Motivated Hopefully - Day 1

I've been thinking about blogging but haven't been doing it. I don't feel like wondering why but blogging sits on a ledge in the corner of my mind dangling her feet and wondering what to say. I got motivated today, I hope. Effy Wild from Artfully Wild Blog Along on Facebook started the April blogging challenge again this year. Yay! I'm glad I found it on April 5th and not the 25th. At least I have time to catch up.

I've been playing with a digital art program, Procreate on my ipad with the apple pencil.  Sometimes I think it's fun but it's also frustrating. There is so much to learn about layering, drawing and painting tools and colors. So I watch a Youtube video about how procreate works and practice. 

I think once I learn how procreate works more thoroughly, I will enjoy creating more.

For the Beauty of the Snow

This morning, March 12, 2017 we woke up to 2 inches of snow.  It was so pretty.  Later the sun came out and the snow glittered like jewels as the sun shone on it.  It was beautiful to the eyes but taking a picture doesn't show the beauty.  

Then the sun came out and I took this out our front window.  It is pretty but no the sparkles don't show.

Bernie took this one and the Carolina Blue Skies picture below.

The snow is melting fast and that's just the way we like it.  We aren't snowed in.  I just hope the spring flowers and the flowering trees won't get damaged by all this cold.
