One of the things I love about Northern Summers is the plethora of Cone Flowers (Echinacea purpurea)that adorn my garden. I fell in love with them when I first lived in Delaware some 8 years ago and the relationship has not dimmed. Sadly this year something seems to be "munching" on them in a serious way, but because we also seem to have a lot of BEES in the garden this year I am loathe to spray to kill the hungry critters. A gardening dilemma for sure! However, this case, the Bees win!
In between snapping happy pics of pre-munched flowers and taking care of my Digital Magic Class 2 students I have been beavering away behind the scenes, working on more digital projects, artwork for exhibitions and putting together some new and cool digital brushes, textures and overlays that are part of "another" project that I hope to unveil soon!
Nothing like a laid back Summer with PLENTY to do!
OH and don't forget I will be teaching at Art N Soul in Portland in October. If you are planning on being up that way I suggest you take a look at the class line up, it's pretty awesome!
