Sacred Water

I lived in India in the late 1960's. I enjoyed the jewel toned colors in the sari's, flowers and birds. I also remember the many rituals and celebrations of life.

Observing My Visual Field

1. Villa Oliva, Lucca Italy- An enchanting place to paint and please check out the guest cottage!

2. Another Villa in Spello (Umbria) Peaceful place to paint and learn about ancient history.
3. An old olive grove in the mountains above Lucca. Fresh country air, great Italian LIGHT!
Painted while standing on the medieval wall that is 2 miles long and surrounds the city.

I sell boxed sets of  fine art cards. If interested please leave a comment on my blog!

I am working on two watercolors today and enjoying my choice of colors. I love mixing rose madder with auroulian yellow and then glazing a very pale alizarin crimson over the entire area when dry.

Love and LIGHT,

Faern

How is everyone doing? I have just enough to pay the rent. Taxes are paid and so far up to date on paying bills. I lowered my Health Insurance by half the amount. Has anyone spent some time really examining your credit card statement (I now have only one card) I found many items that were charging me a monthly fee. I'm in the skin care business and I will sometimes try samples of new products. Free for one month but here's the catch in small print. EMPTY JARS must be returned or You'll be charged. So I've been calling companies and having chats to end these extra amounts of money on my card. 

I have an interview at a Sports Clinic. Not sure how an Esthetician will fit in a Sports medicine clinic but I do Lymphatic Spa treatments. Humans are so adaptable. I am getting to see us all doing the hussle.  

Hope springs eternal etc,
