These next two I am calling works in progress. Not happy with them at the moment, but maybe when I look again they won’t seem so bad. Still, I will tweak them a bit.

The prompt for today’s watercolor is primary colors. These were all painted yesterday afternoon and evening. I am caught up! Again! Today I will be painting #92 along with the other project participants who are painting. I have to admit, I lost my mojo a couple of days ago. Snoopy was in my head. “BLEAH!” But he is gone now. Back in the groove. Even if some of these pieces are not very groovy.

Everything came in pairs today. Two bunnies, two crows. Two tiny birds on the fence. Hmmm, maybe it’s going to rain.

There are always flowers for those who want to see them. ~ Henri Matisse

We need to find God, and he cannot be found in noise and restlessness. God is the friend of silence. See how nature – trees, flowers, grass- grows in silence; see the stars, the moon and the sun, how they move in silence… We need silence to be able to touch souls. ~ Mother Teresa

Today is the first day… of the rest of the month!

It is time for Leslie Saeta’s January 30 Paintings In 30 Days Challenge. Here is my Day One, a GIF for you. Three slides only. I added flecks of color, and then a few long strokes of pastel. Subtle. No title yet.

HAPPY SUPERCALIFRAGILISTIC 2015 to you! May all your days be blessed!
