Hunting…


I found the prompts for this week (paint, green, eyelashes, shapes and clouds) particularly challenging, but I managed to come up with something for every one.

PAINT:  My medium has always been fabric and thread.  In my case, these are paint.


GREEN:  Until yesterday we have had very little rain this summer so it is a wonder that I found this very green field to photograph.



EYELASHES:  My son Evan was kind enough to let me take a few pics of his eyes to use for the eyelashes prompt.


SHAPES:  Since I was a kid, I’ve liked working jigsaw puzzles.  While I had cats, I couldn’t manage to keep them from stealing and hiding pieces so I gave it up for a while.  Remind me some day to tell you about the LEGO castle my son and I built together that my cat Asta took apart piece by piece.  Asta was also famous for carrying around Barbie doll heads and dropping them where ever she thought they would create the most drama.  Now that I don’t have any cats, I can work puzzles in peace and if there were still Barbies around here, they would be safe.  I’d rather have cats actually.



CLOUDS:  We had some pretty gorgeous and dramatic clouds drifting in and out of New England this week.
