This is my third try at a blog today.  The first two just didn't
hit it for me. Then I realized that I needed to create something,
and did this painting to try and capture some of the joy I feel
each time I see the Irises I bought the other day.

In the gorgeous sunlight today, the flowers looked like birds
taking wing. I was dazzled.  Now I feel glad that I spent
some time with the beauties.  

I hope that you had a glorious, and creative day.  Mine was 
especially good because I talked to a former student, who
now lives in Halifax, and it was so nice to think about our
other home province. My former student loves Nova Scotia,
and hopes to bring his wife over from India to live there.  That
made me very happy.
