Close to Home

Inspired by a picture of a beautiful sunset taken while riding the ferry home the other day.  Now  I'm snowed in it's a good time to catch up on some things. Thinking I will do a little more detailing on the Lighthouse. There's been a major discussion on whether it should have a black or gold frame.  Whoever buys it can decide which they prefer.

Morning flight

 Playing with poured paint and needed a subject.  With some highlighting and a few splatters the background became wave in a sunrise.  So added some butterflies for the  subject.

Already few to an exhibit to replace "Rainy Day" which sold.

Philodendromania

Playing with beautiful wooden stamps giving to me by a friend I have placed them in a philodendron monstera., a native of Mexico.   Many of my friend have these monsters growing in their house,  OK I'm one of them, Where they try to grow to their full size.  In reference to their size, they can grow over to 30 ft.  .  You need a really LARGE space to gracefully accommodate them.
