Blossom, the vintage garden girl, is as fickle as ever and constantly changing her outifts.
Blossom was the inspiration for my new line of "garden girl" paintings that I plan to turn into cards this year to sell to raise money to donate to a charity that buys wheelchairs for those who can not afford one.
As well as for the more whimsical garden girl paintings with birds!

I am painting more than ever and spend lots ot time in the garden painting whimsical watercolors if I am not in my studio. My plan is to post evey other Saturday.

I missed you and wondered and worried about what had become of you. I’m so happy to hear you’re feeling better and will resume your inspirational paintings and decorating posts. Welcome back❣️
Glad to see you back posting and the art work is so pretty. Love always to see Bently he is so adorable and makes me smile. Happy Saturday. Have a great weekend. xoxo Kris
I can't believe it has been years! I am so sorry to hear of your autoimmune diagnosis, and that Bentley crossed the rainbow bridge. I am happy to see your return to your garden, that lovely blue china and vibrant yellow flowers are a joy to behold. Be well, and glad you will be posting your lovely garden again.
Thank you - so nice to hear from you.
Welcome back. Sad to hear about Bentley, and your battle with AI. I like the paintings with the wheelchairs.
So pleased that you are blogging again. Sorry to hear of your Bentley's crossing the Rainbow Bridge, and hope you are ok. I also have a couple of auto immune diseases and am struggling a bit but just keep on keeping on. Your paintings are very pretty and I hope you continue your good work.
Dear Erin, you have been missed so much and it's lovely to have you back sharing your always charming paintings. Losing Bentley must have been very hard, he was such a handsome fellow and a dog I know I would have enjoyed so much. Hearing of your health issue is upsetting. . . . . .I hope and pray all is going better for you now and that you will continue to bring us art which will add so much color, and happiness, to our lives during this continuing difficult time.
Bob and I just got our first vaccine jabs this morning - it went smoothly and we return on Valentine's Day for jab #2!
Stay safe, be well, and know we are happy to see you back.
Warm hugs, Mary in NC
Welcome back, Erin. I'm glad you are back on blog and looking forward to many more posts. It had to hurt like crazy losing dear Bentley. Fourteen is a find, long life but that doesn't matter much when you are saying goodbye. Sending love and hope!
Chère Erin,
It is nice to see you again blogging. I hope you will feel better. You are an example of courage and hope Erin. I admire your spirits. Your paintings bring so much joy and hope. Thank you very much for sharing with us.
