No new sales for a bit now at the Old Bakery & Emporium, but given an epic pandemic death rate December into late January ( and continuing at an unacceptable rate even now ), the colleges and schools keeping students off campus til just lately, an almost as bad winter storm as last year (…

Aging Gracefully – During Covid-19 – The Earth is a Garden: My Most Viewed Image this Week @FineArtAmerica June 2020
I’ve been uploading my paintings since starting watercoloring (late Dec ‘19) recently by completed progression, with The Earth is a Garden one of the more recent.

Aging Gracefully – During Covid-19 – My Paintings on Fine Art America
It’s a tough switch for me, picking up brush with paint vs picking up a camera. Switching from the exactness of line and light captured (even if framed by my eye) by a machine, exquisite as it is — to the amorphous shifting intangible (even if more powerfully felt) world inside me.

Aging Gracefully – During Covid-19 – A New Series, Serial Series’
Am I a Serial Serialist, lol? 😊 Since “way” back, I’ve tried to create a series I can stick with, and obviously, didn’t. The topic would run out of juice. Or more accurately, I would. It was time for me to switch gears to another creative avenue, the way I switch art styles to stay…

A Walk Among the WildFlowers – New Watercolor on Absorbent Ground, May 2020
As one can tell by my photo below, I took a few liberties, but to some extent, that happens whether I plan it or not, lol 😂 But I like the result too much to alter anything on it. Another version, another time, will elicit a different response, and I do think this is one…

Covid-19 Visit to Lady Bird Wildflower Center May 2020 💐

Aging Through Covid-19, May 03, 2020 – Watercolor Still Life Painting Updated

Flowering at Dawn – New Watercolor with Absorbent Ground Painting Progress Update 03.13.20 Plus Thoughts on the Virus Crisis 😊
Having interests, passions even, one can pursue, and let’s say pursue relatively easily, is important for everyone, but especially, I think, for young children and for older adults. I’ll let each person decide what an older adult, or a young child, lol, is, age-wise 💕

Closed my eBay Listings, For Now 03.11.20
In my continuing effort to grapple with getting a handle on my time, combined with the fees and lack of sales, I’ve suspended my listings on eBay for now. To be fair, due to time choices, I didn’t do as much advertising and social media as I could have, at least without taking more time…

Painting Update – My Lost Edges and Masking Fluid Ideas 02.18.20
This weekend, I reblogged two really interesting articles on the aesthetic or idea of employing lost edges, where the boundaries of given recognizable objects meld into the color space around it (side plane, background, etc). I’d already haphazardly begun working with the idea, wondering if I was off-base to even be considering it, when I…

15 Things You Might Not Know About Monet’s Water Lilies, by Kristy Puchko 🎨
“This post itself was interesting to me beyond just being about Monet. Though I knew quite a few things in the post already, there were several I wasn’t. For instance, I’m fairly familiar with the opening rounds of the days and years of Impressionism and their impact then and to now on art and artists….”

Showing & Playing My Poster Poker Hand
“It’s been awhile since I had the desire to go through the process and expense of choosing and creating a catalog of on-hand prints I’d like to sell.”
-
Pushed Around By PDFs For My Posters, lol 😂
“The culprit was the non- poster version of Theatre of Light, and honestly, I never figured out what exactly the problem was, but – once I created my PDF from the jpg file I’d created from the flattened tif for my photo, vs from the flattened tif file, I got the smaller file I wanted.”

Thoughts About Making Some of My New Posters with (mat-like) Borders
“Creating digital mats for my own images also has 3 distinct pluses! 1. I can indulge my creativity w/out as much restraint. Today’s ink colors for printing art and photos far exceeds the colors of physical mats available.“

If I’m Gonna Make Posters (among other categories of prints)…What Do You Think of These?
