I’m showing two weeks of paintings here. I’ve had technical difficulties with my site. Basically I have used up all of my allotted space on the server. Which means I am unable to upload new images. Not good for an art blog.

So here they are. Slightly out of order I think. Most are 4 x 4’s. I have also done 4 x 6 and the last several days I have been using 5 x 5’s.

Everybody born comes from the Creator
trailing wisps of glory.
We come from the Creator with creativity.
I think that each one of us is born with creativity.

I am taking part in World Watercolor Month. I was tempted not to, there is already so much on my to do list. I know you know exactly what I mean. 😄

But I missed my colors. And brushes. And I am so enjoying my “new” desk. I have two other large projects going, and I am squeezing out a tiny little spot to paint these tiny little pieces. Even still, the work area feels so much more spacious. Ahhhh.

I think a little bit of the Feng Shui, rejuvenate the chi flow has made a difference as well. Isn’t that part of why we do our spring cleaning?

Thanks so much for stopping by.
Wishing you an awesome week! Enjoy!

Peaceful Blue Plaid for Spoonflower

Plaids have proven to be popular on Spoonflower. French blue is a smokey grey-blue. I brightened it up and added contrast with the crisp white windowpane plaid. Our assignment this week is French Country Table Linens. I am again taking the minimalistic route. I know it won’t put me in the top 60, but necessity won out.

Peaceful? Perky? Poised? Pleasant? Polished? 😆

Sunny Sage placed at  #838 out of 1506 with 25 Votes. That is just over 55%. Boggles my mind. That so few votes are anywhere near the halfway mark. 🤔😆 Woo Who!! I am so thankful for your votes and support!

Voting is now open for French Blue Plaid until the 11th. Thanks so much lifting me up! (From the bottom of the list, 😆)

I am thinking about friends, that had a horrible couple of days.
All is well now, but they are in my thoughts, and prayers.
Thinking of you too! And praying all is well in your neck of the woods!
