Beddow’s Pond

Taking another long walk through my neighborhood, I had to just sit for a while to take in the view of my neighbor’s pond, knowing full well I was going to go home and try to paint this most beautiful vision. Oh my,  it was just breathtaking with the light hitting it.

  2. Now that’s a fishing spot. I could spend all day there and never catch a thing. Great picture. Thanks for the visit to my site.

    • I know what your saying…And I do believe that Mr. Beddow’s keeps it stocked.
      There a a several pond on the road I live on, but only this one had the more interesting background. But that could have just been how the light was hitting it too.
      And you are welcome…Didn’t even know you had a site. I didn’t even know you had one till the other day.
      Thank you for the comment!

  4. You captured well the light rays shining down. Even with Gimp I have trouble getting special effects. You did good on this one as always. Lucky neighbours to have such a peaceful looking spot on their property..

    • Sometime you just have to use several different programs to get the effects you are looking for. Just save your work, then open in another.
      Thank you for the lovely comment on my painting, Tony!

    • Hiya, Charlotte. We’ll be back there is just a few short months.
      You like this style, eh. It’s digital painting. I rather enjoy it very much and it’s a perfect medium to use at the beach this summer since it does not make a mess…lol But I’ll still be working with my other mediums too.
      See you soon.
      Thank for the commenting on my painting, Char!

  6. Hey Deb .. You can try to use google translator when you understand more .. I’m using it to many friends who talk itaienska or Turkish, it is a lot of fun with friends around the world .. I understand English but sometimes it’s a bit difficult to answer but it works .. I have a little vacation now, then they get a little work then I get more time .. I’m glad you’re my friend deb .. have a nice week Hugs XXX Nicki

    • For some reason Google translate had completely slipped my mind. What language is it that you speak, Nikki. Looking for to translate you blog so I can read it.

  7. I’m kinda afraid of the dark so I wouldn’t go there alone. Just so you know. 😀

    Beautiful painting anyway. I’m sorry, I wish I could say more but it’s just so perfect. The light effect is stunning! Bravo, Deb!!! Hugs.

    • I don’t usually take walks in the evening alone…Just not safe. Around here in this remote area I live in, it probably is safe, but one never really knows.
      Thank you for such a lovely comment on my painting.

  11. It’s like you live in Eden. Are you sure this is North Carolina? 🙂

    Reply
    • No George, not North Carolina. I’m in North Carolina in a Spring and Summer. Right now I’m in West Virginia.
      Eden?…In some places, yes, it does seem that way.
      Thanks for commenting, George…I always appreciate it!

  17. What an amazing scenery!! What is more amazing is how you manage to paint it just from memory.

    Reply
    • When I look at a scenery that I want to paint, I study it. I pick out the main attracting points of what I’m looking at (whatever catches my eye the most). I don’t worry about every little detail. If I wanted to try to get in every little thing I would have to take a picture of it. And even then, I would not get is everything.
      Thank you for that lovely comment about my painting, Novroz!
      Hugs, xx

  18. Absolutely gorgeous, Deb… I love those cascading rays of light you’ve created and how they seem to bounce off the water! Such a realistic feeling of ‘depth’ too! Just wonderful, Ms. A!

  20. Another movingly moody piece. The romance of light and dark here is captivating

  21. You’ve captured this brilliantly, it’s like a suspense effect the way the light shines.

    Hows your wee Cici doing Deb.. I read somewhere he had to go to the vet?
    I hope he is okay now.
    It’s hartbreaking when they are feeling sick.
    Well I hope all is well.

    Good sunday to you
    hugs Traceyx

    • Yes, she got very sick (both ends) and had to go to the hospital. She had the same symptoms as 2 months ago. The last time after the hospital visit I brought her home, this time I took her to my vet the after the hospital. The Vet ran lots of tests to rule things out. The Vet narrowed it down to two things, which will be discover while she is on her new prescription food diet. If she doesn’t get anther one of these attacks as she had twice over the last 2 months, the it would be dietary, if she does, it is autoimmune.
      Right now she is doing well, running, playing, barking. and trying to tell me what to do…Being her old self…Lol

      Thank you for the comment on my painting, and asking about my little Cici…I was so worried about her.
      Good Sunday to you too, my friend!
      Hugs, Deb xx
