Eyeglass case

I have been painting on glass cases and have many more to paint.  These make wonderful gifts as everyone needs a glass case for reading or sun glasses,  snacks, sewing kit, etc.  The case is a great way to organize your purse.  I plan to get out my bird magazines and draw more birds.  I haven't had time to sketch in my journal, but that is going to change.  When I get the courage, I will show my journal, maybe.   Have a wonderful day.

HOME AT LAST

I have been staying with my granddaughters for a few day while their parents and friends are in Mexico.  They arrived home today, I got home around 4:00 pm and am tired and need to rest a few days. 
I want to get in my studio and finish up the kits for the paint-in.  I plan to start that tomorrow.

card for the troops

 Ozark Hills Painting Chapter has been working on cards to send to our troops, which is being done by others in the SDP.  This little bird is my contribution to the cause.  I have been working on it for several days and need to do some changes, but I will have it ready by 11 September.   I decided to post this today as I am leaving to stay with my beautiful red haired granddaughters.  It will be like a vacation for me.  Shelby works all day and Shannon goes to school, I will have time to plan some things.   I  plan to work in my sketch journal, as I am a little behind.  I promise I will return Mon. or Tues. and post about my adventures.  Sorry, the picture is blurred.

School starting too early

Today is the first day of school for Jack, my oh my, the summer break was so short! He is in Junior High this year, 7th grade.
Today is a beautiful Thursday, but very hot today. I continue working on my art and filling each day with ideas that I must try. More and more ideas...When I work in the studio time passes so quickly and before I realize Pat calls on the telephone and asks, "Whats for dinner? or When or what do we eat?"
I have started an art journal and will try to add pictures.
