Mosaic Monday

My creation

DSC01925Painting, painting, painting...



oday is Mosaic Monday, and Mary from Little Red House, is hosting this lovely day.






I am painting violets and hollyhocks this morning, and I am almost up to peonies on my list. I sent out the first batch of miniatures. I'll be putting on the finishing touches on Celeste's surprise and I will show you the reveal soon.

Garden Compositions

If you are one of my giveaway winners, I haven't forgotten you. I am carefully putting custom touches on each little painting to show you how much joy you bring to me every day.







The song for this post is Anyone At All from one of my favorite movies You've Got Mail. It's funny but when I first watched this movie, I thought it so unusual that someone could meet someone over the Internet.

Your paintings are so beautiful Karen, I can never see them enough. This morning I 'visited' Elyse at her lovely cottage and she was in awe over your painting of her border. I loved it too, you did an amazing job again and I am happy to see it here too!
Have a great start of the week!

My dear Karen,
I just got the painting in the mail and I am so speechless! What a beautiful work. You are so generous, I don't know what to say. All I know is that our Lord would say to me, "Just go and do the same." I am honored by your generosity; this is what it is all about. Mille bisous, Anita

The only thing better than my own hydrangeas outside my dining room window (complete with hummingbirds) are your paintings!
Beautiful....
