Paint The Town and Things I love to Photograph

Don't know if she's ready to Paint The Town or not.

I sketched her then added Prismacolor pencil, Pastels, and ink.
Thank you Kristin and Eva for hosting the Paint Party Friday for 
5 years. . . it is a whole lot of fun, learning and teaching.


I am also a photographer with a strictly photography blog.
Here are a few of my favorite things to photograph during my walks.

Alligator and reflections of the trees in the canal.
He's not there every day, but every day he is there, 
I capture him with my camera.
 I love the palm trees everywhere I look.
 The planes are a challenge.
Full moon and trees.
 Full moon and Palm.
 Squirrel posing.
 OK, I posed, where is breakfast.
Blessings,
Janet

The Art of the Doll - updated

The past 2 weeks I have Crocheted 3 dolls. Each one is different. It is my own pattern and it is an experiment.  I had one gal want a crocheted doll for her birthday.  I have a couple of people in the nursing homes and I wanted to give a gift that would be a friend, an angel, a companion. These are not children's dolls, they are for those who need someone to talk to and to live at those times that we need that moment and no one else is around.

I have 3 more ready to be put together and will put those up as soon as they are completed. I am still experimenting.  I have one more thought. . .a pups.

I love to crochet and to come up with different ideas.  I also knitted my own patterns. .  my yellow cottage and an owl in yellow yarn.


As promised all 6 dolls. . .ready for a Friend.
Thank you so much for allowing all of us artists a place to show our works Eva and Kristin at Paint Party Friday.
Blessings,
Janet
