    Old Painting as Reference

    I am still processing being woken up at 5am by two baby magpies knocking on my bedroom windowsill. I am convinced they knew exactly what they were doing. They didn’t even bring me treasure, and it is my birthday tomorrow, so something is going wrong somewhere in the great universal order. There is no universal…

    Draw It and Spray It

    I hate that in this election I have so little hope, and that my community is under attack, and being used as a political football. I despise liars, and I especially despise sanctimonious, holier than thou, religious ones, especially when their vicious little games are so self-serving. ugh Today started out lovely, but thanks to…

    100 Day Project Day 23 My darling lurcher lodger went home today, and although he was only here for 3 nights, the house now feels empty. I had a lot of boring things to catch up on, which I did, but I was perilously close to not getting any art done, so I grabbed one…

    100 Day Project Day 4 I am still wildly procrastinating over finishing an oil painting I am working on. It really only needs one more pass, but my flow was interrupted, and now it has this invisible and currently impenetrable shield around it. It’s productive procrastination, tho, as I have been doing a bit of…
