Violated My Own Rule!
Bob Ross always said, there are no mistakes, just happy accidents. In my latest attempt, I was happy accidenting all over the place. My usual rule is: Don’t draw when you’re absorbed with other things. I violated my own rule. I do have an idea of how to salvage it, but not today. I do…

Love Shack, Baby!
Ok, I’m wrong, my devotion to the B52’s not withstanding. It’s a love nest. My friend looked at it and said ” You must have been a little squirrely when you drew this. “. Another friend chimed in, “No, she was just plain nuts!”. Well, so much for my friends. It is a squirrels’ nest.…

Blown Away
What do I think of other artists’ work? I love it! I love it better than my own work, if I am honest. Mostly, I prefer representational work, although some abstract blows me away, too. What I really like is work similar to my own, only better. Frustration hits, though, when something in the non-art,…

Hello Darkness and All the Rest of my Friends
Well the story goes like this. I’ve been having a string of sleepless nights, and then, I realized one night it was dark. I hadn’t been really conscious of it, but with the thinning of the veil, the approach of Halloween, or Samhain as I observe, it really sank in. The darkness. So, this is…

Well, That Went Over Like a Lead Balloon
As you may recall, I was going to start another blog on my new gallery site, and leave this one in the dust. It just wasn’t a great design for a blog, I couldn’t add pictures, and I’ve got all of you over here already enjoying what I write. So, for my gallery site, go…

I Should Explain….
Here’s the latest: “Fireflies in July If that looks familiar to you, and maybe it doesn’t, I’ll explain anyway. It may remind you of this: That’s because I’m drawing something very familiar to me, which is the porches in this condo complex….so, you see, there’s a good reason for this repetition. Not a particularly interesting…
