Teri C. tells me that today is Illustration Friday and the theme is "Breeze"...I admire Teri C.'s art and do my best to follow in her footsteps as closely as possible hoping to learn and not trip and fall on my face too much...LOL...
Today I took a short walk down the street where I live and found these beautiful blossoms...
spreading their pollen
and I breathed it in and came home to a runny nose from breathing Spring!
My next door neighbor had put this little bird house in his treeand I imagine his children had some help in the painting of it.
Sweet.
Tweet.
I will keep my eyes out for new residents.
Happy FridayShabat Shalom
Oh what pretty blossoms. I saw one blooming here today. a darker pink. I am going to have to go back and take the photo of it soon.

I hope your fall weather comes soon to give you respite.
Teri C. hopefully we are both enjoying this game! I'll try to keep up with the cactus/blooms/animals/Illustrations
What is Thursday? A day off?
I don't go to church so that is your domain alone...I used to go to Synagogue but drawing there would be frowned upon I fear.
I pray you are the artist is charge of church matters! ;-)
The illustration makes me laugh with her dangling earrings slapping her in the face! Hilarious!
ReplyDeleteOur cherry tree bloomed a month ago but now it looks awful. The leaves are brownish (instead of maroon) and it just seems "off."
Maybe it bloomed too soon.
Did I every tell you I have a friend who used to live in Vacaville? Her mom and sisters all stayed there. My friend can't take the summer heat. She also couldn't take the PG fog so she bought a house in the sunbelt in Monterey. She has lots of money that buys her options. Not my world!
beautiful sparkly things you've found on your walk...
ReplyDeleteand the illustration is SO original and fantastic...
the way everything is moving with the breeze is amazing...
loved it... a lot...
Studio, no,this is the first I hear of your Vacaville friend. It is too hot here in summer...and the fog is bad if you have to travel out of town. But winter is mild, and spring beautiful. So it all balances out! Sorry about your early blooming blossoms. The rain may damage ours as well, but they are pretty right now.
ReplyDeleteHB: I'm glad you found the sparkles you like so much...and yes, the Breeze is funny and fun.
