I took this photo yesterday at the end of a working day, not the beginning as usual. There are three paintings on the go these days, and I am still messing with yellows, violets and greens as you can see. I am also really enjoying this little card I found on Sunday. And these are my lovely girls getting the summer-bug...

Rea is eighteen, just finished her first year of university. Lucy is happy monkey as usual...

Am I a happy mom? You bet...

Don't you love those summer afternoons, the sun is softer, the air orangey, there's a light breeze, and you sit and draw hearts and a ton of silly things with huge, humongous , pink, yellow and light blue chalks. Is that a proper summer afternoon or what?
