Monday's delivery...

GOOD MORNING...how are you all? It's a fresh -2 here this morning...and really beautiful out.All our sicknesses have cleared...yippy...and my body thanked me for my early morning run today...sometimes you just have to get out there!

So, this is the painting I was working on recently...and finished last week...but couldn't show you all until I had delivered it.

 The client is from the Meditteranean and loves the pretty feminine colours of lavender but asked for more yellows and less prominant mountains in the distance...

 Hey...that's what custom Artwork is all about...making the client happy!

ANd she was very happy...
I have 4 commissions this week to finish...and am volunteering at the girls School today...and Wednesday...it's a busy week, but a GREAT week...it's also Mr.R's Birthday on Wednesday! So I am prepping for that too.

These are their surprise lunch notes I added to our Girl's packs this morning :

Our 2 little princesses.

I have to get to work...but wanted to wish you all a wonderful Monday...tomorrow we're going to be talking about Advent Calendars here on our blog, I have many images to show you. SO... if you celebrate Christmas...is this part of your tradition?

HUGS to our bright and cheery Monday.

Tuscany...oh Tuscany...

Have you ever been to Tuscany? Have you ever  tasted the food from the Tuscan earth?

Have you ever driven over one hill and seen another painting just waiting for you through your windshield (windscreen)?

Smelt the grasses and lavender...seen the old farmhouses surrounded by Olive groves?

Spent the night at an Agriturismo where they have served wild bore for dinner?

Been to villages built on hillsides filled with history and Art...

If you haven't...please try and make it there once in your Life...if you have, then you would know the reason why I would JUMP at the chance to paint a Tuscan Scene...

I will be presenting this final sketch to the client...if accepted it will be painted on three canvases.

HAVE A WONDERFUL MONDAY!!!

HUGS
