I have been away from my blog for too long. I am joining a Postcard group called Love Notes, by Jennifer Belthoff. It will start on October 4, 2015. I'm excited to get back into my groups again. Lots of life has taken place in my world this past 3 years. I will be letting you know about it soon.

Journal 52

In January I joined another group online called "Journal 52". It's a group that creates a journal page a week for 52 weeks. I am trying to catch up as I started late. The host gives us a prompt 

on Sundays and than we post them either on FB or Flicker before the end of the week. 

There are no deadlines, which works well with my schedule. 

Here are the first 6. I am suppose to be on #11. I'm working on all of them

at the same time, and I'm loving it.

 "Up up and Away"

 "Somewhere a simple place"

 "You make me smile"

 "Building Character"

 "Abstract Art Interpretation"

"The Lost Art of the Love Letter"

If you go to Face Book or Flicker you can see them and 

their written explanations.

I thoroughly enjoyed this three weeks of Love Notes. I've enjoyed getting to

know Glenda. I loved her cards and the special care she took to make sure they

made their way to me in good care. And I especially liked the words I read

each week. Thank you Glenda.

A side note to Glenda..... I had stayed up late the night I finished the

last two cards and I left them out when I went to bed. I got up late the next 

morning and found the love note my great granddaughter had left for Glenda also. 

So I adjusted my original design and sent her love note also. Hope you enjoy.

GrittyJane's #40 Portrait Challenge

I've started in a new group online just a few weeks ago. I love it.

 It's my favorite subject matter. Portraits. People. Expressions.

 Motion. Feelings. I love it. (I said that, sorry)

Here is one of the pieces.

We have to create 40 portraits. We can do it in our time. 
No deadlines. My kind of group.

This is my Dad, Jack Adams. This is from a photo of him

on his discharge from the Navy after WWII.

Sun Rise and Spanish Moss

Barely peeking out

The sun releases day light

Warming up the morn.

A cool quiet breeze

Descends to the valley floor

A welcome respite

Bedtime

The comfort of home

Bedtime is my favorite

Safe and real fuzzy.

Day upon day after day.....

Hey little lady....whatcha doin? It's spring time.

Even if the rain is still trying to stay here.

Let's see if there is some way to work around the rain.

How about painting Grama Lynn? Or.....cutting?  Or

going for a walk? Or building houses with BIG boxes?

Well, painting is good.

And cutting is really fun!

But nothing beats naps!!

Oh no Grama Lynn!

The puddles are all ready!

And my boots are on!
