In full bloom

Just a few photos of my roses and my one and only Iris.. I have been spending so much time outside lately I though I would share. Everything is in full bloom and some are on their second round and ready to bloom again. See that small raised planter in the last photo, well, this past week I just finished building it, planted some Statis and lavender.. Got up this morining only to find that the dear rabbits have taken all the tops of the lavenders off as well as the statis.. They must have been ~trying it out~ because they did not eat it... All the blooms were laying in the planter... I hope this means it is just not their ~ cup of tea~ as it were..

In the backyard I have a rosemary bush that I am attempting to sculpt it into the shape of a (big) rabbit.. (no photo yet) I cannot say that at this time it looks like a rabbit, but I am working on it... Wishing all a safe and happy weekend.

Blessings,

Past work.. Tillie the Owl and friends

This little guy above has the same look I get sometimes when I am in deep thought. heee...Tillie the owl (at the top) would like you to meet some of her friends...

I have been working on a few outside projects lately and have not spent much time in my studio.. Trying to finish outside before the heat hits.. I thought I would share some photos of my miniature sculptures from long ago.. With the exception of Tillie, they were all about 2" tall. As you can see I went a little nuts with the primates.. These are only a few. They were created several years ago and are all sold.. Some quite silly, but I had alot of fun creating. I hope you enjoyed viewing. Thank you for visiting and have a good week. Blessings to all. Penny

Please meet * Kiwi * the Koala and baby joey

Welcome... Please meet *Kiwi* and her baby joey... They have been sculpted with a Cernit mix. I used a light grey and white wool for the fur, which was hand applied, tiny pieces at a time.

Kiwi sits a mere 2 3/4" tall... I really enjoyed this one, I hope she gives you a smile.

If you would like to visit her auction click my ebay on side bar. Thank you so much for taking time to visit..

Pencil sketches by my granddaughter Brittany

My granddaughter Brit was able to get a few days off work this week and came out to spend some time with me. She always has sketch book in hand.. When she was little and would come to visit with Nana, (me) my daughter would make sure she had packed her sketchbook… We would * draw to the music * as she would say… Beethoven, Chopin and the Andrew sisters… I would like to share some of my favorite pencil sketches that she has done over the past few years with you.. She does not sell her original works, instead offers quality prints.
Brit is in college now, an Art History Major and is the light of her Mothers life. To me, she is a true blessing from God. Thank you for walking down memory lane with me.. I hope you enjoy viewing her work.

Blessings, Penny
