It seems like I just posted to to welcome in June and here we are in July already. We are just hanging out at the house for the 4th as the kids will be visiting the in laws. I don't mind and since it is 3 days off for JT maybe we can get some things done if the weather will dry up. We have had a very wet summer so far. The rain seems to bring in those bigger ants. Trying to keep ahead of the little creatures who come in when it rains. It does help me stay in the craft room more so I watch movies and work on some of my ufp's. Towards the middle of the month we are going to Cincy for a 40's train ride. I think it is one of those mystery dinner shows or something. JT signed up with a group from our little church. There are a few other things going on and July starts our birthday/holiday every month until March.
Do you have any plans for July?

Hi Denise, June went by fast. We'll be chilling out over at our youngest daughter's and snl house to swim and grill. Then in the middle of the month I'll be up at the church doing a week long Iconography workshop for about 6 hours a day. Hope you have a wonderful month. The train ride sounds like fun. |

Laurie, I've never heard of iconography. What is that? Could you share about it here? |

Iconography is a form of religious painting. It started many centuries ago by nuns and monks. The paints are special type and you thin the paint with holy water. The person painting one asks the holy spirit to help guide them. This is just one of many that I have done. When we a through with the painting we'll get it blessed by the priest with a special oil and holy water. |

Happy July, SPG sisters! :) I’m with you, Denise…June flew by! We will spend the 4th at my sister-in-law/brother-in-law’s house. Swimming, grilling, and hanging out. Then home before dark to make sure we can catch rogue fireworks around our dense/house. It’s crazy! John and I will be working at staying as cool as possible this month. It’s started off with a bang! 107 today! So hot. So we will do some indoor projects as much as possible. Toward the end of the month I will be doing a virtual Christmas in July card making class. I’m looking forward to that! |

Beautiful work, Laura. Do you draw these free-hand and then paint them? Are they painted on canvas? You do nice work. |
