• My Second Sketchbook

  My 2nd sketchbook is complete. The art on the wall is my painting, “Sun Shower” (2023). The first 5 sketches are from May 2014. I don’t remember if I was looking at anything to draw the setting, and I created no more art at the time. And then comes some nature sketches from August 2021…

• Love Sent in Many Ways

  

  (featured: Peeko on the couch, having a quietly relaxing morning with his Mama) * I was really sad to hear of the earthquake in Turkey today. I was maybe better prepared to hear it with a lovingkindness dream last night, of myself being lifted up in love and carried, before I saw the news or…

• My Own Home Design: A Place to Create Art and Rest

  The library corner…complete! With Monet’s “Flower Beds” painting on canvas displayed by my reading chair. … I didn’t think this book would be laugh out loud funny, but I am still smiling when I think of a certain little story—Monet getting cranky with his own art failures and one day hiring cooks to make him…

• I Hoped for a Moon Soon to Be Seen as Near as My Window, It Is Here

  

  …I still photoed it a moment outside on the balcony…I don’t feel frustrated as if it should show apart from the tree; it is sweet like that & even a little teasingly.
