The meaning of a word,to me,
is not as exact as the meaning of a color.
Colors and shapes make a more definite statement than words.

Flowers are like friends,
they bring color to your world.

A little flower that blooms in May,
A lovely sunset at the end of a day,
Someone helping a stranger along the way,
That’s heaven to me.

Over in the blink of an eye. The Gathering. The month. The year. Only a few more days. And I still have so many ideas. Well, that is a cool problem to have. Haha.

A few more days, and it will be October. That is the beginning, of the end of the year. You know what I mean. Holidays, so much to do. There are several paintings from this month, that I feel are still works in progress. Minor tweaks or additions. If I am honest with myself, I probably won’t get back to them until next year. And by then, I might forget what it is I thought was wrong. Haha.

Have a great week everyone! 😀🌻🌵🌻

In the final week now. Curious to know if your July has passed as quickly as mine. Haha. Choosing this 2 x 2 inch size was a surprisingly good idea. So much fun! I’m going to keep a stack of minis at the ready.

Time to paint!

Enjoy!
