This week, Dover is showcasing Japanese art. You can get on the mailing list for free images each week at
The sampler shows images from 12 different books.
I wonder how many hours are in this peacock embroidery....
(click to enlarge and see detail)
I miss seeing hanging pots of Fuchsia's here in the south. It gets too hot here for them.
They even grow in flower beds in Oregon.
Southern Jasmine is a good trade off however.
Feel free to click and save these for your artwork.
I have never made anything with a Japanese style, theme, or look, but there is something soothing going on here.
I have watched demonstrations of Japanese painting ,,,on tv, or at the fair...its been so long, but I do remember it was intriguing, and fast, with wonderful brushes.
Enjoy!

HI!!!!
I'm so happy you popped over to visit my blog!!!! That very decorated Halloween House is not ours, I cannot take credit for that!!!! It is near our home though!!!!They always decorate all up for all the Holidays!!!!!
I say I am intrigued by Politics but it is FAR MORE THEN THAT!!!! It is a Huge Passion of mine and has been since 1980, when Ronald Reagan came into my life!!!!! I was only 22 at that time, I have always had a keen interest in American History so it took a great man to make it real to me!!!!!
I LOVE our Country and Pray for it!!!!! I do believe that if this Nation would Pray and ask for healings of this land, we could be ONCE again a Great Nation, but I fear the Left wing Loonies as I like to call them will Never go for that!!!!! So God may have turned his back on us, who knows, I just hope enough good caring people are Praying for her that he won't just yet. I LOVE the Oregon coast, I think it is my favorite coastline!!!!!! I have been to all 50 states, my dream and goal before turning 50 a year ago!!!!!!
I also LOVE The south!!!!!! Love the accent, the manners, the moss draped trees, the history that is there!!!!!!! Oh to spend a quiet day in Mobile Alabama in one of those beautiful gardens!!!!!!
well pop back over and visit again sometime til then have a great day!!!!
hugs,
