This is a new venture. A whim that came to me and I decided to go for it.

I think they’re a fun way to celebrate the South, and I have lots of ideas to keep me going.

With the blue skies of Alabama as a backdrop (cue the music…”Sweet home Alabama…where the skies are so blue…”), each 5×7 pastel of my state describes a color of the South:

Clockwise from top left: “Grass,” “Dirt,” “Rust,” “Camellia” (state flower!), “Wood,” “Yellowhammer” (state bird!).

Come see my Alabamas in person for the first time this Saturday, April 5th at the Crestline Art Show! I’ve already sold 2 before it starts!
