I’ll tell you a secret. I don’t really like yellow. But there is something about yellow roses that I’m willing to make an exception about. They’re just so buttery and lovely. I made this yellow tattered fabric rose corsage the other day. It was sort of my template on the whole idea. I really love it. I also added a touch of green burlap leaves to the piece. Because leaves are just as an important part of the rose, don’t you think? Can’t forget the greenery!
Henry was a most a patient model as well. He always looks just a little put out when I photograph him. He also likes to lick at his face, which is odd, because he’s not even a licky dog. It must be a strange “I’m getting my photo taken” tick like some people have 🙂 I also took a photo of Henry lounging on the couch, his domain.
Believe it or not I’m working on Christmas art at the moment. I am going to be so ahead of the game. What do you think of the idea of me offering pre-orders for Christmas postcards? That way you can get your cards all picked out, get exactly how many you’ll need, and I’ll have a much better count of how many to order. I’ve done a few autumn shows now where someone will swoop in and take 20 of a single image (which I don’t mind, don’t get me wrong!) but it leaves me with a low count on some cards. This way, there will be enough to go ’round for everyone! What do you think? A good plan?
Well, it was 116* outside yesterday, and no I’m not being funny 😉 I imagine if I saw snow now, I’d positively sizzle. Stay cool and safe!~
