Bountiful One
It’s November which means it’s time to enjoy the Bountiful One. What in the world do I mean by Bountiful One? I am speaking of the colorful Persimmon. The native version of this plant is the Diospyros Virginiana and shazam, I would love to have one of these trees in our backyard. However, there are […]
Harvest For The World
I named this painting “Harvest for the World” but I could have named it so many other things. Like what? Well, “Twisted 2020” for the amazing twisted stem on the pumpkin and for the completely twisted experience of this pandemic-ridden and overwhelming year. But I decided to lean into the goodness of the Isley Brother’s […]
Rake Revolution
There’s a rake revolution happening right now! Can you believe it? There are actually people who have decided to forego the leaf blowing madness. What are the ramifications of this earthy, take back your auditory and sensory rights movement? Stay tuned for that gentle reader. First, let’s welcome newcomers and remind them what this blog, […]

But before I get too far ahead of myself, […]

(Mr Studly, by the way, completely agrees with the previous statement ;-D). But before I get too far ahead of myself, please let’s […]
Usual Suspects
In last week’s post, I describe my delight at the discovery of what now is this week’s usual suspects: kabocha squash and red pears. Oh la lah I am so excited to share some adventures in a new medium. But wait, dear reader, before I share all of that, let’s remind any new readers (welcome!) […]
Tipping Point
Hello dear reader! Do you have a feeling we have reached a Tipping Point? Good Goddess I hope we have…on so many fronts. Two things before I go much further: 1. what is a tipping point and 2. what is this blog, painting and post all about. Definition of Tipping Point Previously, I have written […]
Unity
How about a little unity? You may think, like me, that there’s little room for unity at this polarized point in time. And, you would be absolutely accurate and spot on. Which must be why we might want to reverse the trend and go with unity, eh? But before I get ahead of myself, I’ll […]
