It takes a lot of energy to be creative some days, when life
is throwing other things at you.
I have not completed any of the paintings I'd hoped to this week, however I did get some much needed sorting and rearranging done. So that's something. :)
I do have these paintings in the works... an idea based on the Flower Crazy class by Carla Sonheim. (Yes, I totally love what I learned in that class!) They are still wet in this photo. More layers to come.
In other news... my Vintage and Ephemera shop has a sale on select ephemera packs. Here are a couple to tempt you. (Note that I get these packs only from books that are torn, missing covers or falling apart.)

It looks like you're making very pretty clouds. Can't wait to see the next step.
Lots of inspiration here! I totally understand how life can set up distractions that get in the way of creativity, yet it seems you are doing just fine - beautiful work.
I'm looking forward to what comes next on your piece. You are always doing something new and that is a good thing. :) Happy PPF!

When I looked at your gesso in the top of the picture, I realized that is exactly what I needed to do to make the background of my wildflower picture I am starting today. Thanks!
Your canvas is looking so pretty so far. Soft and delicate. I'm looking forward to seeing what come of it!
You are off to a good start. Life does get in the way of art sometimes

Those newly started paintings look very promising - I like them! I do like Carla Sonheim as well, her art is quite unique! Wonderful stuff.
Thank you for your kind words about my Dad's passing away - it means a lot.
Wonderful, soft color background!
What lovely soft colors! Happy PPF!
Your background is exquisite!
Curious to see where it goes from here.
Life does give you plenty to but in the process always gives light to ideas.
