Needles Pins and Paints: February 2013
http://needlespinsandpaints.blogspot.com/2013_02_01_archive.html
Needles Pins and Paints. Life is about art, it is about creativity, it is about seeing past the small picture and looking at the "big picture" - it involves taking chances and charting a course without getting caught up in the destination and excluding the journey. Sounds simple, doesn't it? I had an epiphany when I was around 17 (a lifetime ago) and realized that "life is only as complicated as you make it out to be in order to believe that you have accomplished something." Think about it. . .

For Love of a Gray Horse: January 2013
http://grayhorsedesigns.blogspot.com/2013_01_01_archive.html
Sunday, January 13, 2013. Warning Signs by Kathi Peters. Love this painting by my extremely talented friend, Kathi Peters. Her website where you can see more of her absolutely wonderful work, http:/ kathipeters.com/. And her blog, http:/ www.cobcottage.blogspot.com/. If I weren't a perpetually broke and drowning in debt artist myself, I would own this because it reminds me of Danny and something that happened this morning. I whistled and Danny came running with me yelling the entire time, "Be careful!

Friday, November 21, 2014. Some Exciting News and Some New Work.

The book's author is renowned UK artist and art blogger Katherine Tyrrell. Now I am very happy to announce that I did indeed make the cut and some of my work found on the pages of an internationally published book! And North Light Books. Blue Ribbon - 10x8 painte...

And have found one I really like,. Just big enought for me,. It will be a new life of art. Where I'm free from cooking and maintaining. A home. Somehow the two don't. Go together, cooking. At least not for me. When I am painting I get totally engrosed. Forgetting the time, forgetting to eat. I do eat a good protein rich. I began ...

Sunday, March 30, 2014. More Snow, More Lambs, and a Video! If my calculations are correct, today is our 124th day of winter and we are enjoying yet another snowstorm. This must be pretty close to a record, I would think. I made the mistake of walking out to our back pasture this morning to get a shot of the farm. I should have gone on skis because the snow was over my boots. As you can see, even my dog wasn't sticking around. And now for the exciting art related news:. Links to this post. March arrived ...
