The grands are visiting and life is mighty busy --- incredible how a 4 and 3 year old can take so much energy!!! LOL

We're off today for a trip to a Museum -- should be fun!

Still working on landscapes ... I found this reference photo of a thatched English cottage and thought I'd give it a try with a bit of ink as well as watercolor ...

Oh the old thatched house is so neat and the trees and especially the shadows. I love the soft touch you've given it. Have fun at the museum. Whew, makes me tired just thinking about it!
Hugs,
