Dear Everyone:

I am procrastinating today.

I started a series of folk art paintings of

birds and have a couple of pieces

finished but am hitting a block on

doing any more of them at the moment.

I was browsing through a binder of

my work and came across these 2 images

of Russian dolls in a window. They look

charming and with the brightly coloured patterns

look festive to me.

They remind me a bit of 2 photographs by

nationally recognized, award-winning

Nova Scotia photographer

Margot Metcalfe. See some of her work

at http://www.secordgallery.com/. Click on artists.

I hope that you enjoy these 2 images.

I am just mulling over whether to do a folk art

painting of them.

Have a generous-hearted kind of day.

Helen.
