Intermission

Dear Friends, with this painting in progress (I adore the colors in this one!), I am going on official blog break. 
We have family arriving in less than three weeks and then we'll be traveling until a couple of days before Christmas.
That means that in the next three weeks (which include a quick trip to Atlanta), we have to finish ALL of our Thanksgiving AND Christmas preparations. 
Plus, Daniel leaves for three months to teach in France right after Christmas so we have to get him fully prepped for that as well. (No worries, I'll be joining him later in the spring for a nice Europe vacation!)
I may pop in to read your posts from time to time, or for the occasional post myself if something really wonderful is happening, but otherwise I wish you a beautiful Thanksgiving, Happy Holidays and a Happy New Year!

See you for sure again in 2014, and before then if time allows!

I appreciate all of you and will be thinking of you often and fondly!! Whishing you much joy, happiness and peace in the upcoming season...

    Hi, I hope you are having a nice break from blogging and a lovely time.

    I am wondering if it would be alright with you if I used one of your photos for a reference for a painting. I really like the photo.
    I am sorry that I didn't write down which post you had it in; but the photo is : IMG 7970, it is of an orange butterfly on a pink coneflower?(daisy type flower).
    Naturally I will not use it for reference if you would rather I not. Please let me know when you have a minute. Thank you.
