Sylvan Fantasy



summer grass is turning golden
fruits ripen every where I look
we are entering the serious harvest season

two days ago
I noticed the days light is getting shorter

it feels good to sit down
sketch
and paint

another fungi floral fantasy piece

~
I hope you are enjoying your season
be it summer or winter

Scribble Picnic: ladybug


 she always wore a green dress
hoping the leaf color
would beckon ladybugs to her


 Remembering a ladybug that I saw last year......
I thought to try painting it from the photo

Scribble Picnic: fill in the blank


considered 
healer of her people
she
walks with her medicine staff
always listening for the truth
beneath the surface

Scribble Picnic: Fox



even 
fox
needs to touch her inner stillness
from time to time

~

Sharing with Michael's:
theme:
fox

a few nights ago
I woke to the screaming calls of two fox in the woods
their sounds are quite unique

somehow it inspired a feeling of all is right in the world

Summer Solstice


Summer Solstice:

for 6 months the light of each day grew longer
inspiring the growth of all
 in her land
flowers, trees, fungi, animals and insects

as we
enter the season of summer
fresh food will be plenty
new flowers will grow
nature thrives
days begin to shorten

in her land 
it is a time to be outside
exploring
and
sharing with loved ones 
finding awe in the glory of the world

~
 
Lovely Solstice to you

TIny Bear


Little bear and giant bolete are best of friends
Their guardian fairy hovers in magical form
A trinity of goodness

trail camera captured of a grizzly bear recently:

AC: birds



spring is such a wonderful time to watch birds


to see them collecting grass
lichens
spiderwebs 
to make nests


enchanted by their songs and calls


we get to wonder about their new born
hey, that is not a bird ;-)


I made a little book for spring birds
and 
their eggs
:
new life

Thank you Eric for hosting our AC
with the theme:
birds
