May Painting Challenge - "Something Hanging"

Our May challenge has been completed for the theme of "something hanging."  As usual, we did not know what the others were painting until the end of the month. These challenges have been very interesting, but we are halting them for the summer months. Between summer vacation, gardening, and spending time with family and friends, the summer will slip by so quickly. And last, but not least, we have to concentrate on finishing our paintings for our fall show on October 1st. We do expect to start again after the show. 

Thanks to those who have participated thus far and have either shared them with us, or kept them private.  Making art is a wonderful activity, and we hope you get to make some over the summer, whether it's a sand castle at the beach, a wonderful salad, or maybe even a fairy house for your garden.
