More end of the year updates
Open Says Me
This webstuff looks easy when Gregg and Forrest do it! I try. These are two more paintings that I didn’t post as I went along. Sounds like a New Years Resolution in the offing.
Tidying up 2023 art works
Forrest and Gregg have helped me update my website. Check it out. My bad, no blog posts for too long. I have been working. Here are a few pieces that you may not have seen. Echoes Encore is 17″x108″. I have posted half here. Next is photo of me with work in progress. Verdant is 46″x54″. Spring and summer garden.
orphans from the compost heap
I never was able to grow an avocado tree from a seed. My compost heap did. I dug it up, and put it in a bucket, to go inside for the winter. A while later another plant presented itself in that pot,
a squash of some kind. This morning the squash bloomed. Summer color in Dec.!
Thoughts in Neon Green Dye
I go to a Meditation class at the Senior Resource Center. They always have boxes of stuff to give away. Usually it’s zucchini, or out of date potato chips. The time they had 5 bottles of Neon Green Dye, no one took them for weeks. I am invested in reusing and re-purposing, rather than throwing things away (where is away?) I have used this dye in nine experimental pieces, so far. The Senior Center is displaying four of the paintings.
Flowers, again
Karen gave me some bulbs of the Susana Lily. It is brown with orange highlights. I used to paint a lot of flowers. I think this is not the same old thing.
