…have now turned grey and rainy. Speaking of grey I have to mention that am so<\/i> inspired by the palette of Andrew Wyeth<\/a>. His rural subject matter has always been an inspiration to me, but those grays and golds and browns! This little white house painting is a definite favorite. I clipped it out and affixed it to my journal so I wouldn’t forget about it again, along with a new little concept sketch underneath. I have an idea to paint scenes of tiny capped people, strange animals and grouped farmhouses from the 1800’s, all in a tiny scale and very detailed. These tiny girls are watering their gardens but they very well could be tending to strange animals in a faraway place. <\/p>\n

\nI was going through a pile of old books and ephemera and uncovered this print of a painting in a funny little book, isn’t is so lovely?<\/p>\n

\n<\/p>\n

\nIt’s from a worn blue book called My Miniature Art Collection, Grade 4<\/i> and contains some of the sweetest prints in muted palettes. The book was a treasure stacked amongst old paperbacks at the back of a junk shop. I must share some more of this book very soon!<\/p>\n

\nLittle things are so delightful! I recently found this little porcelain box with a pearl charm inside and it made my day.<\/p>\n

\n<\/p>\n

\nHere’s a pile of inspiring things- glass domes, white pumpkins, old hankies, rusty iron birds, tea cups and blackbird feathers.<\/p>\n

\n<\/p>\n

\nI am thinking about setting them up in a shrine sort of way<\/a>. I haven’t had an inspiration table in quite awhile and its time has been delayed too long!<\/p>\n

\nThose who are here up north, enjoy the rain, it may be with us for quite awhile! Pitter-pat.<\/p>\n
