I remembered my friend Elizabeth did some beautiful work with hets last year. Shes going to try to find them so dhe can bring to show and tell. I will also take my friend Rachels watercolor feather to show. These should inspire us. Plus friend Linda will bring some of Daisy's dropped feathers. Thanks Daisy!

Feather 2
That was such fun thought I would do it again. Before it dried the colors were vivid. Now it is so subtle... I like it this way too.
Feather1
My friend Rachel sent me a watercolor painting of a feather. She had the feather to look at. Its really awesome. I had to try my hand at painting an imaginary feather. Here it is.
Jackies birds done
Awhile back i posted a few stitches on fabric in a frame. It was the beginning stitches of this piece. The stitches are so tiny i cant see them. But i love the pieces Jackie does. I ourchased this one. The monarchs were a gift from a friend. I appreciate this fine work.
Spring at Micke Grove Tea Garden
My friend Jean and I took a little ride and a nice walk Saturday. After the tea garden we walked along the lake and found ourselves in the path of Disc Golfers playing the course. Duh. We didnt know it was a course - and worse yet - we didnt have a clue there was such a sport. Looked like fun.

Blueberries
In this nature sketchbook I see that I seldom use blues and purples. I sought out blueberries to fill this void. This sketch book has only 4 pages left to do. I need to pick up snother one as I really enjoy working on the Strathmore Toned Tan paper for organic subjects.
