My dear friend, fellow labor in the Lord and artist, Kay of @kay.kiria, tagged me to post a photo of myself in the studio. Over a month ago I had some professional photographs taken my another artist and friend, Tracey with @traceyandmartinphoto so here go Kay. Sitting in the he blue chair, in the blue room enjoying the time with Tracey. . . I have not seriously taken up a brush to do my own work because my life have gotten crammed with just striving to thrive. I feel like I'm on a treadmill but not loosing any weight. 🙈🙈🙈🙄😬 . . I'm tagging to post a photo of your at work in your studio. @thedivinebutterfly @nicolinemann @thingsunseendesigns (at Miramar, Florida) https://www.instagram.com/p/CGnI0rHHMHH/?igshid=1dbqlhl9yx46p

Blue Dahlia in my #society6 and see on #pintrest. Blue is my favorite color, needless to say I painted these dahlias in purple shade. When I imported into Photoshop to create the repeat pattern, I tried changing color to blue. So happy with it. Again, another favorite. 😊 What do you think?

Fall leaves for this month's #flowerpaintingclub project. I added salt to some leaves. Paper not full dry so salt is still visible. It gives interesting textures to the painting. . . .

The tickseed flower for #floralsyourway #challenge and I don't think I gave it justice because the stems seems longer.
