Simple pleasures -- and stay safe


Roses make me happy

A short walk today in the beautiful light felt good.
Sitting on the back porch in the gorgeous day
felt good.

I worked on this drawing from a few years ago, and
started using watercolour and also acrylic ink.  It's
drawing paper, not watercolour paper, so it was not
perfect.  But hey!  It felt good to paint a little.

I may do more on it tomorrow.  I loved the big expansive
roses, but I'm working from my brain, so.  Models
are good, even for still life.

Thank you for being out there and doing art, and
inspiring all of us who are pretty much house
bound.

Have a loving your life day.
