My valentine
9 feb 015 …. Could not resist
Here is our bird feeder snow from inside. Dana kindly cut eyeholes for me
And here is today’s extra foot. Enjoy!
The weather is becoming an issue
Even in here in our snow globe in the woods.
The bad part
Yesterday, one of our cats horked all over all my pants.
The good part
But then I got to go paint with my Tuesday painters group AND (shameless plug here) submit two big watercolors for the Cazenovia, NY Winterfest.
Today
The bad part
I just strolled into my studio to find water coming through the ceiling onto a pile of watercolor paintings.
The good part.
It’s fixed and this one is there at the Cazenovia Public Library!
Reception Thursday 4-6
Trying out Stillman and Birn paper
I bought a Stillman and Birn Gamma series sketch book. I’m in love.
Ink and coffee imaginary rocks.
Happy Groundhog Day
Snowing two inches an hour in here in our snow globe. Phil’s mitten.
Blog of this sunny day
Today no fancy dancin’
We lost one of our fathers to Alzheimer’s last year
We lost our Aunt Ami last week to Alzheimer’s disease
I lost the woman who introduced me to newspapers and journalism today
We lost our Aunt Dot today to dementia yesterday.
No words left, but I painted awhile. It helped.
Work in progress on the floor in the sun.
The full-moon effect
Mark Bialczak was asking people the other day what the full moon does to them. I said something about pushing me into my studio. Well, it’s up to three above zero now and my studio has a concrete floor. Soooooo, here’s another iPad moon
Yesterday, sunrise pasted me into my chair with iPad in lap. Yippee!
IPad painters are a somewhat goofy group where I fit, I think. Yesterday’s sunrise.

When people get killed for drawing, WTF?
Ink splotches with coffee
This my best effort today, fooling around with my beloved fountain pens and ink on some plate finish paper. I like this design so it may become a grownup painting. This sketch is just 4″ by 4″ or so.
Life is better than it has been. PTSD in a loved one is a constant balancing act.
The end for today
Easy b/w challenge today
It’s still snowing here at, oh, about an inch an hour. I am eternally grateful for having been the one to make sweet potato pies. We will survive!
Saturday blue, but I had a b/w assignment
An old friend has challenged me to a week of black and white.
Easy.
Black, night.
White, snow
So I painted with a wonderful Pilot refillable brush pen and coffee because I had coffee.
Then I removed the color.
Today was Friday. Still gray, but
What a sunrise!
