They do look good donāt they, the photo isnāt wonderful the wall is a light green colour really and even thought Iām my own worse cryptic I really like these, did them in 2011 so they have been there a long time now and I am still happy with them !!! I do tend to change things around a lot but they are staying put 
Off to make some noise

Very pretty pinks Hazel. Enjoy your day. Itās month end for us, yes I know itās only the 23rd but itās the month end deadline for us today so that means lots of work! 
Hi Margaret hope your month end goes OK and itās not tooooo hot in the office, Iām back from shopping and it is very humid here today which I find hard work !!!
Iām quite happy that the software I need to use for month end isnāt working on my computer today. It gives me the excuse to go and work next door, where they have air conditioning, bliss!
I would imagine that this hot weather isnāt very good for working with wax, whether itās encaustic work or artbars. I think my artbars have probably melted by now!lol

My wax is OK it takes a lot to melt it but itās too hot for me ! When I have the hot plate, hot air and irons out my little studio area gets very warm, I have a window open as itās essential to have ventilation working with hot wax but there is no breeze here !!! I can sometimes get in a painting session early in the day but by mid morning its too much at the moment.
I have been busy with web work and doing jobs around the house this week as we have visitors coming at the weekend but Iāll be painting again soon
Good you can use an office with air con. Margaret I have a fan in my office but itās not the same !!

Very pretty scene Brenda, I bet it looks even better in real life, itās hard to show glitter in a photo.
Waving everyone
Itās been a beautiful day here, Iāve been out catching some sunshine, got to make the most of it while itās around!
Hereās a brusho painting I did this morning
When it goes well it goes really really well, but I had 3 failures for this one success. Itās so easy to make mud - the brusho flecks are so tiny you canāt see them, so when I tried to put orange next to purple that was already down, the tiny stray purple flecks mixed with the orange and made a horrible shade of yuck. I think the trick will be to let each stage dry then brush the page thoroughly with a dry brush before adding the next colour. Not sure Iām that patient lol I might just have to work with colours that donāt mix to mud!

Brenda, I love your acrylic paintings, so pretty! This one is gorgeous too.
Lovely butterfly Stephie, I think Iāve gone off the idea of buying Brusho, might buy a bigger tin of artbars or inktense blocks, not decided which yet, not tried the blocks yet, so I need to find out which I prefer.
Iāve spent the evening in the garden in the shade, itās cooler out there than in the house!
Evening all, am waiting for the bus had a lovely evening with friends and only just found out they changed the bus times 
so Iāve an extra half hour wait!
Beautiful butterflies today Brenda and stephie don t blame you in this heat Margaret itās still very hot here too
