dreaming of building sandcastles in the air...


"If you have built castle in the air,
your work need not be lost;
that is where they should be,
Now put the foundations under them."   Thoreau

...what a special thought...

Junelle gave us the "beachy" theme this week.

This summer has not included a trip to the shore for me...
but I have been re-visiting special trips in memory...


I can almost hear the waves and taste that salty breeze...

Visions of blooms are still appearing in my artwork...

from an outdoor cafe with blossoms spilling from pots along the walls...


to a pick-up truck serving as a mobile flower market...
what fun~



One of these lovelies could be plucked and planted
inside this blue jar... happy place~


"Come forth into the light of things,
let nature be your teacher..."
Wordsworth


Enjoy these last few days of July...
Let your senses be immersed in the delights of summer...
Follow the light~
