We're celebrating Kelly's birthday this evening....and I collaborated with Clarke to make her a frog. For those of you new to the blog...Kelly is my son Sam's girlfriend. And if you want the backstory to the frogs....you can read this post.
Kelly is an artist...and spent a chunk of her career painting murals around the state. So we are calling this one The Muralist! Kelly has a green sweater almost just like this. The feminine lace....the pin...the nose ring and the boots personalize it just perfectly! Happy Birthday Kelly!Here are some of Kelly's murals. This first one is part of a whole series in a stretch of buildings. I want to go back and take more photos.
It was quite a day for The Traveling Flowers. They visited Tsankawi Unit, White Rock City Visitor Center and Bandelier National Monument. Don't you feel like you're right on vacation with them?
Cherie said this was the first day that three different people asked about the flowers....and one of them offered to take this photo! I can tell they're having fun with this! I know I am!









Oh, wow, the frog is perfect for Kelly! Her building paintings are amazing and I love the black & white painting that’s like a pen and ink sketch. The flowers definitely did some traveling today.
ReplyDeleteTotally agree Cherie!
DeleteI am loving The Traveling Flowers...by the way. And I so appreciate you playing along!
DeleteThe muralist frog is perfection!!! As is, I suspect, the muralist herself! You and Clarke have a winner with that little frog, and Sam has a winner with Kelly ❤️❤️
ReplyDeleteMy favorite of all the fab photos of the traveling flowers is the one in which the flowers are perched on a ladder leading to a cliff dwelling. I love this virtual traveling I"m getting to do!
Thanks Dotty....I think Kelly's frog turned out pretty good! And I love that ladder photo too! What fun this journey has been!
DeleteThe Muralist frog is delightful and Kelly is an amazing artist!! And your traveling flowers are having quite a trip with quite a story attached to them. So much fun to follow their journey! Have a great weekend, MaryAnn!
ReplyDeleteTotally agree Judy on all of it! I hope you have a great weekend too! We just got back from the Saturday Protest!
DeleteLove the adventure your flower sculpture is on, think of the tales it can tell you.
ReplyDeleteCan’t decide which one of Kelly mural I love more they are all so graphic!

The flower adventure is fun! We all need a little fun in our lives! And yes...the murals are fantastic!
DeleteLove Kelly’s fantastic murals and her personal frog is just perfect❣️ I feel like I’m traveling with the Traveling Flowers and another friend who’s in Australia and sharing as well. Lots of joy ❣️
ReplyDeleteThanks Louise! I think we are all traveling right along with the flowers!
DeleteKelly's murals are wonderful! I have to ask - where did you find those boots for the frog? They are fabulous! Cherie hasn't been posting many photos of her travels on her blog so I come over to yours's to see where they have been! LOL!!
ReplyDeleteI think they're wonderful too! I think Cherie and Dale have been busy...so you're welcome here to see their progress! She's been really wonderful about keeping me updated!
