Animal love,
They love us as much as we love them
We same how help each other out and not know it till we stop and take the time to think about it.
Yes we feed the and clean then but am talking more then that
We play together, we sleep with are animals, cry with them. I know if on of my pass way I bury it in a ground in a special spot by a big rock.
They play with my kids and the help keep them safe

The Expanding Universe of Art

HI BEAUTIES! HAVE A COSMIC SUNDAY. SKY IS YOURS!

Art Inspired by Nature Blog

How is one supposed to feel, knowing that we, on our pinprick of our blue planet, in our speck of dust under the cosmic carpet of our milky way, are hurtling through space and towards infinity, with absolutely no consolation except the knowledge that it’s actually happening.

I guess in a way, the art world is like an expanding universe. As soon as you get sucked in to it, it seems like there’s a never-ending, spinning web of ideas, styles, names, name-dropping, brush-bashing and social media platforms that making your impact in it seems infinitely impossible. The more time goes on, the more new -isms crawl out of the woodwork, and all of a sudden your left wondering where your place in the art universe is. The further away the galaxy from us, the faster it appears to be moving. Just as distant ideas and desires appear to be slipping…

Oneiric; #2 Tempting

HI SISTERS! DON’T BE BLUE. LET THIS COLOUR ONLY FOR LOVELY FLOWERS. GOOD NIGHT, GOOD REST AND HAPPY DREAMS.

OverTheLower

She’d experienced all kinds of nervousness. Some hauntingly familiar ones were:
1. The seconds before getting her answersheet;
2. Jumping into the deep end;
3. Sleeping alone at night, and;
4. Cliffhangers.

But this— this was a whole new level of hopelessness.

Her heart had never been so frantic, so erratic, as it had been in this moment.

Why couldn’t he say it first? she cried.

The rain hitting the window dripped of indecisiveness, as the walls inside seemed to close on her. All too sudden, the room seemed too small to breathe in.

So many possibilities, with just one probable outcome. Some seemed appealing, and the rest…she tried not to think of.

It would’ve been so much better if he were the one that had to go through this…whatever this is.

If only…if only.

Her mind was a frizzle of emotions she didn’t know lived in her, her…

BARCELONA, AUG. 17th. 2017

HI FOLKS! BARCELONA IS A CITY THAT ONLY HAS FRIENDS.

WE DON’T WANT TO SHARE ENEMIES FROM OTHERS COUNTRIES OR SUPERPOWERS.

WE ONLY BELIEVE IN FRIENDSHIP AND VIOLENCE DOESN’T HAVE FUTURE BETWEEN OUR PEOPLE.

By Mola, Pier Francesco – Men lying on ground

Day 13 – Feathers

SO TRUE, DEAR SISTERS. AS FRIDA KAHLO SAID, WE CAN FLY. HAVE A NICE DAY AND USE YOUR IMAGINATION.

Inspiration in Focus

“Feet, what do I need you for when I have wings to fly?”  –Frida Kahlo

Anyone else dream of flying high above this great big world, seeing what birds can see?

I have always been drawn to feathers as a found object that connects us humans to our feathered friends.  Although I can definitely work on identification, I do love the idea that they came from above in the magical habitat of the sky. Osprey are back in the area, and I am keeping my eye out for one of their feathers in our yard.

May your day be magical.

Beginning Watercolor

HI SISTERS ! SOME WATERCOLORS CAN BE A GOOD REASON TO CELEBRATE ANOTHER NEW DAY!

Leslie White

The Beginning Watercolor class also ended this week. I only had three students for this session. That meant we were able to cover quite a bit of material in a six week session.

Gayle Brown2

The first week we learned about the watercolor paper (we use Arches 140lb coldpress right from the start), brushes and practice painting wet on dry, wet in wet, and dry brushing. We practiced washes and compared mixing colors on our palettes and mixing colors on the paper. Their first assignment was to paint a back lit scene.

Gayle Brown

The second week we learned how to create trees in different ways. This included using a sponge, pontillism and scumbling. I also introduced liquid frisket and showed different ways it could be used.

Kathy Gordon

On the third week we talked about man-made objects and buildings, perspective and how to grid our paper to assist with…
