Little Angel

Angel? Fairy? All dressed up with wings? Perhaps all three!

If I had wings

Light as air, dreaming of flying a new flower fairy.

For Watercolor Wednesday

Creative Tuesdays patterns

 Patterns...all around us

 Things could hide within the patterns

Garden Fairy waiting....

 Even fairies have to wait....for the party to start? For their valentine to arrive?

Which color pallet do you like best? I'm undecided.

Fall Leaves, getting ready to hibernate, hiding.....

You never know what you might find curled up within a leaf. The acorns are falling they make a rather dashing hat, the leaves make colorful clothing.
A little Illustration Friday and a touch of Paint Party Friday plus Artists in Blogland and a lot of autumn weather.
The leaves are coming down....

Disguise Illustration Friday and end of summer paint party

As disguises go it was not the best. Luckily the sunflowers were tall enough the children in the garden couldn't reach them. She still felt nervous and ready to duck between the petals when she heard the children or the dreaded cat.

I have had flowers and fairies stuck in my head after reading A.S. Byatt's The Children's Book.

Here and here are more of my fairies.

Paint Party Friday summers almost over but the sunflowers are really just getting going here on the west coast.

Fairy in the garden

The dahlia made the perfect perch. Humming birds dropped by for a chat, bee's stopped by to gossip. It was social buzz central.
If only those pesky earwigs would move out!!!













The dahlias this year have made up for some of the other garden short comings ie: tomatoes basil/nil greens and zucchini and cukes +++++

The white dahlias are at least 6" across or close to 11" amazing!
