going to town *edited to add more shell photos

i think it's the first time i've been to town in like what? a month?
oye

it's not a biggie, i just have to go to talk to someone about medical insurance and stuff.

ok now, in painting news, this is a bit of the props for the (i hope) latest painting, what you are looking at is a conch shell we've had for like 30 years, a slab of a tree, and some of my begonia that i cut and am rooting in water. it's against one of the gator boards i use to mount watercolor paper on while i am painting- i am wandering around looking for other stuff to put in there too..
so that is the start of the next painting i think..... i am really liking that shell's interior, and i like the pink of the begonia...

i WISH i had some other smaller flowering plants in that sort of pretty shell pink to put in there- but i don't
i would love a mini orchid, or african violet in full bloom, or if i could have.....a pink petunia (so very out of season no?)

we are having a test of our emergency storage system here...... and i found that we are lacking milk, and eggs..... ....and i really need to get a cold frame for the winter
i am going to threaten the chickens......and when this test of emergency storage system is over.... i will also add powdered eggs to the storage list
along with powdered WHOLE milk
oye

ok have a good day you guys
