Mr. Toast has chosen "PUMPKIN" for are theme this time. My love of baking has influenced some of my painting. Last time I shared my Apple Pie, and today, if you notice my "header" you will see my watercolor of a Pumpkin Pie.
But, on a LIGHTER SIDE, I will share some of my "FUN PUMPKINS" this week. I call the one above "The Pumpkin Inspector".
I have always loved "Scarecrows". This one certainly doesn't scare anybody, not even the crows!!
I call this one "Trio plus One"....Guess who is the "ONE". HaHa.
I don't know if you believe in Ghosts! If you do, then this one sure has some good looking boots and socks and a PUMPKIN full of candy!! (Tee Hee)

Love, love, love your pumpkins or as my boys would say...punkuns...
ReplyDeleteWish I could paint like that.
It is such a fun expressive talent.
This was such a fun theme... I still smiling, and think I might just have to paint a couple more!
DeleteThe ghost one is so very cute! They would all make cute cards for October and Halloween. Best wishes, Tammy
ReplyDeleteGhost is my personal favorite too. I cannot look at him with out loving those boots.
DeleteOh, I love the faces on the trio + one!! They look so fun, each and every one!! blessings ~ tanna
ReplyDeleteThose are crazy faces aren't they? What fun!!!
Deleteoh wanda I love your work so much, this could be from a children's story book, I thought I might ruffle a few feathers with my post but we all are different and I was just giving my opinion, i like your half and half methods and I know you are very conscious of the planet and frugal too!
ReplyDeleteWill turn these into cards for the grandchildren and friends. I love that you share your opinions...that's a healthy thing!!!
DeleteI love them all Wanda, such fun! Beautiful header painting too.
ReplyDeleteThanks so much. I love changing my header with the seasons.
DeleteHey, is that a mouse...or a jalapeno? lol...
ReplyDeleteI hope our friends will click on your blog to see the "jalapeno mouse"...HaHa or is that an inside joke!!!!
Deleteadorable! I love the ghost and of course the mouse with the pumpkin!
ReplyDeleteI had a pumpkin muffin this week....and am getting very excited about fall!
I'm way to serious with my painting most of the time...This was downright FUN!
DeleteThese are darling! What a cheerful bunch of paintings, and the pumpkin pie makes my mouth water.
ReplyDeleteIt's about time I got "serious" about painting "Cheerful and Fun"...Thanks Nonnie, there were sure fun doing.
ReplyDeleteAutumn is my fav season and your sweet and colorful paintings are great. I love the coziness and warmth of the header painting too.
ReplyDeleteWishing you a great weekend.
I guess I accomplished my goal... cozy and warm...that's what I was trying to get. I'm surely in the mood for a piece of pumpkin pie.
DeleteI always admire the 'freedom' you have in your drawings. It's hard for me to loosen up -- but it's coming slowly. Very cute anyway.
ReplyDeleteIn my painting and life, I'm not a "detail" person or a "perfectionist"..thus I'm a loosy goosy painter.
DeleteI like the word freedom better, HaHa.
Wanda, I love your new banner. My you have been busy, I love all your variations, each one is a little gem. I especially love the scarecrow though.
ReplyDeleteHe's was so fun to do... I wasn't sure about the crows..but he looked so sweet, I wanted the crows to like him too.
DeleteI have to admit...I do love those socks. And I'm in too army boots too HaHa.
ReplyDeleteVisiting from Creative Tuesdays - Wow, how busy you've been. These are all so fabulous! Ilove them all, but if I HAD to choose, I loveth the Pumpkin Inspector ;0))
ReplyDeleteThanks! I tried to leave a comment on your post, but I'm not a Yahoo member, and it wouldn't let me post a comment.
DeleteNeedless to say...you always have great illustrations for the theme.
You take the biscuit on this one, dear Wanda! Or, err....pumpkin(s) on this collection. Each one is so darling, I can;t decide which one I like better. Well, you've certainly proved you love pumpkins. I can almost smell the pumpkin pies wafting from your kitchen. You really are the perfect grannie, I must say! Wonderful, Wanda. Very toasty lovely indeed! :)
ReplyDeleteMMm..I thought you'd like my pumpkins. You were in my mind....and cutting loose and having fun was FUN. Wish you were closer...You'd have one of my pumpkin pies..
DeleteThis is beautiful! As a lover of all things Halloween, these all made me smile. The painting of the pumpkin pie is so well rendered and classic, and the cute little cartoon pumpkins/other characters have such great character design. Mr. Mouse was my favorite. Great job :-)
