spring arrived while i took my blog break.   while color blooms

outdoors, i have had fun with monochromatic and minimal colors.

by playing with a setting on my iphone this is a very colorful journal page 

was translated into black and white.  i will show what the color version 

in a future post.   in real life very little is black or white

so creating it by the touch of a button gives a magical feel.  

i celebrated a friends' s birthday by going to the 

diane von furstenburg exhibit

at the los angeles county museum of art

i remember when her wrap dresses were the

craze.

and they still are popular 

fifty years later.

i am glad to be back here at my home away from home with you

and my paint party friday friends.  i hope you get a chance to 

visit some of the other creatives who post their art each week.
