Happy New Year

It's been a while since I posted - I have been away on holiday, to the sunny Algarve. What a great way to spend Christmas - in the sun with family and friends. I returned to the UK to very cold and frosty weather, which I am still trying to get used to again!! And now it is a new year - may 2009 bring you all joy and good fortune.



This is the first bit of creating I have done in a while, and it is for ACF - what a great background they provided us with. I combined it with a photograph I took in my garden last summer of a dragonfly that landed for a spot of sun! Hope you like the end result.

Sally, what a fantastic piece of art you made with the background. I enjoyed hearing about your nice, warm Christmas gathering. Today it is crisp and cold on the eastern seaboard of the US. Happy New Year! May you have happiness and good health and plenty of free time to do art.
