The sun has found us again today , a perfect day to hang out laundry :-) This week just seemed to fly by so I missed WIP Wednesday so I will report on Thursday instead.
An update on the Red White and Blue Blog Hop , I now have three blocks completed ,I am pleased and to see those blocks and many more wonderful creative blocks be sure to come back and visit on July 1 -16 , you can check the schedule by clicking on the icon on my sidebar .Sorry I can't share any photos of my blocks just now just know they are red , white and blue ;-)
I had the strong urge to make postcards again so this time decided on landscapes as I have not done those in a while and I really enjoy that challenge of finding what I believe is the perfect piece for the image I have in my mind so these are the two I made .
And number two ;
A scene somewhere in the mind of moi ;-) no particular destination just a play of fabrics .
I thought I would also share this photo with you , I was visiting with my parents again on the weekend , trying to get their apartment set up and the house cleaned out and in doing so came across this painting I did in 1982 , they don't have room for it so I decided I would like to have it back rather than see it tossed .
I took oil painting classes for a couple of years and this was during that time , I rather like the bright colors and it is now hanging in my dining room , come winter this sunny scene may cheer me up :-0
Thanks for stopping by and hope your day is filled with sunshine .
Hugs Sheila
