These are some of my favorite colors - as you can probably tell, I find that lovely aqua irresistible these days. I think this painting would look great in just about any room.

How about a painting for the patio?

| Patio painting - Acrylic on Stretched Canvas |
Off to the art supply I went and purchased a large canvas - can't remember but I think it's about 24 x 30". Anyway, the real treat of the trip was the purchase of a couple of Liquitex paddle brushes - have you tried them? They're super for covering large areas with crisp edges, lots of control and doing so in a short amount of time. Oh and I also bought a funky looking Liquitex splatter brush. I have yet to try that one, but I'm anxious to do so.
Ruby at 2
Here's a cute snapshot of Ruby this week that a friend took & edited using Instagram. Hasn't she grown?! Still the apple of my eye.
Mysteries of the Sea
Okay, so I have been painting - just not always in my studio. Here's a fun, unexpected project I got to help with last week. My niece participated in her school's "Mystery Museum" project. Her theme? Mysteries of the Sea. She worked very hard researching unusual sea creatures as well as mysterious events like the disappearance of the crew of the Marie Celeste (hmm...I wonder why she picked that one?) She memorized an interesting speech and each time a visitor tapped her on the shoulder, they were treated to the lively discussion. Of course, we wanted to make her board really stand out, so we painted Bella in her underwater gear deep below the sea pointing out some of her fascinating facts. Bella, her mom and I had a great time getting creative and messy together!

Back in the studio finally after much time away - you know Spring calls for lots of home projects, gardening, etc. I mean really, who wants to be inside when outdoors is calling? After all, I gotta have time to plant things to paint, right?
