proud of my Mom

This past weekend we installed my showing at the library. My parents met us and one thing that occurred is Mom gave the girls the sun dresses that she made for them. I am very proud of Mom. I think these dresses are good enough for a boutique.

I noticed after I uploaded these that some of the photos seem a little gray - I am a bit paranoid about blown highlights in my work and over-compensated as converting these with the contrasts and tones in them was an absolute bugger.

no, I don't know what she is doing or why


picking crabapple blossoms





ring around the rosy


playing at being lions



it was very windy





climbing trees



watching the clouds rush by


princess games


the girls play circle time.

  2. Those are very cute! Are they terry cloth? Thus must be really comfy for warm weather. It's nice that they are both different, too.

    Oh my--those dresses are beautiful and the photos are precious. (And the painting is almost done--hubby says it is the best one yet.)

  6. The dresses are beautiful and so are the girls. The pictures are awesome. A couple of them look like collages to me (but then, what doesn't?) :)

    You've really been writing a lot! I read a couple and am going to back and read more. Really excellent. I never knew those particular lyrics to Pop Goes the Weasel.

    I'm so sorry about your sister's baby. Your family has had more than its share of pain lately.

    If you need to talk, you know the number. :)

  7. Ohhhhh and congrats on hanging your pictures! (I knew I'd forget something. Reading retention was never my strongsuit.)

  8. Cute dresses! That forth picture from the top (first in color) - Wow, the green, green grass and the pastels of the dresses - everything just pops! Congrats to your mom; she did a great job! :o)

    And congratulations on your show! Hope it goes well.
