I like these macros, Cathy.
I hope you are enjoying the wind-down to the end of the school year.
Your paintings have so much happiness. Beautiful.
I love the vibrant colours - They really lift the spirits!
This close up is fantastic.
So vivid, so full of energy! Perhaps a floral self portrait?
Beautiful! I happened on your blog by chance!
