Love Nesting


I got myself into a bit of a commercial mode this afternoon by taking off on a thought I had a couple of weeks ago. Somehow that thought went right out of my head until I recaptured it today. I thought I'd better sieze the moment!


I call these little paintings "love nests" because the 2 eggs look like a heart. No really, they do. Don't you see it?


It's like making images out of clouds. Well, sort of.


Or that magical moment when you're in the middle of nature and you spot a heart in a tree or a rock! Too bad no one is there to witness it. But that's when you take a picture of it and bring it home, perhaps post it on your blog ;)


Anyway, I've been a bit absent. A bit spotty. A tad preoccupied.
I think I needed these little love nests today.

I hope you like them.

  1. They are darling Lolo, and yes, I saw the heart with the eggs before you mentioned it in your post. (of course, I've taken a lot of migraine meds too, so I'm seeing a lot of things! LOL!!!)
    The set of four look great together; would make a lovely set of notecards too, yes???

    XXOO~~♥

  7. I saw the heart-eggs before you mentioned it in your post and I think these are the best Valetine's day cards I have seen: they are original, sweet and natural.
    Happy Valentine's Day to you.

  8. Adorable and lovely.

    I've been spotty too and preoccupied. Lots of reasons but weather is my excuse. Too confining and not getting out enough.
