Slacker
I remember during the 1990’s, there was a term for adults who didn’t want to do anything. Slackers. As I recall, the people described were Generation X, and it was totally insulting. I wonder how all of the wonderful people from Generation X that I worked with are doing. Anyway, I’ve been a slacker. I…

Be Still My Heart

Beauty in Ugliness
Back away, in a time when I was a young woman, I was hospitalized for depression. The ward was grimy and dull. I challenged myself, was there any beauty I could find, in these dismal circumstances? Then I found the book case, with its colorful novels. I thought about it, and realized it would be…

When?!
I am waiting not so patiently for a new shipment of the paper I use. Unlike the last several months, I have a cascade of drawings I want to do. I need paper to do them. Nuff said. This is one of the still lifes I’ve done recently. I just thought I put it here,…

Flying
I guess it comes as no surprise that I’m inspired by flocks of birds in flight. I remember a flock of pigeons taking off in Manhattan when I lived there. For all the bad things New Yorkers say about pigeons, they are beautiful In what feels like another life, here in Connecticut, I walked past…
