The last roses of the year. 

A warm protected spot 

produced an extra gift of beauty
during this busy time.

My son came to help with sorting
and moving all my art books.
A huge job as most had to be
brought from the studio
and into the house...
up and down a flight of stairs.

He said he felt he had moved the
Library of Congress!

Anyway, they have been
all thinned down
to just under a hundred
of those friends I feel
 I cannot live without.
Downsizing bit by bit!!

A typical New Mexico door...

except this one was in Texas!!

I am always drawn to 

blue doors wherever I see them.

This place had lots

of cats hanging around 

and I attempted to paint them.

Notice the word

attempted...and notice,
 no cats!
Paint, scrape, paint, scrape.

Sigh.
But loved painting this anyway.

Wish I could wave a magic wand 
and restore everyone's homes
lost to fire or hurricane.
It is beyond my comprehension
the scope of what I am seeing.

Prayers to all and extra
gratitude
for those who help in such
dangerous situations
like the
 firefighters, policemen 
and other heroes.

But please...
also remember the 
voiceless, displaced animals.

The Blue Bow!

Blue Bow  

18"x24" oil on canvas SOLD

Artist Note

I am so busy dealing

with all the stuff

that goes along with 

selling a house,

 plus working,

that I have not been

 able to get around

to visit the blogs I love so much.

If you have not seen any comments then

please know, I will be back !!

My daughter is posting older

paintings of mine

 on Instagram and Facebook

 just to keep

the flow going.

This one was painted back when

I accepted commissions.

A friend's boyfriend surprised her

with this bouquet...

tucked inside the bow 

was an engagement ring!

Sweet!
