Playing with Watercolors

So, here we are at the beginning of a new week already.

Where does the time go?  

Last week I spent a relaxing time at home with Russell 

during his spring break from work.  

I did a little painting with watercolors.

Pretty basic stuff I'm doing...I'm still trying to figure it all out. 

I love the way the colors work on the paper using the 

wet on wet technique.  

I'm also feeling inspired having things around me that I love. 

This is some pottery my father-in-law made, 

that I use to hold some of my watercolor brushes, 

 graphite pencils and Micron pens. 

Of course, I still can't put down the crochet hook either. 

I've made a few simple dishcloths.

I love using these in the kitchen.

100% cotton yarn is nice to work with. 

There's been a lot of just kicking back, reading and relaxing 

around here too.

 Now it's time to get back into the "groove" and 

get some laundry and house cleaning done! 

What have you been up to?
