Happy Hippo

A happy Hippo going for a refreshing dip on a sunny day. 

I don't usually paint animals but I could not resist this cute face and had to give it a go in watercolor.

I am sharing this with Daily Paintworks and Paint Party Friday.

A Sea of Thanks

Some of my new stamps.

These fish are swimming in a sea of thanks.  

I tore wavy strips of some of my Gelli Plate paper and glued them onto the card fronts.

Stamped some of the Art Journey fish and seashells and added some script and thread.

  

I was lucky enough to win this little jackpot from Godelieve Tijsken´s

stamping blog.  She included one of her handcarved flower stamps for me too.

Thanks a lot Godelieve!!

Sunday Sketches III

Alpine Shores

A quick watercolor sketch of an alpine lake in Germany.

We don´t have an ocean but the view of the Alps

from one of our many lakes is always a sight to behold.

You should take your next vacation here,,,,don´t you think?
