Monkey in the Middle Monday...


As promised, today's post will share some photos of pieces I am "in the middle" of completing....

Actually, I wouldn't even say I'm to the middle on most of them. Good intentions, you know what they say....I seem to have a knack (good or bad?Depends on the day you ask me) for floating several projects at once....


But I can give you a glimpse of the color pallette that is inspiring me lately....




And here are three things I am "monkey in the middle" on this week.....Think I can finish them all?

Tags...I'm always working on tags....they are my "keep your hands busy, specially during commercials" diversion during evening TV....

And I'm ready for Easter, can't you tell?

This is a canvas that I started (just barely!) over the weekend....the plan is for it to be a prim inspired landscape scene using these fresh colors....a little more whimsical than my usual folk art flavor, but I am following my muse lately, and the muse is cranky and she is SCREAMING "lighten up!"

Last this week, is the next in my continuing seasonal rusty bell series....

A pretty obvious hint: this will be my Easter bell and that sweet little girl with her bluebird friends is the inspiration....

So there you go! I plan to do this every Monday, and I would love to see your WIPS....for some reason I find it SO interesting to get a glimpse at the process behind the finished product....

I hope you weren't too bored....

Happy "Monkey in the Middle" Monday, y'all....
