SPRING IN ALTADENA

It's raining in the Moselle again. Blustery rains. Gray skies have been there for quite some time now. When the sun does peek through, folks there in France try and grab up as many rays as humanly possible. Lack of sunshine can be brutal on a human being.

Frankly, I'm glad to be in California right now.

BUTTERFLIES FLUTTER BY

The butterflies are beginning to appear everywhere in my work room. la-la-la!


This project has been freeing, even with my self-imposed structure, if that makes any sense. The challenge with color, composition and collage components; phew boy, quite something, but oh, so fun!

Opening a magazine or finding scraps of paper on the ground gets me to thinking, hmm, what a great monarch wing that would make! Purple and orange with a bit of yellow, what a fun painted lady that could be!

OPEN SKETCH - LET'S BEGIN




Today was a let-go day.

Let-go days are good. You never know what can come of a let-go day. Something. Nothing. An idea. Or not. Who cares?

Will it be a sketch, a poem, a song, a cake?

...you give it a go...let-go, let's see wassup.
