I hope you get some cooler temps soon. I only had them open in the morning, it hit 100 today but I enjoyed every minute!

Opening my window today for the first time in four months.

A bouquet of colorful flowers in a vase on a table.

I needed a little pick-me-up. Aren’t they so pretty?

Charcuterie board for dinner again. Why, because I can.

I can also remember my besties number! 376-8950

I am almost at the halfway point with my mini paintings. Here’s the most recent dozen, 37-48. #100tinytreasures #art #watercolor

Blue sky full of white fluffy clouds with wispy gray clouds in Phoenix, Arizona.

Waking up to 68° and this beautiful sky.

I haven’t ran for a few years, I still got it 🤣

A colorful painting of red, orange and pink abstract flowers on a blue and light green background.

It’s been a busy week and an enjoyable one in my studio. My little spot where I can focus on things that make me happy. Here’s my latest painting #art

Currently reading her book which is also great and very motivating by just the title alone.

A sky full of clouds and two palm trees in Phoenix, Arizona after a rainstorm.

It was a beautiful tropical day in the heart of the desert. Quite lovely after a nice downpour with the cicadas buzzing, and the sweet aroma of all the desert plants. #cloudsfordays #az #clouds☁️

A still life painting on an easel of a bright red vase full of flowers.

When someone gives you flowers paint them so they last forever. Artist thoughts. #art

Thank you!

Happy Friday! These are in full bloom in Arizona and the bees are loving it 💜 #fridayflowers

Don’t worry the rain coming will clean it off

Haha!

Upper 80’s sounds amazing, we won’t see those temps for a few months.

Butterflies can’t see their wings. They can’t see how truly beautiful they are, but everyone else can. People are like that as well. — Naya Rivera

I am holding up a round vinyl sticker that is an illustration of a Saguaro cactus with a brown mountain set against a bright orange background with the word Arizona. This is a hand drawn digital illustration inspired by my visits to the Desert Botanical Garden in Phoenix, Arizona.

For all my Arizona lovers out there! These waterproof stickers will hold up under any monsoon ⛈️ #az #cactus

Blue skies and clouds with desert cacti plants in Phoenix, Arizona.

A beautiful 78° morning after the monsoon storms. Enjoying coffee outside after many months.

Mind boggling for sure! What was even more mind boggling was when my 91 year old Dad says I had that job. He was a pin boy at the bowling alley when he was 13!

This one is scary!

This is one of the strongest storms I’ve seen. Several tree fires near me and one house fire. This lightning is scary!

Been here 9 years and I agree it’s intense!

Same! 115 today here in Phoenix 🔥🌵
