Blue Eyed Hoot -Guest Heart Thursday

Yesterday, after picking a big bowl of blackberries, the wee girl and I made one of the best blackberry pies I've ever tasted.  Then my darling niece and I spent the afternoon painting together. 

Here is the first little painting I did--I was told owls have blue eyes!  Who knew?  lol  My niece knows "lots of stuff."  (grin) Of course, there are hearts hidden in this painting.  Have a wonderful weekend.

Pink Spring -Guest Heart Thursday

This is a little watercolor I painted when my niece was here for a visit.  Watercolor is so much fun with a six-year old!  Of course, I have hidden a few hearts in this tiny piece of art.  It is only 2.5x3.5 inches big!

Flower Face -Guest Heart Thursday

A few years ago, one early morning in Spring, I came across a tree which reminded me of a faery with long tresses of flowers.  I photographed those blossoms with the idea of using it in a drawing someday.

Here is the springtime faery who's pink tresses were inspired by a springtime tree with flowing beauty.  I've never seen that tree in bloom since--she seems to have vanished.  But, then--that is the way of fairies.

Pink Shoulders

The sunsets have been unusually gorgeous lately, probably due to all the field burning taking place this time of year! Such an unromantic assumption! Nevertheless, I was grateful to catch this lovely young lady as she floated across the deep blue of mid-summer sky--she of the Pink Shoulders.  She is best seen when enlarged.

Below you see her as I first saw her.

Papa and the Pink Cat

This is Papa. Papa is one of the most lovely down to earth people you could ever meet.

.

In this picture, you can see Papa is really an elf. You would never guess it to look at him. I surmise he must be an elf because of the magic he does with cement. Papa is a true artist. He can turn cement into an authentic looking wooden porch, or add color to make the most lovely rock walkway imaginable.

.

Papa is so gifted, in these hard times, he does not lack for work. People know the incredible quality of service he gives, and of his honest, hard-working nature. I consider it a great honor to know this wonderful, gifted artist.

Here a pink cat is perched upon his shoulders because it chose to do so. I have NO idea how it ended up in this drawing. (grin)
