Always Ready to Watercolor

I was going through some pictures to send to a friend and I came across this photo of my open purse during Watercolor/Journaling Class (Catherine Carey, Petoskey, MI).  I love that class and am looking forward to "signing up" for the same class this summer.  I always need to be refreshed--'Don't try to paint the "whole thing",  Keep it simple, Draw/paint what you see, etc'.   

Drawing AT Church

I went to a Ladies' Missionary Luncheon at our Church and this Pewter-looking Vase (?) was our centerpiece....full of Spring-y looking flowers and a sweet pink bow on the side.  So I got out my Gelly-roll Pen and my pack of watercolor postcard blanks and sketched this very quickly--then watercolored at home.
I ended up making a thinking-of-you note-card out of it, and then sent it to a friend who is very not well at the time (won't go into details).  I also printed this Bible Verse inside because it made me think of her when I read it today.  :-)    "The Lord your God is with you,  he is mighty to save.  He will take great delight in you, he will quiet you with his love, he will rejoice over you with singing."  Zephaniah 3:17 niv.
