Stone Cloud

I went away this week

Up the North Fork to Polebridge

stayed in a cabin named Stone Cloud

the name of this beautiful and wild land inspired this painting:

while in Stone Cloud

the mountains became her wings

~

today is the last day of February

which is the last day of Alaya's 29 Faces!

Thank you so much for hosting this inspiring event!

~

and yes

the stones around here can be quite colorful:

but the land was not summer 

it is still very much winter here:

Drawing Faces....

last week i created a painting

and the gal had flowers for hair

seems tonight I needed to draw more flowers...

I had glued tissue paper down in a lavender color,

later

looking at the page I saw this woman in the edges of the torn tissue

'she rose from the edges'
