What better way to celebrate the delights of summer than using my increasing stash of resist papers? In my frenzy to find more paper I tore apart a Trader Joe's grocery circular and used that. The newsprint absorbs paint like a sponge making for an interesting effect. I also cut up my Land's End kids catalog since The Bar Mitzvah Boy is nearing six feet. (Wasn't I still ordering from this catalog last year? Sheesh!) And while I'm at it, no use resisting (ahem!) that new circle punch I got with my JoAnn's coupon. Add some of the waxed paper I use to protect the counter when I paint, and voila! A sunshine celebration. Hope you're having one, too.
Happy Summer Solstice!

What's the story, Morning Glory?
And while I'm thinking of it, check out the following post in tribute to Fathers Day. Love these resist papers!

Your resist papers are brimming with creative energy and joy! Love " what's the story morning glory?" Wow...6 feet at 13...I am amazed that my 13 year old is 5'5" and one of the tallest, as back in the day he was the shortest in his class. May your son continue to reach new heights with his bar mitzvah and you with your art.
