At 3:03 am Tom handed me my birthday present and card. The note on the card reads “Because you lose so much, I don’t want you to get lost. Happy 61st”. Inside the bag I found a compass and a flashlight. Perfect! Now, I may not know where I am, but I know what direction I’m facing when I paint the morning, afternoon or evening sky!
Compass and Flashlight
Playing the Color Scheme Game, I used an Analogous with Split Complement Color Scheme, my dominant color is yellow-orange.

I love anything about color and think your paintings are beautiful, so I nominated you and your blog for the Very Inspiring Blogger Award. (I posted the requirements on my blog just in case you feel like going for it – http://www.oilpastelsbymary.com)
Thank you Mary. I’m pleased that you are inspired by my blog and I’m honored to be nominated for the award.
I love mixing and blending colors, and was in love with your blog as soon as I saw the main theme – wonderful!
