"Ta Da" Series

..been feeling whimsical this last week...a little

more than usual...ergo...i guess this should be

called a series, in that i did 4 in a row...never did that before...

and loving all those feelings...thinking stuff like: hmmm....

what should the next little cutie be doin' or thinkin'...

how powerful this is to do whatever YOU want...

all the choices are yours...hmmm...the next series maybe....?

and a heartfelt thank you to misty and miz katie whom have

certainly influenced some of my choices and directions!! xoxox

HAPPY happy Friday ALL OF You...

Painted Card

This will have something humorous written on the front...

i painted a card for my husband's aunt who just lost

her husband after 60 years!

she just found out i painted and wanted to know

what kinds of things...this will be an example...

she can hold on to it or toss it...it will be hers...

since the last few classes i've taken, i started

posting everywhere, fb, flicker, your group,

my group, everybody's group...yikes...

i am going to just post here...everyone has choices, eh?

there is an extremely supportive group on this

latest class with misty, but i am driving myself

insane...i who like things as simplistic as

possible in my life...sooo..oh so what some may

say...i must remember that this is also a journal for myself...

not omitting, EVER those that support me.

back to this piece...charcoal sketch on charcoal paper,

acrylic paint, collage paper for her dress...

and had to glue her down to a good piece of

watercolor paper when i got the paint out!....

whew...that was a mouthful!

and by the way...thank you from the bottom of

my heart, to you supporters and looky lou's...

i am going to try and come up with a gift that

everyone might like!!!??? soon!
