I am glad you see you have been painting because one of these days I am going to buy one of your paintings....you just need to let me know which ones you are wanting to sell. You are such a talent Erin, both in painting and photography.

So beautiful Erin! I have some blue bottles like those ~ just waiting for some flowers to pick to put in them. Glad you're enjoying nicer weather. It's pouring rain here, but I'm just so glad it's not snow :)

Dear Erin
You have made my day! I am truly honored to have you follow along with me. You are an amazing artist. Your flower meadow looks like Queen Ann's lace.. I just love this one.
Your kind words of praise touched my heart.. Thank you so much..

You should try needle felting.. It is very relaxing and I am sure you would do well with the wool..
Enjoy your weekend.
Blessings,
Penny
