Not making much art, but I am making watermelpons!

 Wild morning glories. I was watering them earlier in the summer, but gave up because none sprouted. Then after the rains started, the came back to life. Now I am watering them and they are doing great. Mother Nature is amazing.

 My largest watermelon- it is about 6 inches across.

 This is the second melon it is only about 3 inches across. They may not ripen before it is too cold, but it has been an interesting experiment. My cantelope bloomed like crazy but did not make any melons. I have a very hard time throwing away anything that is still alive, but when the cantelope got bugs I pulled it up and threw it away!

This is a mandala that I created in repsonse to a group working the Grand Mandala Round on the
Wild Precious Studio ning site. On the right side is where I journaled about the mandala and prompts. I did not realize that I was setting up a yellow/gold/purple scheme (when I was working on the mandala the right hand page was hidden, and when I opened it up to do my journaling I realized the pages were color co-ordinated). Of course, yellow and purple are some of my most favorite colors!

Catch up post

Wow, I did not realize that it had been so long since I posted last! Anyway, it is Friday morning and I do not go to work until 11:15, so I am making a catch up post with new images.

A present I bought myself at the State Fair this year. I love this lady's work and buy it whenever I can afford it!

Came into my studio and found Studio Cat (aka Baby Cakes) taking it easy. Next picture is a closeup of her polydactyl claws.

January means Juliana Coles (meandpete producitons
has her Journaling Jam at her Enchanted Journal Pavilion in Albuquerque. I won't share a lot, but here is the results of a positive and negative ( I wish I had.... or I wish I hadn't) journal spread.

This is my past, present, future mandala page

Work continues on the online class, but Juliana has so much to say that it is going slowly! But everything she has to say needs to be said, so I need to be patient with her soulwork!
