Day 173: Yellow

What a beautiful summer morning, A perfect day to roll up ones sleeves and hit the gardens or go for a walk or .... go to work. Actually had a few extra moments this morning while waiting for the students to come down for breakfast. I woke up this morning thinking about the floods in Duluth and the images I saw on the news of the streets looking like a large stone river bed. So I did a pen and ink inspired by that event. I always marvel at the power of water. It can be calming and peaceful or in large and small emounts powerully destructive. Here's to a rapid dry out and renewal Duluth. I also added a bonus piece I forgot I had done. Peace and fabulousness

Day 172: Yellow

Feeling for the people in Duluth today as they face unprecedented flooding. I did a simple painted flower on 3" x 3" canvas. Happy Hump Day! Peace and fabulousness! (My camera doesn't pick up purples well. The real piece is actually a more magenta colored background.)

Day 171: Yellow

Seemed to have spent a lot of one on one time with the students today...you always hope they hear your words. And the care behind them like the little guy who said he was going to be a good boy after getting in trouble. I told him he was already a good kid, he just needed to make a good choice. So since I got done with work a bit early I made my piece in the afternoon. Nice! It's entitled a lemon with a twist. Finished just before my back cracking appointment. Sweet! Peace and fabulousness!

Day 170 : Yellow

Monday. One thing about running a summer program is everyday seems to hold a surprise or challenge. Today had both with a nugget of a good thing too. Wasn't sure what today's yellow piece would be. Last night I packed up the the yellow project with the orange and red and I remembered sad frog. So I did a yellow frog who turned out more annoyed looking than sad. Whattup with that? peace and fabulousness.

Today we are taking inspiration from Jill Gammon Carillo Flora365 blog. So I once again went to my garden for inspiration. Did some photography. Realizing more and more this is a medium I want to persue more of.... Happy Father's Day to all you dads out there, especially to mine: who has taught me patience, humor, gentleness, integrity and a strong work ethic. I love ya Dad! Peace and fabulousness!

Day 168: Yellow

Just realized my days of yellow are coming to an end in 2weeks!!! I can't wait to do green. Not one of my favorite colors, but the possibilities should be more abundant. I hope. Went to the beautiful wedding of Natalie for ocer an hourand Matt. Such a nice wedding and gorgeous chapel. Thanks to my craptastic phone and being lost in my unairconditioned car didn't get to the reception. :( probably for the best. In light of my own singleness and a multiple other things going on in work /community just saying. Peace and fabulousness. Looks like I will have to retake this one too!

Day 167 : Yellow

Hello Friday!!! You can't see it but I'm doing the happy dance. Was trying to post yesterday's piece but our internet is down at work. Today's project is a pissed papercut wasp. Really not sure why it's mad just is. Wanted to add something to show its' source of anger but was drawing a blank. Maybe a loss of sleep. Off center rage filled neighbor may have been off again, woke up to 3 cop cars and a towtruck in the front of the house after hearing and seeing a car roll slowly, parking ect over and over repeatedly earlier in the evening. So glad I can sleep in tomorrow. peace and fabulousness! Pictures on Sunday! Will have to retake this picture Having trouble capturing this one in a photo.
