crisp, clean laundry on the line . . . wooden clothespins once used by grandma . . . the whippy sound of towels dancing in the wind . . . burying my face in the scent of sunshine . . . sleeping on heavenly fresh sheets . . . all simple pleasures gone by but never forgotten.
i don't know when i've enjoyed creating a mixed media collage more than this one. she captured my heart, awakened my creative spirit and has me yearning for more. thanks to brandi for suggesting dot eyes and willow for voting for a demure look. i think i've captured a hint of both in her sweet little face. i've just listed "simple pleasures" in my etsy shop. i know someone will want to give her a good home.
i have 3 canvasses laid out ready for the background. did i mention i'm having fun? take care all!!

Julie, I love "simple pleasures"!! There is always something special about clothes on the line; it makes me feel at home (silly I know).
I still use my cloths line all the time, and love it.
Thanks for stopping by my blog and to answer you question, I don't keep up I just muddle through and do as much as I can. You always do a great job of posting every day and I like checking to see what you have been up to.
She turned out great, Julie! When will she be for sale?
that's a perfect summertime picture, I like the blue background, clean and crisp.
I love her and all that she loves about the simple life.
The face is very sweet.
By the way, I've something for you at my place (in the nature of an award). Stop by if you care to.
Also, my book club chose Olive Kitteridge as the September book. I'm really looking forward to reading it.
She is so sweet! Another beautifully soft and perfect little cute art!

Love it! The little pocket you added to her dress is so cute! It's so fun to watch this series come to life.
