'Kodak moment' for an exhibition coming up at the end of May that'll benefit a local organization called The RiverKeepers. They're dedicated to cleaning up our local river, and our art association wanted to draw attention to them and raise a little money in the process.

The above three are the best ones so far. Each person can submit up to three works of art for entry into the exhibition. If they sell, a portion of the proceeds will go to the RiverKeepers organization. I love entering these local contests! Wish me luck or good providence.

I like the top two. I love that red cabin with the Spanish moss hanging down, and the bridge and bright water. Lovely, Debbie.

Thanks, MK. I'll definitely enter the first one. It looks better in person than it does on my blog, for some reason.

That top one is my favorite, too. The river looks so mysterious to me...

It's so lush and inviting, that river!
I think I see Ratty and his boat in the reeds.
Beautiful!

Hello Debbie,

Thank you for the comment regarding my silk sewing noise! Isn't it the truth...sew or read? I do wish I could do both at once. I have at times enjoyed listening to books on tape while I sew.

Have a great day!

I wish you luck. It's hard to choose which of the three is my favorite, perhaps the middle one for is extraordinarily peaceful mood.

I like the pic with the wood ladder nailed onto the tree in the water. That would be fun to jump off! Best wishes on your contest.
