More Watercolor Flowers


 This first photo is of my portion of the Saturday class' cooperative art.
You can see what I've done lately by comparing it with the earlier photo.



Gross frustration, disappointment, and anger at being scammed
by a contractor who took my money (lots of it), leftover supplies, 
and walked off the job recently without finishing the project led to hours
of painting watercolor flowers to relieve the stress. These have been
made into greetings cards. Some have already been sent out and
I didn't get their pictures taken. This is my PPF entry for this week.

  10. I am so sorry to hear about your terrible contractor experience, so remember Proverbs 10:9, "Whoever walks in integrity walks securely, but he who makes his ways crooked will be found out." However, I am glad your purity of heart allowed you to produce such beautiful artwork. May the peace of the Lord be with you, my friend.
