This came up today. I was probably working on it in September several years ago. I had an idea that as a published book it might go out into the world and be helpful. I didn’t know how or what that might look like, especially in the beginning. Years of work later it eventually didContinue reading “A Long Time Ago”

Painting…
Still obsessed. I can’t help myself. I love my current subject.
Then and Now
Hmm… where to start. I mentioned a while back that I taught a meditation class. I am less than qualified to teach anyone how to meditate. I can barely sit still, much less sit in meditation. At least that was who I was when I started. I used to teach art. This will be myContinue reading “Then and Now”
Well
We made it this far. I guess I can be thankful for that And all the lessons I may have learned. Did you guess that its raining? Again And unseasonably cold? And has been off and on (raining) between suffocatingly humid heat all summer. Not to mention that the biting invisable bugs are back. InContinue reading “Well”
What Do I Think Happened?!
About a two weeks ago I got a new floor. The weekend before an outdoor shower was enclosed. The next day, walls were skim coated and finished. The day after that a prefabricated garage was purchased. Next came cabinets, one at a time. As usual with our own projects, we are making it up asContinue reading “What Do I Think Happened?!”
A Find
This must be an East coast boater thing. I’ve never heard of it before, but everyone I mention it to, has. I’m the odd man out, because I didn’t know about these giant blocks of styrofoam. They look like ancient old trash that we found in the crawl space under the house. What a surprisingContinue reading “A Find”
Happening
We have had a ongoing dialogue with the town over building permits. We now have a good education about what can and cannot be done on a property. Neighbors have been six years trying to get a remodel approved. Its a thing. We also have had many back and forth conversations regarding building, water, electricityContinue reading “Happening”
Its a Good Day
Its warm, not raining, (though my garden and I genuinely appreciate a good summer rain), Its not hot, not windy or humid. It’s lovely. Also, I’m up in my attic studio starting yet another octopus painting. Listening to something uplifting, while decent music plays from somewhere else. Later, I’ll end up at the beach, probablyContinue reading “Its a Good Day”
Art!
So I am enjoying my ‘octopus period’ Even if no one else seems to get it I am oddly inspired to make painting after painting of… well… octopus after octopus I’m sure my housemates think its crazy. And maybe it is. What I find interesting about myself, is how I can’t really get out ofContinue reading “Art!”
Retrograde
I am not at all informed about where the planets are in the cosmos. I’m not even sure which ones are still planets, but lately I’ve been hearing a lot about Mercury going into retrograde. So I looked it up. ‘retrograde’ means what you think. Something moving in reverse. Backwards. Not forward. Besides being aContinue reading “Retrograde”
