In MY LIFE

In my life:
  I've loved
  I've lost
  I've missed
  I've hurt
  I've TRUSTED,
  I've made mistakes

But, most of all I've LEARNED!

Just had a memory maker with a 13 year old Grandson (Hix and Amy's).  He had a project for school to interview someone.  We had a cocoa and cookie "tea party" up in my treehouse studio for over 2 hours.  He, Braxton, asked some interesting and thought provoking questions.  If I had not been keeping a journal with a young woman friend, Paula, for the past 11 years, the questions would have needed much more thought time.  But, because Paula and I ask anything and everything, we have actually done some organizing of our life memories.  What a wonderful treasure to have both of these people, Grandson Braxton and friend Paula. in life.


Just sent two paintings to an International and National Show.  Very happy they got into the exhibition, and surprised that this one made it.

So Very True this QUOTE BY EINSTEIN

Weak people get revenge.

Strong people forgive.

Intelligent people ignore.

Did this sitting in by the TV, rather than up in treehouse.  Wanted to stay nearer to dear dog, Trudy.  How true it also is that we dog owners wish we were half as good as our dogs believe us to be.

50 YEAR CELEBRATION

DON'T KNOW MANY GALLERIES CELEBRATING 50 YEARS OF BEING IN BUSINESS!  but Southwest Gallery is doing just that.

As a means of celebration, the artists that have been with the gallery are doing a 25 by 25 painting and the gallery is framing it and then it will be for sale for 50% off the normal asking price of that particular artist.  Here is my 25 by 25 painting.
