Mothers day and day out on tuesday





Mothers day Rick and I were invited to a church of his friend. He is a lovely old Polish gentleman who loves to celebrate with his friends. He sponsors a huge Christmas party every year for children of like just everyone he knows. It is the biggest free bash I have ever attended. He got his church to hold a mothers day celebration. I wish I had taken my camera inside the church. The stained glass windows were a celebration of history and I suppose Polish history since it is a polish church. Every panel had a different picture and there must have been 50 panes per wall. There were two walls covered with pictures. Totally awesome. Now I love grave yards. There is something so peaceful and quiet about them. The two statues I didnt get up close. I wanna take another trip there one day

did you see the buds



I love forsythia bushes. The great sign that spring is here. I know the picture is not that great but I did try to sharpen it so that one might see the little buds of flowers popping out. Hooray spring is springing.

This is where Cora will be staying while she is over here in England, although, I don't think she that she will be seeing it much as we are going to take her as much as possible to paint, draw and see the sites.

where is the warm weather


Been waiting like for so long for the weather to warm up so I can get out to paint. I am getting an itchy painting finger. Inside jobs just dont cut it. Used a little picture of a kid with an attitude. LOL

just checking.



Working out some new images for painting ideas. I have so many images on my computer that I get delirious. Well the kids and I went to a horse plowing event during the summer at Howell Farms. http://www.howellfarm.org/ I took alot of pictures while we were there. I have this picture of the farmer checking the produce. It looks like there is a possibility there so I may sketch it out.
