When is the last time you took a risk? How did it work out? Again with risks. Am I risking now? Every time I start planning a new project and then start running through the steps of doing it. Even just setting up to do it. It all feels like I’m risking something. My ownContinue reading “Risky Art Projects?”

Four square house
Describe a risk you took that you do not regret. I wouldn’t consider myself a risk taker, but sometimes, I can’t help myself. Once I bought a house in a place I had never lived. I’d visited. The house was hundred years old and adorable, but nothing much had happened to it, besides shag carpeting.Continue reading “Four square house”
Plant Power
We have been working for days on pulling out this azalea bush. Its all dried out dead branches, but yikes, the roots are strong. My hands are nicked, blistered and tired. My back feels like I’ve done a lot of digging. (We both have). Jumping on a giant crowbar helped pry the stubborn roots up.Continue reading “Plant Power”
Attic Space
I’m revisiting my attic studio. It s still cold outside, but the attic is lovely! I have so many ideas! The floor is plywood. I was just at this discount store and they have FLOORING… Even if I get the cheapest of the cheap and only enough to cover the main walking area, It willContinue reading “Attic Space”
Advanced Art
Write about a time when you didn’t take action but wish you had. What would you do differently? I wish I had gone to grad school. Of course it was art. No one would have thought an advanced degree in art would have served any purpose whatsoever, at least not in my family, (my patentsContinue reading “Advanced Art”

My little daredevil brother. Oh man. If it was dangerous, he tried it, if he could get into trouble,Continue reading “Me?”
Wanting
I want to paint. I have this idea to go by the fabric store that I keep driving past to see if they sell canvas at a decent price. Or maybe I’ll go get one of those four packs of stretched 16×20 canvases they always have on sale at Michael’s. Somehow, this is taking overContinue reading “Wanting”
Dock saga
It’s been a few days of trying to gather all the pieces of the demolished dock. Dig some out of the sand, float them back to the property. The neighbors dock made it through winter storms because of it’s deeply set poles. The dock guy knew how to detach and maneuver all the parts. TodayContinue reading “Dock saga”
Walking
How do you unwind after a demanding day? A walk. Yesterday was one. It was pretty cool as the sun was settling, a walk with the pink and orange back drop was perfect. Sitting all day in a hospital can be draining…relief that all is well in the end and the worst thing is thatContinue reading “Walking”
Using…
How do you use social media? How? Well. I’m trying to learn how to use it. I appreciate all the promises I hear, that of if I just do this one thing or this other one thing, it will all come together perfectly. Hashtags, algorithms, templates etc… Part of me thinks I will never fullyContinue reading “Using…”
