Nature is the ultimate inspiration generator, and now in early wet spring is the most stimulating... I can smell new growth! New mushrooms about to appear, tiny plants and flowers - the first of spring alluding to what may come. We've started seeds - I hope the squash turn out terrific - they were tasty and I'm looking forward to them again! Mostly vegetables but a few flowers and I'm planning on more native plants to encourage bugs and butterflies, there are many native plants in the forest to learn about. I'm on creative overload.. & love it when it happens, I'm painting one thing -looking at a sketch of my next painting and planning the pinecones in my mind, no room or excuse for boredom. What are you creating today!?
I made another 'shelf -remember my Mary rosary holder? I had a second so decided to make the King himself- a matching Jesus shelf (below), so far I'm pleased with how He is turning out.. He is currently 'purple Jesus - just like Mary started all blue.. I might leave him purple as I like it! It is for my own personal pleasure so why not. I've also started to crochet again - just to warm up my hands in the morning, therapy. Noting special, a blanket for Poppy, she's gonna love it - missed stitches and all. Here is a video I enjoyed - a lesson in gouache (it says water colour but it's gouache) an easy lovely landscape to [paint: Watercolor Tutorial with Yoichi Nishikawa.
I hope you enjoy this day the Lord has made & find the time to create!
