WOYWW

Well, here it is Wednesday already and I'm moving slowly.
My desk is the place for everything I'm THINKING about doing, and some things I am actually working on. It always seems like a jumble, but it makes perfect sense to me.
The poppy pendants are drying after I put pouring medium on them; not sure that is going to work; might dry cloudy.The right side of my desk holds some ideas for rings. Didn't have a lot of luck with that project. Finally, the Soul Collage book which I am reading, and anxious to get started making Soul Collage cards. I feel like I have to read the whole book first to get the concept. Please check here at Julie's blog, and see if everyone's desk is as messy as mine.

Post Card Swap

I joined in on a Post Card Swap here. I mailed out these three, and should get three in return.

 I had 2 to mail to England, so I put them in envelopes. I guess I didn't want to know what might happen on the way to England without an envelope. A fun challenge, and not too involved with a bunch of rules.
Louise Gale seems very laid back, and it is always a joy to read her blog. Take a look. Many times she will have a guest posting, usually about how the heart makes a difference.

Spring is here

The daffodils were blooming and the doves were cooing. I had never seen a dove house; it was huge and the doves were everywhere.
I love this fountain idea. A very large iron pot with the water spouting up through the middle.

These are a few of the abstract pieces I have been working on since last week. I poured acrylic, and it was quite a mess, but fun. Forgot to take pictures. I practiced on a piece of  card board covered with Gesso (the blue one), then went on to canvas. I may not be finished, and that is the fun of abstract. Stop by Julie's site and see what is going on today. It is show and tell time.

Swingin' !!!

Just another beautiful day in Georgetown, Texas!

The hammock was a Christmas present from  our son and daughter-in-law. You can see our bottle tree in the background, and the bird feeder. That large "shield" below the feeder is to keep the squirrels out of the food. It works most of the time; fun to watch the squirrels do the pole dance, trying to get up the pole. Usually it is so slickly they slide right back down. The weather has been gorgeous for about a week, but is not going to last.

I am in my abstract mood; reading about color and moods.
This book is a good one, although I am taking a class at the Art Center.
It is called Pouring with Acrylics. Sue Nosler Gray is the instructor.
 I will be posting some of my creations soon.
On my desk today is this wonderful book; a flask I am embellishing for a friend.
and the "TRUST" jar that found me in the resale shop. My word for this year!
Go over to Julie's sit

e and see what is going on.

Be My Valentine

Our celebration started yesterday with the anniversary of our engagement, 54 1/2 years ago! I am so lucky to be married to my best friend; I thank the Lord every day. We spent the day making cupcakes and chocolate covered spoons for our wonderful neighbors. Last night we splurged and had a steak on the grill. The weather had warmed up, and it was wonderful.

These were my surprise from the postman! Had to jump right in and taste them; they are yummy! Have a great Valentine's Day and thank you for visiting my blog.
