One of V’s Christmas gifts was a pour paint set. The paint came premixed in tubes, 32 colors, I think. And then she had a set of 8″x8″ canvasses. The size is perfect for doing at home with minimal messes.…
Flowers Part 2
This is the same bouquet as last week. I watched it all week, making sure it had all the water it needed. The roses wilted and dried up, their colors more saturated. Meanwhile the leaves didn’t change at all. I…
