While the world outside...

...is a wintry white, the studio is always filled with colour.

This painting was loosely based on a photo of our Opal, who was always to be found in places she was supposed to be staying away from.  

She had an affinity for bugs of all kinds, 

 and pretty much ruled the roost - hence the crown.

And given that it's Valentine's Day today, you know there had to be hearts somewhere!

The card-making has been hot and heavy for the past while, and most of them were mailed late - how did that happen?!

I've been playing in the journal as well, and I'm wondering what ghost got into this spread - so not my usual colour palette!

This is much more like it!  😃

I'll leave you today with my take on the Valentine's Day - it's one size fits all, whether single, in a relationship or married.  Happy Valentine's Day, my friends.

In our house...

so when a skiing injury created a rolled ankle, something had to be done,

especially when another ski trip was in the offing.

Truly, nothing hurts at all, as long as the colour is good, right?
