Ready for Tea?

 Roses and Tea? They go together? Getting the pieces in place for an Island Illustrators alphabet show, letter "T"

Slow start to the day

Ever have one of those mornings when nothing starts of quite right? 

I think this little character is having one of those days a very slow start on a wet morning. It will get better :) Inspired by illustration friday challenge slow....

Which one do you like best? I had fun adding the rain :) Trying to put together a portfolio for children's illustrations to send to publishers which images should I include? Any suggestions and feedback would be appreciated!

Rosy

Working on a flower design, what do you think? Teapot? teacup?

Ready for an entrance?

 Illustration Friday theatre challenge. Finished something...out in the garden most of the day moving earth building composts enjoying the sun :)

Ghosts of Summer, Remembrance.

Ghost of Summer

Today was short sleeve weather, gardening, long weekend filled with remembrance, display at the library with my fathers medals from WW2, events from Ottawa in the past few weeks....time passing, not forgotten.

Missing Making Bouquets!

Missing making bouquets? I didn't think I would be saying this after a busy summer of picking and painting each week! That said I'm already looking at seed catalogues! Wonderful sunny day working in the garden digging dahlias, planning for next year, garlic planting.......

Poppy Pillow Covers Finally!

 Finally the dark days have brought some sewing time. Poppy Pillow covers are in the shop  Updated some prints as well :)

 Couldn't resist showing off our garlic harvest! We have been enjoying butternut squash, quince and fresh rosemary roasted all from the garden!

Most of the garlic for next year is planted these are the small ones!

Smoothly Falling.....Fallen

 Ginkgo leaves falling.....Oh so dark outside!

Background? No background?
