My Favorite Things

I'm having trouble coming up with something as clever as everyone else does for their blog - I need to make more time, because it is so much fun to hear from others and share news, art, ideas, challenges, etc.  This January has started off with a terrible mind block as far as my artwork goes, so I am trying to work around that block and do some fun doodling on my gourds and slates and wood pieces.

So, here are a few items I've been working on, what do you think?  The birds have never had such nice homes, ready to move in, already designed and "landscaped".  I'm thinking of a series of items painted like this, maybe a slate, a canvas bag, or a pillow - what about terra cotta pots to match??  Hmmm!

In the meantime, one of the reasons I don't take the time to blog is that I am very busy being Nana!!  Our lovely little granddaughter has captured my heart and soul, and I can't help myself!
