My newest painting is based on a wildflower called bladder campion.
I just picked it in my garden growing wild. My daughter saw it and told me it also grows in her yard in Wisconsin.
I really like the distinct ribbing and white blossoms.
Since I have so many dandelions, I have decided to make a few dandelion concoctions. Here I am drying dandelions for tea. The roots, leaves, and flowers of dandelion are all nutritious and delicious. Just make sure not to use dandelions that have been sprayed with chemicals.

Picking borage flowers. Such a pretty blue color.
Today I picked dandelions and dried them for teas and such. Tomorrow I am making a dandelion jelly. I have not made that before. But I heard it tastes great.
Here comes my cat, Bob.
