CITY LIFE--COUNTRY LIFE

SHE LIVED IN THE TOWN BENEATH THE CITY

i used to keep sheep.

i had different colored sheep, black, brown and white.

we sheared them, i spun and wove. i still do a little in the winter, it is in my bones to stay.

people used to give me fleece that i washed, dyed and spun...but hardly anyone knows that part of me anymore (especially those with sheep)...so now i have to send away and here is a wonderful place to do that...just in case a follower friend would be interested. you can enlarge to see the address:)) This is how it came in the mail...so pretty, inviting and special...

when i found this in the morning light, i had to do it!

SPUN!

(but i won't let myself spin the rest until it's freezing outside and warm inside by the fire)

Happy Weekend Everyone!

XOXO

INTUITIVE PAINTINGS

If you look on julie prichard's site...her latest on line course, with chris cozens'...you will see a preview of # 6 in the line up of lessons.

this is the one that i have fallen in love with...so in between portraits i am playing and digging INTUITIVE ART. something i was already in the midst of, but when i got to lesson #6...OH BABY, my fire was lit!

julie and chris' on line lessons are so fabulous...when i took julie's first one, i sold every painting that i painted after that...there was so much depth, so many layers and a truly different way of painting.

since loosening up and letting go, miracles and fun have happened over and over (certainly, not EVERY SINGLE TIME) and i am still on fire.

you can take a gander at julie's talent over at http://thelandoflostluggage.com

her classes stay up forever after you have taken them and they are extremely REASONABLE. i just got my computer back tonight. it was being held hostage while it was supposed to be tuned up, cleaned up, more room for more wonders...ha! they did nothing, and charged me nothing! live and learn!

i still can't leave messages on blogs (not that that had anything to do with the free tune up).

it's so discouraging.

DOES ANYONE HAVE A CLUE AS TO WHAT'S UP WITH THIS PROBLEM???

BLUE MUSIC ROOM

ENLARGE to see some layers...there are a LOT! Some more INTUITIVE paintings...this looks a might distorted as it isn't taped down TO the easel at the top.

i have just a few more changes and it's probably going to be titled the BLUE MUSIC ROOM :))

in my next post i'll tell you why and how this all started...it's not a big deal really, but then again YES IT IS, because i am obsessed in all good ways!

and....i can't leave messages on many of your blogs, it's not that i haven't been there...i have and tried...maybe it'll be time for me to change to another blog realm...hmmm!

I WISH YOU ALL A MARVELOUS DAY AND EVENING...

filled with music from ANYWhere...YOUR heart, soul, radio, birds, silence....

XOXO

Spirit Family and Clare?

i've been doing a lot of INTUITIVE painting since taking a class (more on that later). the class is not on INTUITIVE painting, but this has just been happening :))

clare- i have tried for several days to leave you a comment (long ones, heh heh) but blogger will not allow me in. this is what it states: "cookie value is null for FormRestoration". does anybody know how to fix this or get around this? it happens periodically, but then straightens itself out??? not this time, i'm in the dark and frustrated, i love talking to clare! xoxo

...so, we took a little trip down south from northern california.

i have seen so many different kinds of fruits and vegetables cruisin' down the freeway...but never carrots, there is a first time for everything!

this was the best shot i could get.

there is just something thrilling to me, ever since my childhood to see items from our good earth traveling far, to who knows where...!

...coming down from the tehachapai mountains, so barren, so beautiful!

i always love seeing these...

Tea bag girl :))..that's the background...

teabags that are painted, stamped and dyed...

very fun, and this is one i had buried, found and improved!

Have a MARVELOUS autumn weekend, FRIENDS one and all!

xoxo
