stained glass




Miss Lucy loves the new glass. I ordered a third mandala but they kept sending me the wrong item. They sent me a giant flock of birds! Then a giant mandala that was really ugly. Gave up on that and will look around. I want to hang one more in the downstairs bath. Lucky I waited to return the birds until I got the second mess up. Dang. Hard to be too mad because I love the pieces that did arrive. Really like the other but oh well. 

watercolor

 I actually enjoyed painting these little watercolors.

Pemaquid Lighthouse

THIS place is so beautiful and relaxing. I've been trying to get here for a few weeks and we finally found the spot! Crashing waves and sail boats. Only an hour from the house. Very few people and most were locals.

Found some great lamps at Wayfair! Also the arbor is ever changing.

 

mixing greens and black

Check out my water...I was mixing blues and reds to get black. So cool! Anyway, I also mixed an entire sheet of greens with my new Daniel Smith watercolors. So pretty. Even as a rookie I can see a difference in the Prima greens and blues compared to Daniel Smith  Those pallets are pretty but chalky and not as natural.

Just swatching watercolor is very relaxing and satisfying.
