Tropical Fringe

Today is the second of my three days off work! No big plans, I just want to spend time in my studio painting, catch up on some household chores, and hang out with my kitties, who always bring me joy and inspiration!

Oh, I got an early birthday gift—a new iWatch! I’m having fun learning about all its features. My husband was especially impressed when we found out it can call 911 automatically if I fall again; not a bad thing. I’m trying to embrace technology a little more, be more efficient, time to work smarter, not harder!

    My Apple watch is useful. I got it for the falling thing. I like this painting very much — it’s so alive!

      Thanks Martha! Yeah, some of this tech stuff has benefits, it still all scares me though, too much sharing.

    Lots of energy in that painting. Love the colors. Happy early birthday and enjoy your watch. I’d probably never learn how to use it. LOL

      Thanks Gigi! It’s surprisingly easy to use, but I will doubtfully use half of its potential.😉

        You’re welcome.

        Happy place in deed.

        My studio is my happy place too Tiffany.

        I’m working on a sketch of the 4 horsemen of the Apocalypse. Pencil for now then graphite later. Then I’ll order the canvas.

          My mother was very methodic in her artwork, her paintings were planned and thought out in advance, like what you are describing. I’m pretty much the complete opposite! Much respect my friend!

            You’re welcome as always.

            Like you, when I create abstract on a canvas or mixed media I plan nothing. Just free style painting, ebb and flow.

            Enjoy what’s left of the weekend.
