Oh No!
I've become a boring blogger!!!! Life just has a way of sneaking up on ya. I haven't painted since May. My art room is very neat and organized. Surely this is just a passing dry spell. Perhaps with cooler weather coming in a few months, and DD going back to school soon, I'll get back into the groove ( do people still use that phrase?).

Stained Glass Irises

For my birthday, my son sent me the Possum Palette from Cheap Joes. What a cool idea for not wasting paint! Sometimes, I think my hobby is collecting watercolor paraphernalia, not actually painting.
Be Blessed, Y'all!

Faces To Paint
These are the faces this dog lover wants to paint! Could it be any sweeter? Oh I know all you dog lovers out there think your baby is the cutiest! Actually, as a totally certified dog lover, I do fall in love with every dog I see. Unfortunately, my hubby will only allow me to have 4 dogs. Ain't that sad??? Now, if only I could find a great how to book on painting dogs in watercolor.

Trying To Get Back To Normal
The past week has been a horror to the people of our community, state and country. Our local University, Virginia Tech, was the site of a massacre that our nation has never before seen, and I pray never sees again. My daughter has many friends that attend Tech. I'm so grateful that they're alright.
My cousin works in the trauma unit and was there when the first victim arrived. One of my own doctors was on call and treated a victim with a fatal gunshot wound to the head. I don't know how our health care professionals can deal with the tragedies they see on a daily basis. They deserve our praise.
The students returned to classes today, but things won't be "normal" for a long, long time.
My prayers go out to all the families who suffer loss, to the surviving victims, and to all students and staff. May God's healing power and love cover all.
Please continue to pray for our nation's youth.

More Than I Can Chew

This is the Macro Floral Demo from WetCanvas. I'm kind of at a stand still. My assumption was that it was wet in wet, but it's wet on dry, a technique I haven't attempted yet. So, I'm at square one until I can familiarize myself with this method. Argh! This is on an Arches block, and I can't use it until I've finished this painting (cuz I like the way the block keeps it nice and flat while painting). So I guess that leaves me with doing small paintings on my smaller blocks.
Hmmm.......must get some more blocks.......must get some more blocks
