New Start

I was given a vision for what my next painting would be on Christmas Eve night.  I was able to get started on it on January 12th.  It is titled "A Vision of Eden, The Love that Surpasses Knowledge".  I am really enjoying the process...I always do!

primed and ready to go...
sketch for one figure...
 
sketch for second figure...
 
 
Off to a good start! 
 
 
 

Sometimes it takes a while...

Sometimes it takes me a while to gather in all the loose ends I have hanging around.  Posting has certainly been one of those that has been dangling since November.  I blame it on the new cats.  Our little house has still been creating though...messes, cookies, and all other sorts. 

 
I have a new Thank You design started.  She is on the back burner for now though...
 
 
Alice has taken to baking beautiful things every Saturday afternoon.  These shortbread
cookies were her own recipe!
Enjoyed a morning of quilling flowers...
and had a day in when it was snowing on the outside and warm and sweet on the inside.
 
I finally got around to refinishing these ceramic balloons that had been in my basement for years! They used to be a part of my sister's bedroom when we were little.
