Wondering where I get my inspiration for certain paintings ? Here’s a perfect example. On our recent "fun wednesday" to Seal Beach again, I had an impulse buy. I bought lady bugs.
Yes, it’s true. You can now buy lady bugs to help with your aphid/bug problem in your garden. And, well we have this beautiful little climbing rose bush with the tiniest new buds, that were covered in aphids. Those little rose buds might have never made it...but lady bugs to the resuce.

Have you ever released 1500 lady bugs at once? I highly recommend it.

By request, a little more Lulu, checking out the lady bugs before we set them free.
