This is part of my modern day muses. If necessities cost the same for everyone, how do women live on .77 on the dollar? This is just the beginning of her hair. I lived in Dallas for awhile. This girl is going to have BIG hair.
Gorgon
I found these round pieces of plywood at the Habitat Resale shop. I also ran across and idea in an old journal of the Muses. So I have nine rounds and I’m referring to the 21st century muses. Polyhymnia is the muse of womanly things, but thinking of how to live on 77 cents on a dollar, with the cost of necessities not the least bit easier on the female side, the muse had become a Gorgon. The kids encyclopedia’s from the library on snakes was both cool and CREEPY. Thanks to the Fines Creek Branch of the Haywood Public Library.
Muse of Democracy
I’m not sure what the job of my 21st century muses is, but everybody’s getting new titles and job descriptions. The board is round. Democracy is hard work.
Piercing the botanic
I’m pushing this one.
Freedom
I had a painting that I felt obligated too. Today it disappeared under this one. Too early to tell, but I’m glad the other one is gone.
Pileated woodpecker
It’s out of focus, but I didn’t want to scare her off. She’s exploring our split rail fence for goodies. They say that in 2050 most people will live in cities. Good! Leave more room for her and me.
Mucking with nature
A farmer is the only business person that you interact with three times a day. Giant agro companies force farmers to buy their trade- marked seeds. Here are some ideas of what is pushing the idea very far, in a scary way.
Too pretty
The painting is pretty, too pretty, but not very interesting. So far the additions are temporary, but I’m going to make them permanent. Haven’t thought of a title yet. Digital hostas?
is nature enough?
The music and publishing industries have been forced to change because of the digital age. Is painting …old school?
paint or color
Just layin’ em down, one foot in front of the other.
