Summer job

Is anyone else having trouble working during this lovely summer weather we've been having?  I certainly am, but have forced myself to put down the sunscreen and pick up a paint brush.  It's a good thing Karen and Brandon's bouquet is bright summer colors....a little bit of sunshine in my studio.

Extra Extra, Read All About It

It's time for an update, and I have some fun things to share.

In other news, I've started the painting for Karen and Brandon that is being gifted by Brandon's mom.  This is such a summer time bouquet to be working on....the colors are fantastic.
 I got a little excited to paint and forgot to take a "before" photo....see my dabbles of color in the upper left corner.  Oops!

 If you don't remember what the original bouquet looked like, check back to the "Time for Everything" post on May 17th or just check back soon to see the flowers emerge!
