✨New Art//Summer Solstice🌞
Added 2023-06-26 11:16:06 +0000 UTCThe sun reaches its zenith, and nature is embraced by the fiery touch of unending light. Midsummer weaves its spell, with the longest day stretching on and on. Under the midnight sun, twilight fades into a dreamlike dance of perpetual daylight.
I never seem to finish these seasonal holiday pieces on time!! 😅🎨 lol It is because I usually am inspired to draw them ON the holiday itself. So, this one's a couple of days late for Midsummer (which was on Saturday), and even later for the actual Summer Solstice (Wednesday last week). But you know what? But hey, no worries! 🌸🌞 Where I am, we're still basking in the glory of summer and the days are looooong!
Here in lovely Stockholm, the sun rises at about 3:30am, and sets at 10pm, but it never gets completely dark, so we don't have night. What about you guys? I'm guessing there are a few of you located even further north then me!
Anyhoo, enough chit-chat! I really hope you guys enjoy my ode to Midsummer, even if it's fashionably late! 🎉🌼✨
EDIT: I noticed something I wanted to fix after I posted it (funny how that always happens!). The images are now updated with the fix! 🙈

Oh, that is a great idea! I have wanted to drive up to Idaho and Montana, but it is always delayed. I may just have to go by myself... but the company is a little boring. ;-) How many acres do you want the US Cult Complex to have? Is the budget still below $27M? Bummer... we better recruit more "members" fast! haha

2023-06-28 10:55:54 +0000 UTCThank you! Yeah, lots of envelopes every month! It takes a long time to sign and pack but I feel super grateful that I get to send so many out every month! Ooh, fog is cool! It has a nice "MYSTical" feeling. hehe! You enjoy the summer too! Maybe a little roadtripping to look at some properties?

2023-06-28 10:55:20 +0000 UTC🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻 So pretty and peaceful. Your art always has such nice vibes, it makes me feel repetitive in my compliments xD Like I can't be original xD Love the yellow/purple color combo, I use it with my smartlights now and then as well 😊💜💛💜💛💜

2023-06-26 20:13:42 +0000 UTCOh, very pretty! And sooo many envelopes! Yikes! As for our sun... 5:40am to 8pm... but I am pretty far South (compared to you). Being near the ocean we have been getting a lot of fog... April, May, June... (normal for us), but the sun is starting to come out now, so summer is here and we will be warming up. Enjoy your warmer season - the cool weather will be back before we know it!

2023-06-26 13:54:36 +0000 UTCLovely! Such a sense of motion, she's just turning to give the viewer a smile. As for long days, here in the Pacific NW the days are lit until 9:30 pm or so, sun's up a little before or after 5 am, this is PST. Love it!
