Garden Bliss

I used wax pastel watercolors on this piece. This is my first time using them. Fun!

My New Art

Mardi Gras

Mia is 2 1/2 years old now and takes every opportunity to dress up. She is a clothes horse for sure! I don't remember them starting so young when my kids were small.  Here she is dressed up for Mardi Gras. The more the glitz, the happier she is! Wonder where she gets that from?

Back In Time

Today a friend called and offered me some vintage pictures to copy. Oh, joy! People know me so well, it's the perfect gift. Just the thought that someone would share part of their world with me is astounding. I thank you Susie and Marie for your kindness!

MENDOCINO AGAIN AND AGAIN

  
I never did post about this year's trip to Mendocino. I try to go at least once a year or more if I can. I love that area. I have been to about 38-39 states in the U.S. and I can't think of anywhere else if I had to move from where I am now, I'd rather live. Here are a few pics of my trip there this last time. Enjoy!
