mid-OCTOBER already!!

Time is flying! it always seems to do that this time of year, before you know it we'll be eating turkey and freaking out about the holiday shopping (well at least I'll be). I am going to say it now and I MAY end up a liar but I am REALLY going to try to do the bulk of my shopping on Etsy. There I said it. OK back to October. So fall is here on Long Island and for some reason these leaves are not moving as quickly as I want them too. They're getting there but, man, there's still alot of green out there guys!



So I walk the dog every night (that's my shift) and I gathered up a few leaves to paint in my precious journal. That's the good one that is hand-made, beautiful bound, that I coddle waaay too much, so much that I hardly use it. I am commited to getting more work in that one.





The paper is amazing and when I finally get in there, I'm always saying, what took you so long, lady? This was fun but, boy, I got carried away in the lower left , whoa! what happened there! I guess it got too late in the evening, LOL! Sleepy painters should go to bed :))

Hey! Right back at ya! I just went through all your pages and you have some great work here. I really like your sketches, your lettering, and your watercolors. Hmmm. It appears we like the same stuff. Good thing we found each other. :)

Yes! I too am glad we found each other! I can tell we're going to get on well;)

Oh! I do so love your painted leaves! I have no patience for painting real life things. Almost everything I paint and/or draw is imagined. I really envy anyone that can paint something that's sitting in front of them. Excellent work!
