Well...yes I am running very late in putting this up, and I probably wouldn't have done one had I not gotten up just before 5 to make this painting for a friend's birthday to give to her today...
I am so happy with this one, I am a huge fan of black..lol...and I love the colours I made.
Now, for something random...my family, have been trying very hard to eliminate additives from our diet...we are very impressed with the home made pizzas we have been making...I just use my breadmaker and toss in a few ingredients, leave it overnight and make it the following night...these ones are vegetaian, we have this with a lovely Greek salad...yummo!!!
Back o SOC...thanks so much Kristin for all the effort and support as well over this event...you know I think you are wonderful!!!
Until next time
Lots of it

Summer of Colour Week 4
Hi there...
Here is my summer of colour entry for this week...Gee...only one more artwork to go...
This one has been in my moleskine for about a year now, so I thought I'd use the colours for this week to inspire me to finish it...
I am in love with instagram....lol...and it looks so much better edited...lol...wish I could get the vivd colour in my paints...
here is the instagram photo...it says...I love you more than the blades of grass, I love you more than the sand on the beach, I love you more than the stars in the sky, I love you all the way to the moon and back again, times infinity...
I used to say many of these to the kids when they were little, though all the way to the moon and back I did not say...but I have heard this before and loved it and thought it would go perfect with everything else I used to say...lol...here are my 6 kiddos in love you times infinity...
The first is instagram, the second is a very washed out photo of the whole page and the last is just a page I thought I'd share, many of the colours in this weeks prompt...
Thanks again Kristin over at Twinkle Twinkle and thanks for all the lovely comments....looking forward to visiting everyone's blogs too...
until next time
lots of it
