Danielle took some time to experiment with watercolors while she was recovering from her tonsillectomy surgery and she did a fabulous job on these two pictures. I think the boat/sunset picture is my favorite, but I really like the way she left some white down the middle of the water in the beach picture to show a reflection on the water. I might be biased, but I think that shows an artistic maturity to not feel the need to have to paint the entire picture....she knew just what she wanted to leave white for the effect she was going for. BRAVO, Danielle!
Here are a couple close ups....I know you want to see the detail :-)
Brad and I took some time this weekend to finish a couple home projects. We have been working on creating a homework/craft/"get out of the bathroom and let your sisters in!" area for the girls and finally put some desk grommets in the counter top, so the girls can plug in computers or hair dryers/curling irons/straighteners...what evs :-) (That is an attempt at slang...haha!) I am happy it is finished...hope it will be utilized, so my dining room table will not always be full of clutter....A GIRL CAN DREAM.
And, last...but certainly not least...I can finally use my....drum roll please....FIREPLACE...and I have a few times even though it was just fixed yesterday and I LOVE IT! It hadn't worked since we moved in and then we changed our home over from propane to natural gas and we had to replace all the parts to the fireplace...blah blah...long story...not so interesting...ANYWAY...happy Heather! Now, I will have to find another good book so I can read it by my fire. FIRE...FIRE...(Kenna said I had to add that)...Kenna and I are Pyros.
