Girl in a Sun Hat

Sorry this has been so long forthcoming. Too much going on and interfering with my art!
This is from a photo that was taken when I was 16. The original pic is posted on my FB. This is not done yet, just the basics are in. I was on a hill up near the shooting range off Redwood Rd in CV @ the park there.

Swirling Eddies - Rachel

I just loved the way the sunlight was radiating from the center of this Morning Glory... how appropos a name! What a glorious bloom!

Water Web

This was just too neat to pass up. The kids and I were up in Shasta goofing around and we found this neat little area with a running creek. This spider web had no spider that we could see, but the web looked really cool with the water running under it

Roar! - Rachel

We spent today at one of my favorite places, Adventure Playground, where the kids build, paint, create and have fun. I loved this find... looking into the maw of the ferocious beast and finding his lunch.

Brown Stalks - Rachel

There is simply something that appeals to me in this brown stalk. It reminds me a bit of a firework burst. What do you think?
