My travel journal from last September's trip.
It is mostly a combination of photos and sketches. Even my husband, John did one.

Every year, I paint a few Christmas cards. This year I painted 5 , however I forgot to photograph two of them. We also purchase some cards for other local artists.

Test

I spend an enjoyable afternoon with a couple of friends, making collages at the Cut and Paste Gallery, on Cunard St. Halifax.
I had tulips on my mind, as it is tulip season.

I'm late posting this card I made for Hella's birthday. Lately, I have been sketching or painting over previous painting exercises. It has been so much fun.

Today's market doodle. Hum, what to do? Aha I have just finished a roll of washi tape.
I think this looks like wrapping paper.
