AND WHAT DO I SEE?


TOUCH OF RED
4 1/2" x 4 1/2" pastel, glass, archival white matte & 8" square gold leaf frame
SOLD - PRIVATE COLLECTOR

I think I'll still hang around awhile in Catalina since it was so fun to get away and had caught myself daydreaming of my trip the last few days.

Notice the sunny sky and white clouds? Perfect weather to be traipsing around the countryside. Of course I wasn't exactly skipping while I was lugging all my gear. Who would think pastels are so heavy to carry? And can't forget the paper towels! A whole roll none the less, even though my face and hands were smudged for most of the day. Some day I'll learn to be a lady, but till then....

I did spy prickly pear and a wonderful tiny patch of red flowers nestled underneath a tree - such a grand splash of red!
