Faerie Forest
There are many lovely treasures among the woodland trails this time of year, moss engulfed branches, wild morel mushroom, hidden faeries teasing us along the way. Spending time with one you love wandering the woods is indeed magical!
Sharing today with Carol at A Creative Harbor on Magical Monday.
Spring Trees
Last week my husband and I took a drive up the mountain (toward Mt Baker) on a hunt for morel mushrooms. (we found some) The early spring trees along the way were just budding out, and the light green against the fairly bare looking branches was stunning.
I’ve been playing with ideas to transfer my impression onto a canvas. This is what I’ve finished thus far. The colors are slightly off in my photos, but you get the idea.
HuMp DaY Haiku – first bloom
I started doing Hump Day Haiku with Carla Sonheim’s Silly classes… and decided as a challenge for myself, I’d continue. In this process, I have found that creating a haiku (non rhyming poem with 5 – 7 – 5 syllables per line) feeds my soul.

Cheryl’s Writing on the Wall
grateful heart
This is not all all how I first envisioned this painting. My first thought was two hearts with a haiku, however I just couldn’t get the colors or placement to “feel right”. After setting it aside for a few days, I came across this image and it just fell into place.
I’m including an Earth Day haiku today, just because I can!
