CHRISTMAS DAY
CHRISTMAS DAY 2013 ...MY FAMILY'S BACK YARD AND BRANDI THE FAMILY DOG.
I spent the whole day at my daughter's home with the family, and my son-in-laws family. They came from California, Oklahoma, & Michigan. My daughter is very lucky to have married into such a nice family. I think I have kind of ''adopted'' them too, and we spend a lot of holidays together. My granddaughter being the only granddaughter is highly favored by us all and of course gets a lot of love...not to mention Christmas gifts...but she knows the importance of family too and it's not just all about presents. A Happy Day of togetherness...
It was snowing a lot of the day, as it was when I took the photos...the strange ''moon/sun'' in the first pic was probably a reflection of a light somewhere..... I was outside when I took these and you can see some bright specks of Snowflakes.
This was the most visually beautiful Christmas in my memory....

POPPY SEED PODS...MIXED MEDIA
WATERCOLOR & INK on YUPO PAPER
This is my first attempt at WATERCOLOR on YUPO paper...using 3 Inks including the ELEGANT WRITER PEN, PITT PEN & BALLPOINT.
POPPY SEED PODS...are some of my favorite things...
Now for the bad news.....As much as I love ALCOHOL INK...I believe I have a severe nasal and respiratory allergy that has developed from it....I have been a little miserable with it for several days and I quit using the AI...and after 5 days it is beginning to subside. But at least I did discover Yupo Paper...so I am having fun trying watercolor and mixed media using it.
