Don't be Afraid -Paint Party Friday

I have been asked to submit some ideas for a children's book!  This would be a paying job.  I did this one, but he was too realistic so it is back to the drawing board.

I'm SO excited! 

Happy Paint Party Friday, sweet Friends.  Blessing and hope to you, dear ones.

Blue Jay Moon Flower -Paint Party Friday

The blue jays are out in force lately.  They are squawking and screaming in the trees.  I can't tell if they are happy or sad--but that's how blue jays are.  We call them scrub jays here in Oregon.  They amuse me sometimes--especially when they tease the area cats.  Muahahahaaa....

I hope you are doing alright.  This stay in place order is wearing thin.  Stay safe out there and Happy Paint Party Friday!

Sharing Secrets -Paint Party Friday

I love elves...  This little one has a friend--a bird in hand, so to speak.  My precious Daddy could talk to birds and I have some of his abilities.  This elf has the gift of bird speak, too.  One can tell they are exchanging important secrets.

Happy Paint Party Friday, sweet Friends--thank you SO much for dropping by. 

Nutmeg the Elf Boy -Paint Party Friday

I've been drawing a lot of little fairies lately.  I suppose these hard times turn my heart toward the whimsical.  This little fellow reminds me a lot of Timmy--the little fairy Mom told us about in her stories.  I call him Nutmeg.  What a cutie!

Happy Paint Party Friday, sweet Friends.

Mushroom Home -Paint Party Friday

Can you believe it is Mayday?  I can't believe how quickly the time has gone by since the shut down.  People are really hurting out there.  My children won't be coming by for Mother's Day as they always do.  I miss them so much.

Setting that aside, I love how this drawing turned out.  This is a little Mushroom homestead.  In the background, you can see the shooting star flowers which once grew in the forests next to my home.  I've always thought Fairy houses might be made in mushrooms--and fairy castles were, of course, located in wonderful mossy stumps.  I've seen a few of them.

I hope you are all doing okay.  Happy Paint Party Friday.
