103rd completed canvas for this year! yippee, huh?

i had the MOST fabulous day .... 
my dearest art pal came over early this morning and stayed all day ..... 

we got some art chores done ... but we also did a TON of painting ..... 

the highlights: 

-i picked out pics to put on a disk to send off to be in an artsy book .... rah for that! .... the way that works? just when we all forget about it? that's when the book comes out ..... and it's all a happy surprise .... 

-i told allison that i had two girlfriends i was worried about ... both are taking care of very, very sick parents .... and that i wished she had a sweet guardian angel pendant .... so what did she do? made a guardian angel canvas .... and told me i'd have the pendants by friday ... how groovy toovy amazing is that .... an e inspired angel!! ..... 

-allison and i decided to write a book together ... we came up with about ten ideas .... none of them great ... but we talked and dreamed and wished .... we'll see if we can keep the momentum and actually do a book .... and if we don't? it sure was fun brainstorming all of the possibilities ...... 

- i painted poppies ... orange poppies ... just like my blog panel of helpful souls said i should! ... thanks darla ... thanks roberta

..... i had a happy day ..... what made your day happy?

Are the orange poppies

YES! Now I know for sure which of your paintings is my favorite. This One! Of course I think I say that about every new one you do. Lets face it, you are talented and I am fickle.
