A View from the Top

Holiday cactus in bloom, viewed from the top so all the flowers are somewhat visible.
Off to paint again...G'day!

Waiting for Spring

Here's one of many I started to work on yesterday..."Spring in a Jug" only 2.5 x 3.5 inches inks and watercolors.
Happy Day! See you tomorrow...

Paint each day...

I finished this yesterday, although it appeared much differently in my head. The Metallic gold background neither photos or scans true to color or luster. I am off to paint again...
Have a Great Day!

Happy New Year!

It's the Resolution Season...best laid plans and all that. I am hoping to paint on a daily basis. Not necessarily complete one painting a day, just paint daily. If I complete one or more little bits in a day, I will be truly blessed. If I learn something new each day, it will be a wonderful year!
I only hope I can remember half of what I learn.

Things are so much better now...

Don't you think?

Holly Jolly Christmas

Counting down to Christmas? I am...just hoping I'll get it all done in time.
No wicked weather to cope with at the moment, just cooking, baking, and wrapping to fill my days.
Wishing you a Wonderful Christmas Season, enjoy family and friends and all the festivities!

A Small Town Christmas

It's almost here and I'm still not ready! I love the small town Christmas feeling. All the homes and businesses decorate for the Holidays and there's something beautiful to look at on each street.

Wishing you all the Happiest Christmas and all the best in the New Year!

It may be a little hectic but it's my favorite time of year.

Thanks for checking in, see you later!

A Time Gone By

Why is it that the Christmas Season each year causes me to reminisce about all the Christmas celebrations past? Certainly childhood ones were full of excitement and wonder, not to mention a ton of snow!
Each Christmas has it's special moments to remember. Many of those memories had little to do with gifts given or received but were more about family and friends that are no longer available to create new memories. Just hanging an ornament on the tree or placing a pinecone wreath or needlepoint picture brings me back to a time gone by.
I hope you will enjoy this season and every moment of the preparation as well!
See you soon!
