Poppies Gone Wild

Never having painted Poppies , This was a challenge . I am not comfortable with Reds or Oranges as dominant. My friends kid me a lot about it
I held my breath and nose and plunged in .
As Arnold Lowery always says " If you never try anything different, you will always do the same thing " !
Thank you Arnold for your words of wisdom .

Working Boats Seattle

This is from a time when I was into all and just Boats .

After a Fabulous trip to Seattle, one of two , which I loved , because everything is near the water. We took a trip down the waterways and it was Heaven to see Real Macho type Ships rather than the puny cute- named Yachts on 5 Mile River . Okay , I like it them too!
