Art Inspiration

This is what happens when we have peonies, my favorite flower. First a little sketch. Then a drawing.  Then, hmmm... this would be a nice print block, and now... NOW... I am going to be carving FOREVER.  It’s a wonderful work, really, to see this come into fruition in front of my eyes, but it is a long process and my hands are tired. 

 I think I’m gong to go for a walk.  Maybe I’ll find flowers...

Peonies, My Favorite, Bubba!

Just a little piece of gorgeousness to brighten your day.  Peonies are my absolute favorite flower.  When we lived in points North, the first thing I would do is plant a hedge of these beautiful babies. Now that we live in the South, we can’t grow because it doesn’t freeze so I buy stems whenever I get the chance.  That chance is rare and usually expensive... but OH so worth it! Anyway, good morning!!  Take a whiff and imagine a fragrance that rivals roses. Love!! 

And... have a fantastic day!!!!
