Greetings To one and All!
Monday once again in the land of art..Here is one from my rural and countryscapes folder I was working on and no....no one panic ...I'm not switching seasons just yet...lol...I created this because I'm really getting sick and tired of sweating my butt off here in Wisconsin and am wishing for anything other than Hazy/Hot/Humid being the topic of daily conversations at the water cooler...Oh wait...did I just say the word water?..
Violation!!!!....lol...you'll get it if you continue reading...
I am beginning to wonder if it knows how to even rain here anymore..33 days and not one drop of liquid sunshine to be found...Nothing but bright blue skies and hot hot hot(Awesome weather if your a cactus btw)..Well finally our local weather stations gave in and are now using the word "drought" in our nightly reports which I could of told them by what used to be grass in my yard to all the dead or barely alive flowers that once used to be vibrantly beautiful are now no more than dead stalks which are being devoured by the only thing that's flourishing here and that's insects...
Here's where you'll understand the violation part I mentioned before...
I even got a flip'n citation the other day for watering my flowers(not grass)as some are doing and told them It was my left over bath water(tried to show them the proof but noooooooooooo!!!)that I was pumping onto my flowers and they said a ban is a ban...Stupid people annoy the hell out of me when you know that recycled water is what your suppose to do in situations such as this and they just can't seem to grasp the fact that I'm a conservative kinda guy..I told them I'll pay the citation as soon as the money tree that "was" growing in my back spring backs to life when and if ever it decides to rain here again....Sheeeeeesh!!
So anyway...We could use the rain and none is in the forecast anytime soon so thought to share for those that I've mentioned to before wanted to stay abreast of the situation that's going on here in the land of dairy air..And speaking of dairy air...PEEEEEEEEEE UUUUUUUUUUUUU!!!!
Without rain to help break it down and with the blazing sun and temps in the 90's and low 100's every day for weeks at a time one only needs to use there imagination here folks!...lol..
So without further ado I created this nice and comforting winter scene to help reduce my stress level and any and all that care to create such winter scenes you can personally dedicate them to me if you like...I'll take the ribbing as I'm tired of summer all ready..lol..(smiles)..

I also have a tremendous need for cold-winter-coat-scarf and boots lined with fur! But we are only at the beginning of July and then for at least another two and a half months I will continue to sweat. I HATE THE HEAT!! For this I appreciate very much your beautiful winter image. And also because I like to create images that remind me of the cold, my first work regarding winter I'll devote to you with VERY pleased,I hope as soon as possible.

Coming out of ten year drought here I know how you feel. The Australian government drew up a water restriction plan for the murray darling basin excluding thousands of farmers from already paid for water allocations The plan was just about to come into effect, when the drought broke and ironically a lot of the regions in question were flooded. Now the dams are back to capacity and the the revised water plan has been put back on the shelf. for the moment... Love the image! Its winter here so feels just right.

A beautiful winter's scene with marvellous lightinng. It is a shame you can't send some of your heat down to us and I will send you some frosty weather but as we haven't had rain either I can't send you any of that. I have been out this morning watering some of my plants and it is the middle of winter, goodness knows what our summer is going to bring. I hope you can get some raindrops soon for your parched garden.

in spain it was the driest month of may since 30 years. i think some vokkers in the world control center of the new world order(WCC-NWO) are influencing the weather they make bad experiments they need to get rid of a few billion people too many are crawling on the planet,too many useless subjects i mean. listen to spring summer winter and fall by aphrodites child here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WiDAJCjzH38

I seldom water my plants but I do use the old dog water often.we can water twice a week here, but soon it will be maybe once a month.W.Texas is in severe drought now and NE Texas is on the way.we actually have had a break in triple digit so far this week your winter scene is very inviting.superb landscape
Glendaw
Totally awesome rural landscape scene. The hazy atmosphere and snow are gorgeous. Excellent farm buildings and the mailbox is a special addition. Will this is another of your outstanding productions. Too bad about your fine,sure hope you get some relieve soon.

Will, this is just beautiful no matter what season it is! I love peaceful, pastoral scenes like this - I have a gazillion of them in my "idea file" (pictures I've scanned from old magazines and such). If I ever figure out what the heck I'm doing in Vue, I'll make a couple winter scenes. Are you sh**ing me???? Those butt-munchers actually cited you for watering your flowers???? And here we're about to celebrat "Independence" Day? What the F###. I thought this was a 'free' country. I guess it is if you're a political 'mouth-farter' as Rene calls them. Anyway, you've created a really refreshing piece here, buddy! Stay cool! (It's 102 here at the moment..)
