Sitting on a Branch

 
They sat there at dusk
Listening to the leaves rustle
Soft forest whispers


Hello this is a little birdie piece in honor of all the birds I love to watch and listen to. Now in Spring we have so many swallows screeching out, especially if the days have been sunny and warm. I'll have to think about doing a special swallow piece, as the days get warmer they will start to really celebrate summer, dipping and soaring high, so wonderful to see them having such fun!

This was done with felt tips and water color paints and a touch of photo editing color boost to liven the red.

Wishing you all well, take the time to listen and enjoy special moments!

Spring Collection

 
Days filled with blue light
Summer is on its way fast
Flowers grow each day


These are a little collection of cards I had fun making with Inchies. I have had much inspiration from Sheila's lovely work over at Orange Esmerlada. Making art on such a small scale was new and different. I had a page of doodles that I decided to cut out pieces of and elaborate on them in some detail, a very relaxing and soothing process.

I wish you all a bright and blue skied week-end!

Spring Reverie

 
Spring has come again,
Feel the warm breezes flowing
sun and light stretching.

May is upon us, the light and sun grow stronger by the day. This month is full of beauty, Spring really sets in and we start to feel the beginnings of summer slowly swinging in. I wish you all a great month of May, enjoy each new and special day!

Stillness

 
Peaceful and quiet
Nature slowly awakened
She loved her moments

This is a sketch I photo edited, I love the warm colors and the peace this one brings me. I wish you all a peaceful week filled with simple and happy moments!

Bloom from Within

 
Inside is the truth
Find that stillness deep inside
And bloom from within

Hello to all, I have missed creating and sharing with you all. Last week-end was spent with all the family up in Edinburgh, we went to visit my gran. She is a lovely peaceful soul, so very content with her life.
Tis the season where all is in bloom, trees are sprouting their fresh luminous leaves, here in the South of France it's so luminous with these fresh green leaves, so relaxing to be immersed in this green haven.

Nature is blooming and so are we, so unfold, stretch, smile and bloom deep from within!

Caring

 
Cold breezes blowing
Feeling close and warm with you
Your head against me


This is a mixed media piece I took my time over. It started with a little paint and then collage. I then took my paint brush and made several swirls until these two popped out at me. I love when paint is still wet, you can easily wipe away what you don't want and pictures emerge. I cared for them, as they showed me their love for one another.

Seasons

 
Go slow and enjoy
Each month offers its own gift
Each one is special

Hello to all, I want to thank you all for your faithful visits and kind comments, it's such a pleasure to share with you.
April is upon us, it's cold and rainy, even in the South of France, still through the grey I try to see the color, each day has a special tone of its own.
Wishing you all a happy week-end full of your own vibrant color!
