Let it Melt! Let it Melt!



HI ! Well I'm tired of the snow as I'm sure most of you are. I've been painting Chickadees in the snow. We've had so many beautiful birds to our feeders. Cupcake -our kitty- has been so excited running and peering out at them. Sadie, our lab, has enjoyed the cold weather too.

I've frozen a few washes outside as we got down to 9 degrees one night. Just put the watercolor wash out as quickly as possible and run back inside. Always weigh them down so they don't blow away. Had that happen. Well John wants an omelette so it is lunchtime. I'll talk to you soon. Stay warm and well.love and hugs to each of you,Diana

      Thank you Maywyn, Cupcake is really feeling her oats. Sadie wanted us to play ball in the snow but the ball won't bounce and it's been so cold. Thank you I wanted to use the background in this one I love the dark browns and blues! love,Diana
