#Art Gallery #Handmade #Folksy

We haven`t had art for a while, so I think it`s time we did. I decided this because I saw some beautifully embroidered ACEO`s on the daily listing thread on Folksy. That led me to look at the daily art and ACEO`s threads and so it went on. There are some wonderful new artists appearing as well as old favourites. Always interesting to see if the style has changed or if the artists have moved on to a different medium. Variety and change is what makes life interesting after all.
I was busy doing some finishing, now a variety of things are just needing buttons. I will be doing those today, I hope. I`ll just have to see what happens as I am working on my website too. I`d also like to get a bit more painting done, I really miss it. NEED more hours in the day! So I am showing paintings done previously.
As usual, to see a bigger picture or a description, just click on the item to view it in the shop.
ENJOY!!!

My lovely grandaughter visited for a while
we chatted and laughed, she makes me smile.
She came to do the ironing for me
cos she`s the ironing fairy you see.
Once it was done we chatted a time
I told her I`d put her in my rhyme.
I`ll be famous at last was her cry
giggling away as she batted her eye.
It`s great to spend time together
even if it was due to the weather.
Did you have rain too yesterday?
we had some then it went away.
The wind though was so very strong
more like march, it seemed very wrong.
The ground is dry, the grass going brown
it`s enough to make a gardener frown.
Why can`t it rain each and every night
then all would be green, a wonderful sight.
We need the rain but hope for sun
we get what nature decides she will run!!
