Some of you joined Liz @ Rose Vignettes for her Fresh Cut Friday party featuring asters. You can read my post about asters here. I also wanted to share two more asters with you. The first one is the September card from Ling Chang's 2011 calendar. I love Ling's art, and every year I order her calendars for the special people in my life for Christmas. My grandmother says that it is her favorite Christmas present every year! Please visit Ling Chang's website here. Her small desktop calendars make wonderful teacher gifts. I usually order her new calendars in early October, so mark your calendars!
I also bought one of her journals. It is filled with her beautiful artwork with scenes from Scotland.
The other asters I wanted to share are in a painting that I painted several years ago. I do not usually paint abstracts, so take a good look because you won't see many of my paintings looking like this!
School was delayed for two hours today due to power outages, so I my whole day has been thrown off balance. What have you been doing today?
Until next time...
Blessings!

Bellissimo il quadro-calendario!Baci,Rosetta
ReplyDeleteErrands, housecleaning and comfort food is the order of the day here! Except for the errands in the rain, it's all good!
ReplyDeleteHi Ricki Jill - you certainly have a lot of treasures my dear. Why, your own artwork alone will be treasured by someone someday!
ReplyDeleteI'll be selling some of these bottles in my Etsy shop too, so check out my shop online occasionally when you get a chance. Happy week sweetie!

I went to her website! Her art is beautiful! I so want to buy a pretty journal sometime soon! I didn't see a link for one but I'm still looking around! Hugs! ♥
ReplyDeleteYour painting is beautiful! I've spent the day getting ready for work...my first day back tomorrow, first day for my kids on Thursday. My daughter & I took time out to see The Help. Great movie.
ReplyDeleteHi Ricki! I've been busy with work and I don't have anything to blog too :-( I am just enjoying your blog and the other blogs that I follow.
ReplyDeleteI love the design of the calendar too. The journal is a classic elegance, usually my type.
Have a great day!
Hi Ricki, We are preparing for another road trip. Car prep, new roller bag for computer, etc. We just love the cooler weather.
ReplyDeleteHer art is so pretty! And I love your abstract! It's terrific!
ReplyDeleteI adore my calander and look forward to changing each month to see what's new. I try not to peek and save it for a surprise. It seems the changing out gets way too soon. I did not know she had journals, but will definitely have to investigate!
ReplyDeleteI actually really love that abstract piece. Terrific job.
ReplyDeleteI love your painting Ricki, beautiful colors. It is already time to start thinking about gifts. I see your off to a great start. Love the calendar and journal.
ReplyDeleteLike your we had terrible weather here today and yesterday, good day to be home and catch up after the long weekend.
Oh wow, Ricki! I had no idea you are a very ttalented painter. No wonder you have an art studio. Do you use oil? I do...Christine
ReplyDeleteI think your painting is beautiful Ricki! My dad painted in oils and I still remember him in the livingroom standing at his easel painting...thanks for the memories!
ReplyDeleteLove the calendar I'll have to check out her site!
A very fun painting, Ricki. I love the feel of it.
ReplyDeleteAlso loved your post above about your favorite holiday. It is so nice to hear about traditions that other families hold near to the hearts. Thanks for sharing.
