More things I love.....

I do not know why I have a fascination with old signs on buildings. I love them. I love seeing the peeling paint come off a painted brick building. Its like the building is showing its truth.



This is a statue in a fountain..... It looks like an average day in my house !!!!

Love the feeling of a city street in the fall.

Again, my love of vintage signs. You gotta love this milk jar!

This has it all....... peeling paint , writing. A perfect wall.

I am actually working on another Frederick piece and I needed some pictures for reference. I am trying to be o.k. with not being able to do it all. It is hard, to let go. The need to have perfect moments...... I think my paint is peeling and me truth is exposed. Positive thoughts lead to positive actions....... I must remember this as we enter this holiday season.

Talk to you soon,

Around town.....

I had to run an errand in town yesterday and happened to have my camera with me...... so I ceased the opportunity to take some shots around town.


I imagine that they pay someone well to collect these leaves!!!

Love this little house...... a Fuchsia door to boot.

If I was not in such a hurry, I would have snuck a peek around the corner.........

I do not know what it is about Farms , Farm life, the entire farming industry...... I just love it. Call me crazy but a beat up old Chevy Truck would make this picture perfect ( especially a red one ).

I love encaustic!!!!

I made a change today, and took an art class myself! I learned how to do encaustic collage. I just want to tell you that I LOVE it!!! I am so excited to get some supplies and go crazy.


I used a picture of my boys and some vintage paper. I love the entire process really. I love how this turned out .........

I will keep you posted on how my future projects turn out.

Old Favorites......

I was at my library with the boys earlier today when I cam across two of my all time favorite books. I hate to admit this, but I love these books purely for the illustration. I remember checking these out soooo many times when they were little.

Now my guys are all about graphic novels, club penguin ..... and things I just do not understand. I looked through all of my old favorites with a sigh.... if I could just keep them little.

So , I let them check out what they wanted. However I got these just for me!

I just added these little ornaments into my shop. I will have more tomorrow!
