Sitting Here Resting My Bones
As I’ve mentioned, probably ad nauseum, that I am recovering from knee surgery. Which, as I also said, is getting in the way of artwork. Yet, I’m being told to have a successful blog, you must write a post every week, preferably more often. I have no new work. So where does that leave me?…

Wholing Up
As I sit here snuggly, foot elevated, bored as heck, recovering from knee replacement surgery. I’d like to do some artwork, but sitting…safely at least…would be a problem. I have a little sketchbook and it dawned on me. Why don’t I refresh my drawing skill? Good question, and surprising after doing artwork for decades. I…

And Things That Go Bump in the Night!
This is a bit of a change. I have no idea for a birthday gift for one of my best friends. Her birthday is March, so I have some time. Of course, when I run out out of ideas, art always comes to my rescue. I’m hoping my friend doesn’t look at my blog and…

I’m Sick of This
One thing or another, I haven’t been able to do artwork. Earlier in the month, I had Covid-19. I also was getting ready for knee replacement surgery. As it turns out, I’m feeling fine, no one who has been in contact with me has gotten sick, and I quarantined as required. As it turns out,…

Ringing Out the Bad
I used to have a tradition at New Year to post my worst drawing of the previous year. It was meant as a twist on everyone posting the best. But I drifted away from it. Why? I don’t know. Maybe too much to choose from? One thing about being prolific is that you have proportionately…

Once Again
I’m stuck. I’m stuck because I can’t think of a full-sized drawing to do. My life had been filled with non-art things, so I just did notecards for something artistic to do. Now that life has settled down for a while, I’m ready to do something full-sized. But I’m stuck. So, here are the notecards…

What A Card!
I’ve always wondered where the term card came from, to describe a witty person. No, I haven’t always wondered that, but it was a good excuse to hop on Google. Evidently, the first use of the term in literature was from Dickens, I think it said 1863. But I’m talking about notecards, greeting cards and…
