A fortune cookie, butterfly dish and a dash of painting mayhem...

daily ode no. 14

Your fortune reads "There is a prospect of a thrilling time ahead for you."

Air Five: "The motion of High-Fiving given by two people from a distance"

1-the sound of ginger ale on ice and the clinking of ice swishing around the glass

2-lovely thrifted ceramic butterfly dish from a wonderful vintage seller with a few dings and scrapes around the edges.

3-thinking of the stories behind the dings and scrapes and places it's been.

4-fun fortune cookie messages, even especially the random ones

5-the glorious color combination of blue and orange

daily ode no. 12 ... watercolor experiments

I usually use acrylic and gouache among other supplies. Not so much watercolor. It's been collecting dust in my studio remembering the good ol' days in high school and college when I used the medium primarily. I thought I'd add it back into my work. Playing with some patterns and some quickly painted butterflies.
