  3. In Hawaii there are probably flowers like that 2 feet across. This little Zinnia is only about an inch and a half wide. Tiny piece of beauty!

  5. THIS FLOWER COULDN'T BE ANYMORE PERFECT.I TOLD GRAMPS I REALLY NEEDED HIM TO TAKE ME TO THE HOBBY SHOP TO GET SOME PAINTS AND BRUSHES. I KNOW I COULD PAINT THIS FLOWER.

    I'VE BEEN IN A BAD WAY FOR THE WHOLE WEEK. BAD FOOT PROBLEM BUT STARTED TO WALK ON THE FOOT TODAY. SO MAYBE SOMETIME NEXT WEEK I'LL GET THOSE PAINTS.

    THANKS FOR SHARING THIS FLOWER.

  6. I haven't seen Ross's new video yet, but I'll go to his site and find it. Keep walking. Every journey starts with one step. Or something. Some people would call it pacing, but I like to walk around my apartment, and the yard, several times a day.

  7. and you could use those colors of the Zinnia, in any painting, abstract or realistic, and it will be beautiful. Get those paints, Granny—orange, yellow, pink, green, black—you can't go wrong!

  8. MY SON IN LAW AND DAUGHTER WERE HERE TODAY TO HELP GRAMPS PUT UP LIGHT FIXTURES IN KITCHEN AND DINNING ROOM. ANYWAYS, MY SILS' MOM DIED THIS PAINT YEAR. SHE WAS AN ARTIST. I ASK HIM IF HIS DAD WASN'T GOING TO USE HER BRUSHES ETC I WOULD LIKE TO HAVE THEM. I DON'T KNOW IF HE'LL ASK HIS DAD BUT I'M HOPING. ALL I WANT TO DO IS PLAY AROUND WITH SOME PAINTS. WE'LL SEE WHAT HAPPENS. IF NOTHING COMES THROUGH , I'LL JUST HAVE GRAMPS TAKE ME AND AND START SMALL.
