Newest prayer flags- forgot to take a photo of one other which has a word on it that I used an alphabet stamp which my class can use in case they don't want to paint their own word on by hand.  And the other finished one has a "fringe" sewn on the bottom with beads and sea shells.

 Beginning washes to start with, then added more details.  I had taken Lisa Engelbrecht's class at a calligraphy workshop where we painted and lettered on canvas.

Wow, I finally got things to work with the posting.  I've been busy -the new kitchen is pretty much finished.  Still have several more boxes to unpack, but not the necessary things.  

The PRAYER FLAGS are for a show at the Lagrange Art League and something I've been wanting to present in a workshop- so that's coming up the first two Mondays in August at the Center in Palos.

So I was able to post again and even add a photo.  Hope it works again when I get time. It's the 4th day of 102 degree weather!  Hot hot hot.

New Kitchen Completed!

So, the new kitchen is finished but I'm still unpacking and finding places for everything.  You can see the french doors we put in that open into the living room.  It's so nice to be able to see out the front window now.  The kitchen before was in the middle of the house with no window.  We took out the wall between the kitchen and dining room so the window was in the dining room before. The hallway to the left still has some wallpaper repairs or removal to do.
