another day

yesterday I was playing for a bit in my tiny sketchbook again...

that's the only one I can seem to do anything in this month. But it's a good one to try things out in since the paper is not expensive watercolor. My more expensive sketchbook I can't bring myself to just experiment in, they seem to precious.  

one of these just led to another and another....

 they are just watercolor crayons and then white acrylic ink...

Have a Happy today!

linking to inspire me monday and creative everyday, both inspiring places to visit.....

 5 Things that made me happy this week:

1. I gift of taffy left in my desk at work by my husband...

2. Flowering trees everywhere...

3. A quick page in a scrapbook,,,,,

4. filling our boss's office with balloons for her last day of work before retirement.......

5. Working on a new bright watercolor (in progress)....
I should have  a video of making this for you next week...

dwelling

I  have been putting my mandalas up on the wall at work to add some color to a boring wall and it has given me  chance to ponder and dwell on each piece instead of getting my work done. I catch myself sitting and staring at each piece and as a result, I never think they're done so I have gone back to a few older ones and added more, way more....
