I haven't uploaded in 2.5 years but felt the call today. I do go on Splitcoast for inspiration regularly. What have I been doing? painting, Zentangle, making cards to sell at a gallery, dealing with life changes (mother and brother passed away in 2016). I will attempt to be back more often, now that I'm retired. All the time in the world to use and waste.

Welcome back to the gallery! I'm so glad you joined in with the Sketch Challenge. Terrific take on it. I like the rounded corners. The apple core is so cute! Wonderful job with the apple challenge, too. Beautiful card. TFS

Welcome back, and welcome to the world of the retired! It's pretty fun : )
I love the images you've used, colors and papers. Great looking sentiment to go with these apples.

That's such fun with the apple core as well as the apples. It sounds as if life has been busy for you, and grief can sap creativity, but it's great to see this in the gallery. The background is really beautiful.
