Lynn Playing On Sunday!

First I finished knitting the 30 pieces for this artzy scarf!
 Then I started piecing them together in five groups of six each!
Henry helped by modeling the first group done!
 Here you see them all laid out ready to be sewn and blocked.
 And here I am wearing the finished scarf!
Artistic/Hippie Fashion Statement!
That done I decided to paint! I tried a new way. I masked off the paper first of all so my next frame- able  art would fit in a frame. These are all on 11 X 15 inch 140 lb watercolor paper. Then I slapped paint on the paper...
 and then...I used a black pen to draw the picture. This off a photo on my computer monitor of me eating gelato a week ago!
 Do you recognize this dear friend of mine?
 I don't expect you to recognize the fact that I made dinner last week. That rice was awful and it left a terrible smell in our house that lasted two whole days. The salmon was good though. I really should NOT be allowed in the kitchen. Painting food is much easier than cooking it.
 And this is the same house I painted plein air yesterday, but this time I used this new (to me) style sitting at my computer desk. Again painting and drawing as all these were from photos on the computer, paint first, then ink!

I sure had fun today! I hope you did too in one way or another!!!
