and I’m finally getting back into my painting. Â With a full time job in social media for a major central FL company, my days are busy and free time is a luxury at this point. Â The house is settled in, more or less; We’re in a groove in terms of pool, lawn and home upkeep; We’ve even got a well-stocked freezer, filled with Grouper, Tuna and Snapper thanks to my son who visited and had a successful fishing trip on the gulf side. Â So, there’s little else to do but paint!
And it’s hit me: it’s time to try Flamingoes! Â I can see them now, all aqua backgrounds, cheery red/salmon/pink/crimson and white bodies with graceful long necks and impossibly skinny legs and balls for knees! Â How fun! Â I was so motivated I already slapped the backgrounds on about five canvases of varying sizes. Â The plan is, to paint and hang these (hopefully) adorable works throughout this, our “Florida” guest room.
The room was a big renovation project we tackled last month. Â Long story short, the homeowner’s son was a heavy smoker and preferred dark drab colors. Â Not us, that’s for sure, and after painting, carpet cleaning and furniture reworking, we love the end result.

So, stay tuned for a few froliking and fun Flamingoes!
