Appaloosa Plus

 Wrapping up the horses for the moment
it's been fun trying to fit these beauties on pieces of paper
some small
some tiny!

it's raining...

 so let's have 
FLOWERS!
 Splashy fun ones!


Spring rains remind me of the fun in making splashy paintings.
 I like big ones but little ones can be fun too. 
And a little challenging.

temptation...

 I made some of my glue black

 and did a little bit of free hand drawing with it

 just to see how it would look

Oh it was fun, too
waiting for the glue to dry so I could add some watercolors

glue or gel medium? more fun with resist...

 I like the shine of the dried glue 

better than the flat and not so white look of gel medium

making Spring

The nice thing about painting
when you grow impatient for a little Spring
you can make your own







 such a sunny yellow

Perhaps Ted has taken a head start -

SPRING?







Apparently, I have voles.
I found these little holes in the ground 
and wondered what they were.
I noticed there were no greens 
where my tulip bulbs were planted.

The only bulbs that have survived
are in an elevated bed 
surrounded by brick.

Day 2


I've decided to give it a shot!
to paint every day for this month.

I may not finish a painting each day but if I keep them small...

Crash!


I haven't gone anywhere - honest! I've just been out of touch due to "crash" conditions. One good thing about the computer being down, I found time to do a few other things, HA!
I worked on a crochet project, read an art book from cover to cover and threw some paint around, too.

Welcome to Venice



It was a warm Spring day when I exited the train station in Venice and realized how different, exciting and fun this trip would be! Sadly, most of my slides from this trip are missing.
I stumbled across a tube of Venetian red...so here we are!

Lily of the Valley



I had to try some new paper...I like white flowers and they were an excellent excuse to use the new stuff. This little art card kept me busy for quite awhile. It's all those little bells!
