Gardening

Good Monday Morning Everyone!

Spring has come to my part of the world and I spent the whole weekend at the garden nurseries and in my garden!

It felt so good to get my hands in the dirt, rework my planters and plant some new flowers.🌺

My lilies are poking out of the ground and I only lost a few. Although  we had a cold and snowy February it looks like most of the gardens will survive.

Gardening feeds my soul and after a dreary winter it was very hungry for the newest of the spring season.😊

I will be working on revamping my website in the next few months so I may not be posting as often. It will be exciting to have a new look and new features. I look forward to sharing it with you❤️

Have a wonderful week!

Peace and Love,

Veronica

Good Monday Morning All!

It’s February and I’m trying not to get the winter blues! ~The days are getting longer and soon I will be planting my sweet peas!

The winter white of the snowfall is making my world a picturesque wonderland. Luckily we don’t get much snow and it only lasts a few days on average. A snow day would be nice.

I start back up on rewrites for the second in my book series of American Historical Fiction. I say start back because about ten days ago I was writing along, minding my own business when silver streaks shot out from the side of my vision. Blood splashed across my site. I thought I was having a brain hemorrhage!

Long story short and many tests later, it wasn’t anything to worry about, just a bit of eye tissue coming loose, tearing a vein… and I will heal. Trying to see clearly out of that eye until then is annoying.

I know stress can cause a bunch of weird stuff in that complicated universe we call our bodies. So, I slowed down and changed a few things in my life and fingers crossed I can stick to it. Feels good to push the reset button!

Wishing you all a great week and be carefuIMG_3375l of that stress!

Love and Peace,

Veronica

Good Monday Morning!

Watercolor brush pens! I’ve been wanting to try this technique for a while and for Christmas my very talented artist daughter gave me a set.

A purist at heart, I didn’t think these would satisfy me but I love them!

I have the Arteza 48 set. Here are some of the drawings I did with the help of Rachel Reinert’s drawing book- In Bloom. I used the brush pens to paint them in. They blend really well especially with the water pen the set comes with. Really fun!
