  • OH NO!

    OH NO!

    I’m at it again. Cat Pictures. I realize, at least for now, drawing small cat pictures is the most soothing thing for me. Sounds odd, I know, but it works, and it’s a lot cheaper than a vacation in Bermuda. I don’t know, can you even go to Bermuda under the current restrictions? I get…

  • Making Progress

    Making Progress

    It’s Imbolc for Pagans, and Groundhog day for the rest.  It’s the day that early signs of spring are celebrated..the beginning of the end of the long winter. My cast is off, and I’m on to physical therapy. I can nearly write, which means I can nearly draw.  I’m typing normally again, in other words…badly.…

  • As the Smoke Clears….

    Well, as you know, the election is over, and some people are happy,others not so much.  There are a lot of people analyzing, pontificating, threatening, and despairing. What the best I saw on Social Media, was an ode to what each individual can do, to contribute to the world, and keep evil in its place.  So,…

  • On the Subject of Reiki

    I’ve managed to put up my own Reiki site.  So, it’s on its way.  Reiki Master Roxy’s Pages  So, for now, I am using this oldie but goodie drawing of mine as a logo.  In case you haven’t seen it, Sun Tree:

  • Path to…uncertainty.

    So (At the risk of sounding redundant), I have finished a drawing, and I don’t know whether I like it or not.  Do you see a common theme running through my posts?  Anyway, as usual, I’ll put it away for a while, work on something else for a while.  Then I’ll come back to it,…

  • Now How the Heck Am I Going to Handle This?

    Finally got some work done on, what I shall title, “King of the Beasts”.  Here’s a work-in-progress shot.   What is it that I need to handle?  I’m working from a photograph, with the stuffed animals stopping in the image before I stop my drawing.  In other words, I have a lot of empty space…

  • I’m being followed by a Moonshadow

    My friend finally got her belated birthday gift.  In case you didn’t see this in the comments, this is what she said about the portrait I did of her dog, Moonshadow.   I don’t know if my other post made it over here, so. A man in a brown truck just left a large flat…

  • Down and Dirty

    Time to get down and dirty, back to the nitty-gritty, and other last generation cliches…. Wasn’t my art supposed to be about healing? As I rush around producing merchandise for shows, and feel the angst of the approach of another Christmas Rush in retail…. Something stopped me, and told me to get back to my…

  • Last August….Redux

    I’m working on the project for the college students.  Right now, the winged foal is on hold.  And the date for the Artisan Market is fast approaching. Not sure if I’m going  to get the date of April 6th off at this point.  The day job, the day job, that damn…..schedule difficulties at this point. …
