Happy Valentines Day!

Hi, I've been painting and have finished my Orchids watercolor just now. I may add one little brush stroke or two to the top of the left side larger white petal,just at the top to define it more. I can see it fine but once I put it here.. it is  hard to see it from the white of the background.

Heard from the Puppy! Sarah the mother dog is getting even larger. Kendra, her owner said her dear belly is only 4 inches from the floor. The earliest we can hear the puppies are born will be Feb. 22.. Can you believe it..!! We'll actually have a dear puppy soon! 

Wishing you a wonderful Valentines!! I've thought of course of my Daisy,my yellow lab, today. One day when she was a puppy, John was standing by the door holding her in his arms as I was leaving to go to the grocery store.  I kissed Daisy and walked out the door and realized.. "Oops" I forgot to kiss John, so back I go to kiss him. He declared it was always like that.. :)  ha ha..The dear man gave me roses!!! I was so tickled so I'm going to fix some nice coffee and go paint roses. I got him a steak to fix for supper.

love to you and Happy Valentines Day! Diana   

Doggie Names Needed and What I'm painting now!

HI, This is the demo I did for class. I had it all drawn and then painted one of the orchids there. Today I've painted the second one. We had 4 orchids to paint from. This is one I bought. (There's always some excuse to buy flowers /orchids!! and I love flowers so.. )

 It's a rainy day here. I had Tai Chi at ESO in Belle Haven this morning,my friend Beth and I are taking it. Jim Mahoney is the teacher and we have learned so very much. He's a very dear man and excellent teacher.

Puppy news.. Sarah,the mother yellow lab is doing well and getting larger as we speak.. Her belly is almost to the floor. She is due to have puppies the end of this month.( We get first pick-- I'm so excited!!!)

 Now we need names.. anyone got any doggie names.. I'd love it if you'd share some. I'll get finally pick of course.. with a little say from John.. :) Girl probably, but some boy names too in case!!! Let me know!! thank you, talk to you soon,Diana
