Blooming Tuesday!! Daisies Of Course

When I go for my 6am walk, I enjoy these wild Black-eyed Susies along the roadway. I finally took my camera with me so I could share them with you.

Look at the sandy soil and you will know why not much grows around here.

Close-up of the Susies.

You will probably see them on an ATC one of these days. :)


I used maskit to keep the daisies white and splashed around the background with pthalo blue and thalo green. I'm still working on doing white flowers.

Judy always uses watercolor pencils for her beautiful ATCS and I have wanted to try them.

I finally found mine and here is a sunflower that I painted.

Happy Blooming Tuesday everyone!

Teri, again, I have to say how wonderful your drawings/paintings are. I do love these white daisies very very much.
We saw daisies everywhere on our trip. Keep seeing them in fact. I must have taken hundreds of photos of them. Will share with you later.
