whimsical wednesday!

there are much to do today but whimsical wednesday was not forgotten.  there was a plan!  get at the chores and take coloring breaks.  this proved to be a great way to accomplish necessary tasks as well as take much needed breaks throughout the day.  while working there was the anticipation of grabbing those coloring books and the "box" of eight colors to look forward to.  even though the pictures in the books were of typical items like cars and trees and such, i didn't color them as an adult, as they should be.  i colored them the way a child would, with lots of color on the page.  the bus i colored was became red, yellow, green, orange, blue, purple, black and brown.  it turned out to be a beautiful bus.  i would love to ride in such a vehicle.  another selection was taken from the book of fairies in fairyland.  a giant mushroom was colored brown, yellow, green, black, purple; all very lightly shaded and the colors blended into one another.  to see that mushroom in nature would be amazing.  since these images were in books belonging to the grandchildren there was an added pleasure to this whimsical wednesday.  for each picture i colored, i left a note for the coloring book's owner.  when they visit and enjoy coloring, they will find that their grandmother had been there!  no doubt that will be a moment of whimsey all its own.
