Happy Monday! I’m playing with color and pattern again today. I’d love to do these as a series with hand-drawn words in the solid area. Also, this weekend I thought it would be fun to take a look at the painting series all together so far. It’s neat for me to see what common themes may be emerging as I’m giving myself the freedom to paint whatever interests me each day.
Sing with me now…
“There’s nothing you can do that can’t be done…
Nothing you can make that can’t be made…
Nowhere you can be that isn’t where you’re meant to be…
All you need is love.
Love is all you need.”
Happy Friday! I’ll see you back here on Monday for more making!
A reminder we all — young and old — need sometimes! I’m loving that green-gold, turquoise and fuchsia combo these days, and it’s fun to work more on my painted lettering. I’ll be using the practice for some commissioned work in the next month or so, so stay tuned for some process peeks.
I was thinking about putting a word in the blue area on this one. Not sure yet!
Hello & welcome! I’m Haley Montgomery, and I’m the designer and owner of Small Pond Graphics. I sometimes fancy myself a frog kisser— a documentarian coaxing poignant moments from unexpected places. This blog has evolved from those moments.
The small Pond FIELD GUIDE is part diary, part sketchbook, and part wish list – an archive of ordinary wonders. For years, this space has housed my stories – creative ideas, vintage inspiration, our forays into curious places, and the simple artifacts of quiet of conscious living. Through watercolor, photography, and illustrated tales, these pages uncover the blessing of ordinary days and the wonder found in authentic places and pursuits.
I invite you to open the boxes.
Peek into the drawers.
Rustle through the pages.
I’m honored to have you here.
