Dandy Girl Day 19 of the 30 day challenge

6" x 6"   watercolor   $50.00

The name, "dandelion" is a mispronunciation of the French name dent de lion, which translates to “tooth of the lion”.  This refers to the dandelion’s leaves which are serrated and look much like teeth.
When dandelions turn to fluff, however, children, animals and wind can take credit for spreading their lovely seeds which are so expertly sandwiched into the base of the stem.  I always marvel at seed heads and seed pods.  Take them apart yourself and you will find that they are ever so perfectly tucked in and ready for us to spread them into our garden.  Amazing!

Raggedy Bunny Dreams

20" x 15"  watercolor   $300.00 unframed

The affection of a little girl is like no other. All her dreams, and activities are protection for those she loves.  She will love, rub raw, pet, feed, wash, dress and undress her object of love and sing songs. She will play house, take to bed, show off, and make sure that this loved one is warm.  She will take him or her everywhere.  This is something I hope little girls never grow tired of, because someday some special person will want to be loved by her sweet charms.
