Roses and Lexy on Green

 It's been lovely around here.

I've had time to fashion this lovely rose headpiece inspired by my new art acquisition.

A pastel print on canvas by artist Julie Hyndman.

 

 

 I've used my lip brush to execute 30 minute lips and

sped down to Stewart MacFarlane's Pop-Up Show on the weekend.
If you have been paying attention, you will remember that
Stewart is a well-known Australian artist who launched his book with Flora in the audience.

 

 If you are okay with the nude in Art, you will appreciate Lexy.

Lexy on Green (2014)

Here's Lexy being walked home from point-of-purchase.

I've also been to Roma Street Parklands

In the Brisbane city precinct.

There's a fair bit on offer.

A picnic would top it off.

Topiary national emblems.

A sort of Christmas tree made of marigolds.

Lots of lovely flower beds.

A waterfall.

I'm on holidays from the day-job.

So I had time to notice the small stuff.

The tonal gradation on this bloom really got me.

 I've also noticed that Mui Mui are incorporating a granny-square bodice.

Who would have thought?

I've started drawing the festive window decorations for a little French restaurant.

Montrachet.

 I've got six large sheets of paper drawn with dogs with a bunting that says,

Season's Greetings.

How are your Season's Greetings going?

My gift is under the tree, and Mr Fascinata has just remarked that his isn't.

I better get cracking.



I'll get back to you when the windows are covered.
