It’s been awhile since I started something new. I forget that all of my illustrations were once single paintings that seemed to paint themselves. I mean not entirely of course, but I felt led along, certain things came up, little surprises here and there. The beginning of any painting is fun. Struggle does eventually enterContinue reading “Things I Forget”

Holiday
What is your favorite holiday? Why is it your favorite? Holidays are meant to be a break from day to day, I think. My favorite holidays were the summer weeks or months we spent at our family cottage. My grandfather was a key part of those days.
I may be
I have been so wrapped up in my books lately that I may have forgotten why I ended up writing them in the first place. One word: ART I didn’t grow up thinking I want to become an artist. On the contrary, I think I was reluctantly born one and then spent a lot ofContinue reading “I may be”

We’d talk on our errands, we’d talk while making supper andContinue reading “Anything?”
