Summer of Color - Green

The second week of Summer of Color challenge is green.  I have painted the mushroom houses with acrylic paints and am probably going to keep to the same size and style for each week so that I can somehow make them into a journal book. 

Just couldn't resist doing a Martha Lever style colour drop flower though in watercolours.  These challenges are really making me appreciate colour and how they are so different in different mediums.

Why not take a look at Kristin's blog on Monday to see what others have done or click on the flashing badge on the right.

Creative Tuesdays - Springtime

The challenge this week on Mr Toast's Creative Tuesdays is Springtime. This reminded me that every spring my father would buy my mother daffodils each week until their season ended.  This little spring fairy is in memory of them both.

 Why not pop over to Mr Toast's page to see other artists lovely interpretations.

Still working on my goddess

But in the meantime, a whimsical painting using some of my favourite colours.  I am not hurrying with my goddess painting, as I don't want to work on her in artifical light, which only leaves me the weekends because of my job.  Still the days are beginning to draw out again and I am so looking forward to the Spring. Happy weekend everyone!
