Anyway - we have a name and we have a sign on a gate!!!!

It's a lovely day
Tree Planting with Mum and Dad
Here we are planting a 'Summer Beauty' with Mum and Dad
When I was a small child I would wander around and say to every one - 'it's a lovely day' - so I thought I would share a few special photos of the happenings at Scribbly Gums with Mum and Dad last weekend.

Relaxing after lunch watching Phil put together the egrets for the 'billabong'
The egrets in their new home!!
Have a great week everyone

Coastal Trip to Eden
What is it about the sea and the vast ocean that draws us back regularly??? I love the way the sea smells, the sand on my feet and the sound of the waves.
This time I have had a bit of fun with the seashells - staying away from those pale pastel shades and aiming for the blue black of the mussels.... what fun they were to paint.
The other one - couldn't help but pop in some flora!
This was rather fun to paint - I loved its structural form and the surprising colours in the leaves and stems - it is a lucadendran (sp?) and it was a challenge to pick a flower as it was planted near the office. Finally we went for a walk at night - I keep telling Phil that it is for the sake of Art (or science) ..... he doesn't buy it - but it does come along for my night snatchings!!
There was this wonderful Callistimen (bottlebrush) and instead of the tube of flowers it had a round form the size of a golf ball. I had to add the grevillia pods on the right - I love those curly bits!
Lillies are lovely in their form but difficult to paint as white on white is a challenge. This has scanned more yellow than the painting is in real like - but you get the feel of it none the less.
This is a little camellia I have outside my craft room which comes back with flowers each year even if I neglect it! It is the one which we all know - but it was challenging to keep to the pink and not make it too exciting!
I added also a few I have done recently..... Please enjoy - and note that these are copyright. I will be adding another step by step later this month!

These are the shells I was speaking of .....
they certainly don't fade into the background
I rather like their boldness!!
