They're Overdue...

I knew from the start what I wanted to do for my "Compass" prompt for the April artist trading card swap. In fact, I was so settled in it that I set my subject...and promptly forgot to do it in April!

I have an appointment this morning, but as soon as I get home, I'm going into the studio and I'm not coming out until the ATCs are finished and ready to mail. I'll share photos tomorrow.

  1. Love all the colors and composition - that's such a postcard perfect picture! And I'm sure your trading cards will be, too! (Knew it would be the Compass Barn 😊)

    1. Hi Lois-
      Thank you, dear. I've been thinking about notecards, but postcardswould be cool, too. I was pretty sure my friends would guess what I'd do. 🤭

  3. Sherryofcreateology: Such a perfect model for your April ATCs. Love your compass barn! Here it is May and I am so far behind already. This broken Pelvis is very disruptive to my daily activities!

    1. Dear Sherry-
      Thanks! I don't have your excuse for being behind. I'm so sorry you got hurt, and praying you're back to 100% very soon. You just worry about getting better.

  4. Your barn is wonderful and obviously serves as perfect inspiration for the ATC theme. Mind you, I'm inspired by barns ALL the time!

    1. Hi MA-
      I always thought we'd live in a converted barn, and I've collected barn books for ages! I haven't given up yet. Now I'm saving plans for one story barndominiums. You just never know, but I do love our outbuildings.

  5. Beautiful picture, and the green grass always adds so much.

    1. Hi Shirley-
      Thank you, dear. I'm so happy to see another "greening of Hickory Hill Farm". Wisconsin waking up every spring is so lovely, and even though they're predicting frost overnight, the leaves and blossoms persist. 💚
