My kids gave me flowers & a card this morning. They were really beautiful (and what they’ve always gotten me, a tradition) I didn’t expect anything else. The hugs that came with them were the best part. My daughter started making lunch while i was reading in the living room. My daughter loves to cook…

Cats are smarter than dogs
This is Juju (short for Judah). Stunning, isn’t he? Juju loves art. I have a dog too…he has no interest in art. He likes to lie under his hanging leash, trying to guilt me into another walk. No matter how many times i’ve walked him. I can also find him chewing rocks in my backyard….
cat won’t let me art
i have a commission to do, a beautiful little girl. Medium requested is pastel. As soon as i put the photograph on the table. Judah sits on it. Above is the photograph i took of her. Judah did leave me in peace once he realized how dusty pastels are. He knew i was finished &…
who else has lived a life just like yours?

walking around Avondale
Avondale, Alabama is a very eclectic place.
the astronaut was dancing with aliens
I gotta say this was the least boring place i’ve ever been. The people here were very comfortable being themselves. I loved watching this woman dance. She was great fun. The bee people were there for the ‘bee petting zoo’. And people think Birmingham Alabama is made up of straight laced Bible loving people. Here…
Oliver meets the big dogs
I think Nikon should test their VR NIKKOR lens in low light, while holding onto a puppies leash to see if the VR (vibration reduction) really works. Again, i am posting images that are out of focus, but they are too cute not to show. Even though my pup looks… …I got Oliver from the…
tulip scoops
I loved walking on flower petals. Its a bit magical to have flowers beneath your feet.
