The dogwoods in front of my house have been glorious!

Now, the dogwoods are past their season. Surviving blossoms are pitiful.

I thought maybe I could use them to print on the gel plate. I used some blossoms to pull paint from the plate.

I used others like stamps, painting the bracts (petals,) and center.

The paint “celled” so badly, i kept adding paint till I produced this.

I’m anxious to pull this, but I can’t decide between light blue or a rich leafy green.

I also spent the better part of today dodging a telephone scam. Maybe that’s a craft, and I can find the energy to share that someday. For today, I’m exhausted.
