Another lovely Saturday walk with my lovely friend Barb. Barb is leaving soon to visit her daughters in the U.S. Their father recently passed away. I’m going to miss you!










My Valentine rose from Gloria is still vibrant. I found this beauty mesmerizing as I was sitting here writing.
I have been having an interesting experience with color, in particular a light shade of turquoise…or is it aqua? Not sure. In any event, I chose this color as the accent color for my kitchen and the entire living room before I left home. Then, as I am here, and watching The Seaside Hotel, I see that this color features prominently in the hotel. It is also Gloria’s favorite color. The entire house here, inside and out is painted this color.
I gave Gloria a card similar to this for for Valentine’s Day:

This is the cup I use here for my hot water:

What’s it all about????
Today Ash gave me a “Look at that!!” when I sent my practice video. I felt a shift in my body today. I found that I get the best result if I breathe in on the hairline and breathe out on the shade. So, with this one, it’s breathe-in, breathe-out, breathe-in. I also have to put pressure on the nib and pull down a little bit to keep it in a straight line on the downstroke. Such a beautiful, fun, art.

First, you are amazingly patient! I love your new color.
Weird thing about that is I have also acquired
the same thing with that color!! My new sofa, my rug. Teals/aqua..
It’s our sister MP <3 That was her favorite color! <3
Patient? How so. And I completely forgot how much Mary Pat loved that color! Very strange.
Love the card you made! So very talented 💘 love and miss you!
Thanks Ann. I love making them, and especially giving them away.
