Since I've been on the go, it's been awhile since I've been here on Tuesday.
I hope you all had a great summer, and or fall/winter. Not that summer is over yet, but I do feel that nip in the air. And a few trees have been stroked by nature's paintbrush to keep us aware of the beauty yet to come.
Because I wanted to travel light, I only had a cell phone with me while traveling. I don't have the pics organized yet, but, hopefully, I'll have a few arranged soon, especially a pic of the seahorses that I saw at Ripley's Aquarium in Toronto. I've waited all my life to see them. Sweet things!
Chrysanthemums . . . traditional autumn blooms.
I love the divine colour of these Begonias.
Common Arrowheads. So pretty! |
Abigail--mission control.
My first attempt at fashioning paper clay. A trinket dish painted with acrylic paint and stamped in the middle with a stamp I carved awhile ago. Can't wait to try another. Next time I'll try watercolour paint.
If you haven't tried Paperclay, I think you will love it. It's light weight and versatile. It air dries in a day (no heat required) and you can paint it with acrylic or watercolour.

Water colour added to my sketchbook doodles. Tricky...you can only add a bit liquid or the paper lifts. My Stillman and Burn Zeta series sketchbooks recently arrived, so they should be better for watercolour.
Fern frond and maple seeds.
On the needles. . .
Swallowtail shawl. Yarn Brooklyn Tweed's Vale... so lovely and squishy to knit with.
Cultivate your dreams.
Have a lovely week...and enjoy a great long Labour Day weekend for my U.S. and Canadian pals.
