Wait, what? Only nine days left? Whoa! That went by fast! Felt like doing an Aloe plant. I love succulents and cacti. They are so sculptural, even exotic. Had fun with day twenty-one!

Today is drawing day for the third giveaway. I will put the numbers 1 – 7 into a dish, and choose one at random. From that day, I will choose one comment, by also putting numbers (one for each comment) into a dish. Stay tuned tomorrow for the lucky draw!

Everything but the kitchen sink. Well, almost. Collage, acrylic, oil pastel, palette knife, finger paint, pattern. had fun making a mess. Then making something out of it.

Really excited about filling my Sketchbook. There are 110 pages to look forward to!  This is Inktense pencils and water-soluble Neocolor crayons. I picked up this tiny, about 2.5 inches, pot at Michaels yesterday. They had double coupons, so it was about 95 cents. How could I resist. A smile and a bit of greenery for my desk.

I’d love to have a few small, live, succulents scattered around. I might try again. I can grow plants outdoors, but indoors is another story. And you do you know how hard it is to kill a succulent? Disaster. Ha ha.

I played with the greens, just because I could. Can you tell I had fun? The plant is actually more of a fresh celery green.

Happy weekend friends!
