Art, Poetry and Photograph Monday



Watercolor in progress for Creative Every Day


The sun shone on A Creative Harbor today in MA.
 After a weekend of blizzard conditions needless to say we were all elated and proceeded to venture out and take some photos that I will show later in the week. Very few sidewalks were clear so ArtMuse Dog and I had a very brief 'photo walk'. Then went to my brothers for conversation and a hot cup of tea and to see the 'valentines kids.' They were busy with Papa creating all kinds of colorful creations. I even got a valentine hand made necklace.

  8. The kids look as if they are having so much fun making their valentines. I would think that Art Muse Dog would have needed some stilts to go on a walk after that snow! Have a wonderful week!

  12. The children look content in staying in where it is warm and creating their valentines. I don't envy you with all that snow - don't want it here. :) Your sweet furbaby has the sweetest face.

  14. I like the linear patterns in your MoM image - the horizontals of the roof against and the curvy branches in the front. The touches of orange look good against the blue/greys too.
    Thank you for sharing on Mandarin Orange Monday:)
