TAKING CHANCES...

 Most of you know me well enough, TO KNOW that i wasn't fishing for Anything!!!

on my last post ;)

AND

THANK YOU

Lisa DiNunzio

Sharon Tomlinson

and

Anita (castles and crowns)

I LOVED

and

APPRECIATED

your words

TREMENDOUSLY.

 and here's what I came up with...

1. maybe i'll just post once a month

2. I really want a free website with my work AND BLOG on it

(but have to find help for that)
3. yes Sharon...it is a good way of keeping a journal and easier!

4. I just read on another artist's blog, a comment someone wrote;

(this is what prompted my post)

she said; "my 5 yr old can paint like you do"

I gasped...I have never had a nasty comment like this (whew)

and the artist's retort;

"then maybe you should sell your 5 yr old's art work and when he gets a blog, please give me his address"

sooo...

I posted on Face Book about this and

I said;

"maybe some people find it easy to jump off a cliff, take major chances, and bare their very soul for the public, I dunno' do you"

 

pretty much word for word...

DWELLING ON THE POSITIVE

over here.

 

and

THANK YOU AGAIN FOR YOUR FEEDBACK LADIES!

XOXOXO

BE WELL...BE HAPPY...

 

I am thinking...have been thinking for a long while to stop blogging.

There are so many other avenues now and it's beginning to seem like this does not bring the delight it used to bring...we'll see...

 as I was painting this the other night just before the sun went down...
this happened...
I had to run outside then and take photos of the sundown,
the INCREDIBLE sundowns!
I finished her in the morning and
SHE is at the bottom of this post ;)
her words read;
"GRATITUDE LIST
no distractions"

IRONIC and HUMOROUS









 

this is a piece I have been slaving over...

18" X 24" X 2"

 

 

 

 

 

 

 





 

 

I am combining the 2 classes I've been trying to take,

in between family fun, company, and company and

whew...just when we thought we were alone again...

more company (not that we don't love it/them)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

we were so sad to have Cookie leave, but we all had a WONDERFUL

time with her,

ALONE, and together...that's our

HUGE LOVING FAMILY!

 

 

 

 

 

 



A FRIEND of OURS gave us a ton of bird seed,

this sock filled with thistle seed

and some bird feeders!

As if we don't have enough birds around here, NATURALLY...

in the spring time it sounds like a

BIRD SANCTUARY...

a crack up and wonderful the

CACOPHONY at it's best!!!

 

 

 



and then there are the SUNSETS

OVER AND OVER

that I just can't stop from photographing

they are magnificent and I have to

SHARE.

They need no other words...

 

 

 

 

 



 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I so miss all the discussions and sharing that blogging used to bring...

not that I don't have some loyal lookers...I love you and your words always!

I am guilty myself, if that's what you call it for not perusing other's...

so as I say...we shall see, sometimes things are just meant to be.

 

I hope this finds everyone well and creating!
