DYANA’S DOLPHIN
Hello Friends,
Today my husband and I had visitors. I also found out today is Dyana’s birthday, so a couple of hours before they came, I decided to paint her a dolphin. I already had a frame. I just had to cut the paper which is 300 lb. so it didn’t have to be stretched first. And I just painted one dolphin.
Dyana and Joe brought lots of kids with them, and another young adult, so it was pretty great! It was great to meet them all. My husband knows her from the California Conservation Corps. from when they were both getting trained to be crew supervisors for different crews. He has gotten back in touch with a lot of people he met back then which has been pretty great.
So here is Dyana’s birthday dolphin. Happy Birthday, Diana!
I hope everyone is having a nice weekend. We have a little bit cooler weather here so we were all able to take a walk around the hatchery and show them all of the growing fish.
Have a wonderful day, and give someone you love a big hug! 🙂

Thanks, Tiffany. Well, I did “cheat” slightly. I had a picture and traced just the outline. Also, I had to reduce the size on our copier first.
Thanks, Tiffany! You don’t have to visit to get a watercolor from me, though! What is your favorite animal? 😀🐢

I have been playing catch up on reading, there are just so many bloggers and never enough time to squeeze them all in. LOL!

That’s great. I know what you mean. I could spend hours every day reading blogs, but I just don’t have that much time!
