Hi gang @wakelys @grammyn @summerfield @serendypyty @theredcamera @salza @Casablanca @jacqbb @monikozi probably need to get back to tutorials but I enjoyed doing this instead of watching the snooker!!

Thank you Ann @olivetreeann I love this photo, sorry I didn't do it justice

@30pics4jackiesdiamond Oh. Well done. I think this is a fabulous accomplishment to have replicated it so nicely with no tutorial! The windows are perfect and the shutters and porch roof remarkable. Fabulous light and shadows too!

@30pics4jackiesdiamond loving your doorway and detail of the window. A much greater accomplishment than watching snooker!!

@grammyn @wakelys - if kathy @randystreat couldn't understand what jackie's saying half the time, i have a hard time figuring out what she's writing or typing. 😂 i always would have to read it twice! katy's talk to type seems easier to me, so it must boil down to the accent! @30pics4jackiesdiamond

what a brave soul you are, jaxter, taking on something sans a tutorial and making the image your own. bravo! and aces!

@grammyn Thank you!! I just copied it Katy!! But couldn't match the colours.

Nice recreation.
@summerfield - muller: to defeat or utterly destroy. I have to look up half of what Jackie says.

I think you did a lovely job with it- it looks very "New England" which is where the Hurdle Hill Farm is (Massachusetts). And don't forget, you did yours on your own; I needed a photo-processing program to make my watercolor!

You are such negative lot, there's too much putting yourselves down going on. This is fabulous Jackie

Super pic Jackie. Kudos to you for taking the initiative and doing your own thing sans any tutorial. @30pics4jackiesdiamond

You tell them, Kathy @kjarn
@30pics4jackiesdiamond Jackie, did you have a good time doing this?
May 3rd, 2022  
I’m glad I could see it. Well done

@monikozi oh it was a lovely evening, had the radio on quietly, the cat chasing paintbrush for a while, just lost in copying then painting but seeing errors and realising they looked ok if not compared to closely to original.

Ann did say others could paint it, bet you would do a brilliant job if that portico

@maggiej thank you Maggie
@salza I must be learning stuff from the tutorials I do follow after all
@kjarn ok I consider myself told off, thanks for making me smile!!!
@olivetreeann it's a style of painting I like to look at, just got to practise to get it more relaxed
@randystreat sorry- but I'm broadening your vocab!! (Challenge you to use muller in a conversation this week!!)

@30pics4jackiesdiamond In that case, why bother with 'errors' ?
I simply admire the version. If you want an exact copy, use your camera... Don't spoil the beautiful evening analysing the 'errors'.

This is so soft and lovely, well done
May 3rd, 2022  
Beautifully done, great atmospheric painting!
