Graffiti

The topic for my photo group competition last week was graffiti.  Somehow I managed to miss this wall in downtown Abilene.  I found plenty of murals. Murals didn't count for the competition.

I guess I just didn't look hard enough.

Upside Down and Graffiti

While I was walking around downtown today, I saw this.  There was a lot of chalk graffiti on the ground, so the art center probably had a children's event recently.  

My heart is grateful that:

some people believe in children's art

Almost Black and White

There's a ballet school in town and this artwork is on the outside of the building.  It's a beautiful graphic with just a touch of red in the hair.

My heart is grateful for: 

the very peaceful day I had today

Naked Cake Topper

My friend makes beautiful hand-made flowers that can be used as decor and/or cake toppers.  These lovely pink and white flowers sit atop a personal sized naked cake.  Once the cake is devoured eaten, the flowers make a beautiful display in a small vase set anywhere in a home.  

If I lived close enough and didn't have to worry about them being destroyed during my flight home, I'd definitely purchase some for my home.

 

My heart is grateful for:

heading home to see my friends and family

Wall Mural

The friend I'm visiting has a room she uses for her creative endeavors, her studio.  She wanted to decorate one of the walls but couldn't find anything she liked, so she drew her own beautiful design and then used a paint-pen to finish it.  

Oh that we lived near each other and she could decorate my home....

My heart is grateful today for:

the down-time I've enjoyed for a while before we head out for our daily excursion
