It was super hot again today, so fall has not found Southern California just yet. Wishful thinking I suppose. Days are a little shorter.  I noticed for the first time today. Major bummer.

Hope you all had a happy Monday! Sending prayers out for friends and family in Colorado and New Mexico. For everyone, blessings!

This was done on a scrape piece of watercolor paper. Every scrap is sacred. I did this before the challenge, I still have more work to do on the paintings sitting on my desk, and I just won’t have time to finish them today. I wanted to post, in case I don’t get  home until late this evening.

Hope you all enjoy the weekend!

30 In 30, Day Thirteen

We are nearing the halfway point in Leslie Saeta’s 30 day challenge.  The internet has been out most of the day, so I have yet see what my friends and fellow artist have worked on.  I have a dinner date tonight, with my cousin and her four adorable daughters. The painting I started for today will have to be for tomorrow, it isn’t quite finished.

This lemon is one of the paintings I was able to save. Actually, it was done, it just was still drying and it look ruined. But when I looked the next morning, it looked pretty great. I am happy with it. I will be able to use it for an illustrated recipe.

Do you want to know a bit more about why lemons are so good? The link will lead you to an article I wrote last year.

Thanks for stopping by to take a look. Don’t forget to visit Leslie’s site!
