I had heard that folks were able to see through a picture, but not with a naked eye. We could see them very well! We were very fortunate.

Level 11 solar storm!!! What a beautiful world God created. I haven't seen any northern lights since I was four or five, and it was nowhere near as vibrant. In 2003, a solar storm of the same level wrecked several power grid functions in Africa. :O

So I've been told! I do enjoy the lakeside, but I've never been one for warmth, sun, or salt. I prefer the freshness of the Great Lakes, and the cool shadows in the valleys where I live.

Edited to *mission trip. Hah, my half asleep brain. It was to Puerto Rico when she was fourteen. Really cool. She brought back a lemon in her water.

I have never had the opportunity. Older sister saw the ocean once on a mission trip, and that's all I've heard of it. I'd love to go to Chincoteague and Assateague Islands sometime, maybe in the future my Stranger will indulge me in that. :D

Welcome, I'm glad you decided to hop in!

Thank you! I've never actually been to a real beach. Lake beaches, sure, but I've never seen the ocean.

Thank you!

Hey! How has everyone's week been going? My lovely Stranger is going to be embarking tomorrow, and then just two days until he's here! It feels like time is absolutely dragging. I've been really busy with sewing projects. I made a potholder yesterday, and it turned out so cute. I have to further...

Thanks for the follow!

Nine days until my Stranger is here for the summer, I'm so excited! Unfortunately he won't be able to bring the manual truck like he planned. The main vehicle needed some fixing, and in the interest of saving money, he opted to not rent a trailer to haul the truck. Oh well. Plenty of time to...

I have done some things, but I'm not sure where they got off to, and those pictures are long lost, lol. That's a great idea! I might use that technique. Yes, he does many thing "in bachelor fashion", and it's funny to me whenever something like that pops up. He had a pair of "house moccasins"...

I like that! The layout is well designed.

It's a water based paint that works in between acrylic and watercolor. You can add water, and it works like watercolor but it's a lot more vibrant and more opaque, and goes a looong way. Without water, it goes on like acrylic. If you make a mistake with acrylic, you can quickly wipe most of it...

Thank you!

That last one I'm pretty sure was watercolor pencils. The words are paint marker.

"Ocean" is from a Pictoword project. It was done with acrylic paint. It was displayed in the county art show last week! One of folks' favorite things about it are the tiny footprints going in and out of the waves in the sand. This is something on my wall. Also acrylic. It was very fun to paint...

How lovely! Tutorials are definitely helpful in developing your skills. I should do more of them, really. I'll see if I can find anything decent. I'm doing art classes at a private school, so I can find some pictures of those. Have you tried gouache?

Ooh, do you have any paintings you could share with us? I am also an artsy person, but I have little time to have fun with it, and too many options to settle on one medium. :P

Hi, welcome!! Please, feel free to tell us a bit about yourself so we can get to know you!
