I started this painting in late 2006, making it the longest I have ever gone between starting and finishing a painting. It almost seems like longer, possibly because those three and a half years were the longest of my life. I have a hard time wrapping my brain around the changes in my existence since I started […]

Okay, okay, I admit it. I occasionally get choked up during "Total Eclipse of the Heart." Yes. I did grow up in the Eighties. Despite the best efforts of several people of very refined musical taste, I am still occasionally base. …I also have a hard time with "No Woman No Cry." If I have PMS and […]
So I come downstairs to check on the progress of dinner–Kevin’s out back with the dogs, the kitchen smells of garlic bread, and as I come around the corner, I discover Kevin’s youngest, standing straight up with his back pressed against the small swatch of wall on one side of the laundry door, staring intently at the […]
So Kevin started his new job today. It seems like an awesome job, he’s excited about it, and employment is a Good Thing.

As I wrote awhile ago, a painting of mine got into the Spectrum Annual this year! I had assumed that it was going to be the steampunk butterfly. I mean, that one got Boing-Boinged, I’ve sold a bunch of prints, it seemed like the logical choice. Nuh-uh. They picked the Rabbirds. I mean, it’s a good […]
Well, I had planned to dig another large hole today and plant a second wax myrtle, but on the way to get the shovel, I stepped on the edge of the concrete walkway wrong and took a header. I seem to take about one spectacular fall a year. 2007 was the best, I stepped on a […]
Right. Painting done. I think I need to go climb into the tub and maybe a glass of wine. Cattail Tea
