Permission to Play
This afternoon I decided to make a card to thank my sister for the lovely bouquet she sent for my birthday. It was so much fun, I tried it a second and third time. Then I decided it was okay to use up all my blank watercolor cards and just play with all the fall colors in the yard before it's too late. I bundled up, poured a glass of wine and went out on the deck and painted 5 more cards with all the luscious pigments of autumn. It was exhilarating. I ran out of daylight before I ran out of blank cards. These were all done with color first, then ink. I think I'll start sending a card a day to my mom.
