🎨For our 🎨 Art Date 🎨, today's optional prompt is November Rain. Tweety Bird is looking a little worried about the downpour outside his window! I admit I did this one in a hurry - not my best drawing! I painted the dark rainy background with acrylics.
I drew Tweety Bird in my sketchbook then added color digitally. In the bottom photo, you can see the technique I used to make the "rainy" background. I painted my canvas with black acrylic paint, then used a toothbrush to splatter white paint across the canvas. I then took a fan brush and swept up to give it the look of rain falling.
This was my initial contribution but then, I figured I should give it a little more effort. 😉
If you're a fan, you know this song and likely the video. It's really good!

Oh, how neat that you made goat cheese! It looks terrific. And I like your Tweety Bird too, pretty neat how you made the rain.
ReplyDeleteThank you Belinda! ♥ The goat cheese turned out very well!
DeleteI love your Tweety - and I also love when it rains! Soon I´ll have cheese with truffles, but it´s from a cow... Thank you for this subject - it reminded me of a handsome guy I once knew.
ReplyDeleteOh a handsome guy...interesting Iris! ♥♥♥
DeleteHi Rain, lovely to see you back drawing and making cheeses
ReplyDeleteHi Linda! ♥ Thank you!
DeleteHello Rain,
ReplyDeleteTweety Bird is a favorite, cute drawings. I love the song November Rain! Your cheese sounds yummy.
Take care, have a great day!
Thanks Eileen! I love that song too, and the video is great!
DeleteI'm so glad you're making cheese again! Love your original contribution to the theme :). I didn't realize "November Rain" was a song too. Maybe I need to get out more.
ReplyDeleteThanks Leigh! ☺ I would say no, you don't need to get out more...I know you're like me and we need to stay at home more!!! ☺
DeleteHello and happy Thursday Rain! Love all your wonderful skills. Cheese making and drawing for kids. So amazing! Lovely artwork. You inspire me. Have a wonderful Thursday and a lovely weekend! Hugs!
ReplyDeleteThank you Maria! You're very sweet! ♥
DeleteCute Tweety and yummy goat cheese! -Christine cmlk79.blogspot.com
ReplyDeleteThanks Christine! ♥
DeleteI have eaten goat cheese but i prefer dairy
ReplyDeleteHappy Thursday, Rain
Much♡love
Thanks Gillena! I like both as long as the goat cheese isn't too "gamey"!
DeleteWe're getting November Rain here this morning -- mixed with snow. And so it begins . . . .
ReplyDeleteOMG...Debra, don't say the "S" word yet!!!!
DeleteLove your expressive tweety.
ReplyDeleteThe goat’s cheese looks delicious.
Thanks for hosting, Rain.
Thanks so much Dixie!♥
DeleteI love your technique for the rain but what I'm really adoring here is the goat cheese! WOW!
ReplyDeleteThanks Jeanie! I haven't made that cheese in ages and I absolutely love it. It's a regular now, so easy to make too.
DeleteYou did a fantastic job with Tweety! I don't like downpours. I wondered if it was Guns N' Roses that inspired this theme prompt. :) Your charcoal rendition is nice, too. I don't have time to watch your tutorial but will get back to it later. It looks like something fun to try. Thanks for hosting the creativity, Rain!
ReplyDeleteTo be honest Cathy, I don't know what inspired the prompt. I write the year ahead prompts each November, which reminds me....I need to get them ready for 2026!!!
Delete...Rain, soon it will be snowing here. Take care and be warm, well and dry. Have a Nifty November.
ReplyDeleteThanks Tom! (ps. don't mention the "s" word yet please!!!) ☺
DeleteCheese making does look amazing, Rain, but it’s not a project for me. Always enjoy your video presentations. No rain in NH except for the coming weekend😕
ReplyDeleteThanks Dorothy, the cheesemaking is fun, but time consuming...but of course very rewarding! ☺
DeleteTweety is always welcome 😄 Thank you for sharing and for hosting ❤️
ReplyDeleteHa ha, thanks Heidrun! ♥
DeleteHey Rain. Great to get bak in touch with you. Yes, you're right. I've always played with photos only now, I'm learning strobe and speedlight which is been going on for about 6 months and I LOOOOOVE it. So fun. So fun. See you in your next post. PS: My email has been dead for about a year. PPS: Your cheese looks gooooooooood.
ReplyDeleteHey Ivy! ♥ I love how you're getting so knowledgeable with your photography skills. Love it!
DeleteI love Tweety and I'm so glad to see you are still making cheese - yummy!
ReplyDeleteThanks Martha! ♥ I took a few years off from the cheesemaking, but it's in full force now! ☺
DeleteLOL we've had some November rain today!
ReplyDeleteI like your Tweety.
All the best Jan
Thanks Jan! We are having LOTS of November rain right now...in hopes it won't turn into....you know what...eeek, not ready for winter yet!
DeleteYour selfie made me smile!
ReplyDeleteThanks Arnoldo! ☺☺☺
DeleteI always thought you should be an illustrator for children's books. Tweety is excellent. So happy you are back to making cheese. Have a great weekend.
ReplyDeleteThanks Sis! ♥ I'm very much enjoying the cheesemaking, but I need to start branching out more and trying new ones...take the plunge!
DeleteI love how you combine art and food in such a personal, playful way. Tweety in the rain is charming, and your technique for the rainy background really brings it to life. And homemade goat cheese. What a treat. It’s inspiring to see creativity flow both on canvas and in the kitchen.

DeleteYes, Rain! You're making cheese again! Thanks for the Gun & Roses! Have a great week!
ReplyDeleteYes Louise!!! ♥ Cheese!!!! I was away far too long from cheesemaking, there will be some new attempts in the new year, cheeses I haven't tried before! Can't wait!!!
DeleteRain - I love goat cheese. My husband has made it a couple times using the goat milk from one of our neighbors! Thanks for visiting my blog, and your kind comments! I hope to link up to Art Date soon!
ReplyDeleteThanks Angie! Oh lucky to have fresh goats milk!
