Happy November!

November starts today!
We've already had the first snowfall here in Southern Ontario, but it's all melted and disappeared now.  Thank goodness! But it will be back sooner than we think.
I needed new snow tires this year, the old ones didn't have much life in them after 8 winters, so my very helpful YoungerSon organised them and now I have spiffy new wheels ready for the winter. No pics, you'll just have to imagine how nice they are.
And I've been painting. I'll post some of the pictures from time to time. Here's the first.

  1. I vaguely remember snow tires from my youth in Minnesota. I do remember they were a pain to get on and off, though! But so necessary at times. Shammy, you are a true artiste. I absolutely love this painting. It's creative, with great colors and super shadows. Hopefully, I'll still be alive when you become world famous and I can tell people, "I knew that woman way back when!"

  6. I like the painting, and I don't like snow tires. I want to wait until at least mid month.

  7. We don't need snow tyres over here, the country grinds to a halt with just a sprinkling of snow!!!!!

  9. Well, my dear, I have no idea if whatever needs a truss or a stress test or anything else. Where dost thou come into such esoteric knowledge? I just thought they were fun photos! :)

  10. It does look strange. I think it's to accommodate a window.

  11. Most attractive painting! Haven’t had little ones in neighborhood going door-to-door for years, so am not troubled with leftovers. Mostly families have private parties their children go to. Seemed to have started years ago when occasional reports around the country of contaminated treats being foisted off on children though no such problem in our town. My Superhero grandson in mid U.S. (I live on West Coast) sent me video as he went out to collect his loot.

    I don’t miss snow tires from when I lived in snow country. Never had to use chains since not a mountainous area.
