World Watercolor Month 2023

I am taking part in World Watercolor Month. I was tempted not to, there is already so much on my to do list. I know you know exactly what I mean. 😄

But I missed my colors. And brushes. And I am so enjoying my “new” desk. I have two other large projects going, and I am squeezing out a tiny little spot to paint these tiny little pieces. Even still, the work area feels so much more spacious. Ahhhh.

I think a little bit of the Feng Shui, rejuvenate the chi flow has made a difference as well. Isn’t that part of why we do our spring cleaning?

Saguaro sanctuary was finished with an hour to spare. Unfortunately, there was a glitch, and I was not able to enter it in the garden bedding weekly contest. UGGHH! I tried six or seven times, in each of the formats accepted. Nothing worked. I contacted Spoonflower, and they said they are looking into it. I didn’t think that anything could be done, but I thought I should let them know. It was just the gremlins in the machine.

At least I can feel good about having met the deadline, and having a new design. On to the next. If you would like to take a look at this weeks entries, follow the link. There are over 2000 entries.

We had a wonderful long rain yesterday. Light, steady, gloomy and grey. I thoroughly enjoyed watching the shower.

Wishing you JOY!

Funny story. I worked on this design for a submission to Uppercase Magazine. The typography issue. But I missed the deadline. I was done, and I thought, I’ll look at it again tomorrow and make sure there aren’t any holes. Well, I woke up that morning knowing what day it was. But half way thru, my lupus brain glitched, and I lost track. LOL. UGH! Oh well. I have a new pattern, the swatches are ordered and it will be available in my Spoonflower shop soon.

Merry Christmas. In shades of prickly pear, desert rose, desert clay, Sedona sand, ocotillo red and desert pine.
