Good morning! Hope you all are having a good week. Thinking of those of you effected by Hurricane Isaac and hoping you and yours are safe. Here in Oklahoma, we expecting a bit of rain tomorrow from the storm as it whirls inland, although it looks like Arkansas will get the bulk of the rain. I know they’ve had a parched summer as well, so they will appreciate it. I’m looking forward to a rainy day for painting tomorrow. I’ll have to run out for some supplies today and get ready to settle in.
Speaking of painting—the clock is running out on time to make things for the September update, but I’m happy to report I am still getting a few things completed! Like this fun painting– The Enchanted Pumpkin Patch! This piece is a little more on the whimsical side of things I’ve been painting lately, but I had fun dreaming it up. Imagine, an autumn field in the moonlight filled with silly enchanted pumpkins!
The closer we get to autumn the happier I get. I’m liking the new routine with school now in session— I drop of Audrey and the dogs and I go for a little walk and then its time for errands, chores, or painting. I prefer painting, of course!
Often times when I’m here in my little room painting, the dogs will join me and usually they end up passed out asleep. I snapped this photo of them the other night, I looked up and they were sleeping back-to-back, in identical positions! I thought it was so funny! I think Henry is finally condescending to have Franklin as a buddy.
Well, I hope you like this latest painting! It will be part of the group of new offerings listed on Saturday. I can’t wait for you to see them all! I hope all of you find something that you love 🙂 there will be several autumn pieces, and Christmas pieces as well. And more notecards! And a couple of new print designs! Oh my!~
Til next time,
