Hello There:
I wasn't planning on blogging this evening,
but....
it's so hot outside and I'm indoors anyway,
may as well pop in and say a little "Hello."
I worked a bit in the garden this morning:
But, it was so hot, I decided to have my coffee at the breakfast nook
and view the garden through the window ~
Since the last time I visited, I finished a new piece.
"Always There to Hold You Up."
I have always been fascinated with twins and have wanted to do a piece dedicated to that fascination for a long time.
The piece has already sold, but I wanted to share it with you anyway.
I am in the middle of projects, and found myself with empty time on my hands.
I don't like empty time because it allows me to think too much....
Which is fine under better circumstances, but with my husband STILL unemployed, too much thinking is not good for me.
So.....with no current project on the table, I decided to do something that I never, ever do.
Draw
Flowers!!
I love flowers.
I grow flowers.
I nurture flowers.
But....I don't draw them.
It is a thousand miles out of my comfort zone....drawing flowers.
I decided to just doodle.
Cartoonish flowers ~
Nothing fancy or realistic.
Eventually, this will be a watercolor.
Well, unless I get frustrated and tear it up...
which I've been known to do on many occasions in my arty life.
I think it's good to work outside of our comfort zones sometimes.
While I'm taking a break from my current illustration projects ~
I've decided to have a little sale in my Zibbet Shop.
May 16 through May 18, all originals in my Zibbet shop are 30% off.
No need for a coupon code as all prices are marked.
I'd love to move some of my original inventory,
as I have several new pieces that will be introduced over the next few months.
So, this weekend will still be unseasonably warm.
The best time to stay in the studio,
paint outside of my comfort zone,
and have a little weekend sale.
Until Next Time:

OH!!! I love the new piece so much, and your garden, I just adore it.
I have been doodling flowers too, I stink (<- thanks auto correct, I meant think, not stink ha!) you and I think in the same wave. We love gardens and picket fences and foxes and doodling flowers.
Oh, and we like each other too.
hahaha ;)

Well, I couldn't think of anyone else I'd rather have so much in common with!
