Carnations


Carnations

It took six trips from the car to the house to unload my car from all the workshops and luncheons items that I carried to work this week -- and another 90 minutes to return everything to their 'places' .... whew. It's been a whirlwind ... good, busy ... but a tad overwhelming! LOL

These are some practice carnations I've been playing with trying to simplify my flowers and give them a more painterly look.... fun.

The weather's turned cold and our temps today will make staying indoors a luxury ...

Hope your day is terrific!
