March is Birthday Month!


 

Red is one year old this month.  He is not quite ready to give up his teddy, in fact I am not sure that he will ever be willing to give up his teddy.  He is full of energy and wants to play, play and play. Babe Girl is six years old and is very set in her ways.  She thinks her job is to guard her humans and works very hard to keep us in sight when we are outside. Red delights in aggravating Babe, but Babe is such a good girl and tolerates him amazingly well.  Both were rescued puppies that have enriched our lives. Photos were taken by Cindy Greene Miller.
 Happy Birthday guys!

The disappearing blog list

I was updating my blog, trying to give it a face lift, add some new pages and somehow I must have deleted my blog list.  I used my blog list to keep up with everyone and it may take me a while to find every one's blog again.  If you notice that you have disappeared from my list please let me know so that I can add you back.
I hate it when things like this happen.

Passion Flowers

This is Project 3 of my class with Susan Bourdet.  The idea for this painting started years ago when I spotted a plant on sale at a local home improvement store.  Lady Margaret Passion Vine came home with me and promptly covered my garden fence.  The butterflies loved her and many photos were taken.   The photos were beautiful but did not think that I had the ability to paint these amazing flowers.  Susan said that I could paint this and so I did.   This watercolor painting is 20x20 inches.
