Yesterday was a small but significant day in our move-prep days, I took down the remainder of our paintings and pictures from the walls.
Some of the areas, like one of the hallways, is even more desolate-looking afterward, lol! But I forgot to take a “pre” pic 😊
And If a picture can say a thousand words, the “after pics” should include “and the use of a thousand calories” lol!
Here’s another with “some” of the pics still up —

And then after —
Stark!
But, we are very much looking forward to placing them back up in our new place late next week ♥️ Including places like Zilker Botanical Garden!
Stay well everyone! Enjoy what one can, relish what one can – it’s worth it!
Often enough anyway 😊

- May 18, 2022 – Places In or Near Austin Texas You Can See and Buy My Prints ( Art and Photography ) #PrimalGallery #OldBakery&EmporiumPrints have consistently out-sold my originals if for no other reasons than they are less expensive and usually have more items to choose from. Not bad reasons at all 😊 What I want to do now though is, begin to –
- May 17, 2022 – I Have a Lot of Happenings ( art & personal ) This Week, But Still Finding Moments To Start a New Painting : Morning’s PromiseIt’s nice to dance the surface of my canvas as needed. And able ☺️ And right now, a light step, at an easy pace, may give me the time – and energy – to get more than a handful of other needed things also done this week. Not a bad compromise. For now 😊
- May 16, 2022 – New Diptych : “Freedom” Almost Finished, Panels Need Signing ( front & back )And what I’ve come across figuring out how to make prints of this that folks can work with, ie, close to or within standard size dimensions, was how to get a 22×28 image convert into – in 2 examples – an 8×10 or 12×18, and I came up with this as a starting prototype….
- May 15, 2022 – My Most Viewed Image this Past Week @FineArtAmerica, “Spring Rising”I’d done a lot of deep or darker night-like paintings for a bit, so it felt pretty nice to lighten up my palette for awhile. Working back & forth, from the two approaches – playing the potential good from both approaches seems to suit my Libra middle, lol!
- May 14, 2022 – My 1st Classical Stretch Workout with Miranda Esmonde-White ( via YouTube ) in Many Months!Though similar to SilverSneakers’ classes, Miranda’s classes focus largely on making the fascia network in our bodies more fluid. Some movements are very similar, but more extended, dance-like, reflecting Miranda’s ballerina and dance background!
- May 13, 2022 – “Angel” in AVAA’s 1st Austin Art Space Gallery and Studio Group Show in a Long Time!Just a very quick post to announce that my 18×24 inch acrylic on stretched canvas, Angel – has been accepted into Austin Visual Arts Association’s ( AVAA) 1st group show since ( I believe ) the pandemic. Definitely been a long time coming and feels great to be able to be showing with this long time Austin art association again! 😊
- May 12, 2022 – Updated My #Twitter Header Image and Pinned TweetThough Twitter’s future is up in the air, or ether, or virtual landscape; and my own “footprint” there and social media in general is micro-whatever, lol! — it’s still my micro existence, and I want to care for it best I can 😊

Thanks again, everyone! 😊

Ahh, moving! I’ve done it so many times, and it’s always a chore, but it’s also exciting to get to make the new place home again! I hope everything goes smoothly for you!☺

Loved the idea of keeping a documented account of something as important and transcendent as a move. Makes me think that a few years ago when we moved back to Spain I lost that opportunity, though the images of every step we took are etched in my mind. Best of luck Felipe and I wish you and your wife many many years of happiness in your new home 🏠,
FBC.
