How about some random tid-bits for today? Snippets such as candy colored petals from the garden? I am crazy about candy colors, are you?
They always get my full attention...
You know what I forgot to tell you?
Remember my dressing table that I painted from white to chocolate brown in September?
Well, I loved it chocolate brown - enjoyed it, and then realized, I am much more Marie Antoinette-ish...
So, on a total whim (November 1st), I whipped up a favorite shade by mixing different acrylic paint colors, and...
I now have a sort of teal blue/sea foam green dressing table...
I am now in love.
Totally.
So my kind of color.
Peaceful, yet bright.
I even took off the handles, soaked/stripped off years of paint from the person I got it from 10 years ago (estate sale), and found lovely golden brass metal underneath.
I have been enjoying it all month, candy colors win for me, I guess?
The petals look so pretty lined up on...
That light blue green...
The garden is gifting such sweet scents this week.
I have been drawing quite a lot...
I am so happy when little faces find me, tug on my bloomers, and beg to jump onto paper.
Sometimes they visit me deep in REM sleep, and I have to beg them to hang on so that I don't forget them by morning. My dream life is so crazy active, I live in two worlds, it feels like.
I am constantly studying, watching ballerinas...
Really playing with my hands, trying to work out gracefulness on paper...
And, don't tell him I told you, but sometimes, I have my own ballerina model...
Mister Lovee.
Who has to hold a ballet pose while I draw. He is thrilled at that, I assure you, haha!
I LOVE my breaks with the boys, watching them romp around...
And the best part...
Fresh and tangy pick me ups are all over, in the form of lemons and pomegranates. I love picking something in the garden, and really enjoying it.
Well, I suppose I have to get back to work now.
The music is playing loud and the paint is drying...
This lovely little, is especially for you...
I hope you are having a super nice day, it is so fresh and lovely outside in my neck of the woods...
What is your outside like right at this moment?
Love, V
