Hi there,
Today, I am writing this post on my iPad. I had doubts about it ever happening. But Blogger, with its new interface, has finally plunged into the 21st century.
Fall has arrived and everywhere you look you can catch a glimpse of gorgeous colours with hints of more to come. It’s such a beautiful time a year. Certain garden flowers that have been bleached out by the hot summer sun, are also enjoying a vivid revival.
I never long for fall, and often lament the passing of summer, but at this point in my life, I enjoy fall almost as much as I do spring.
“Autumn, the year’s last
loveliest smile.”

Awhile ago, someone ask me what I keep in my desk drawers. I admire curiosity. As far as I’m concerned it makes the world go round. Anyway, maybe one day I will shoot a video tour of my little corner studio, although I am not sure I could make it interesting. In the mean time, here's a sneak peek. In drawer number two: tubes of watercolour paint. The gorgeous bright pink: Opera Rose. Not a lightfast paint but oh so lovely.
On a walk, I noticed this feather. It looked like it was floating.
I added a few more watercolour leaves to this painting. As you can see, there are real leaves here too.
The art cards I ordered arrived, so I printed some greeting cards made from a larger Calla Lily painting that sold awhile ago. I really like the matte finish on these cards.
When I cut these watercolour gift tags out of watercolour paper and add splashes of paint, I am in relaxation mode. Although messy, adding texture with salt, alcohol, and cling wrap adds to the fun.
