There is Sunshine in my Soul Today!

Oh those delightful sunflowers!  I've painted them in watercolor, on a textured board for the backsplash in my kitchen and now on silk.  I've had silk paints that I brought back from France 20 years ago.  Yesterday I got the box out of the garage that held all of the silk painting supplies.  I read my French tutorial booklet and watched videos on YouTube and then launched into the project.  It's not perfect - but I'm happy with how it is turning out.  I also want to continue painting on silk - it is such fun!

    I think it's an exquisite theme...Will let you know about Tavys' preference on the two pics you sent me. Would love to learn more about the silk painting & maybe do a lesson or two while you guys are here if you think you can teach me anything? Let me know about the need for a car asap as I can probably work something out with one of our vehicles if it would be helpful. :)
