Changes are Upon Us

I am surprised how cold it is here, and my studio is freezing

Furry sweater to the rescue 

It was just time for a Talenti Gelato break

The Coronavirus is getting more real

Last coffee with a friend. Reality and start doing some planning

Last trip to the grocery store for us, since we are of a certain age

The garden is flourishing! This will be my great refuge

People are going crazy with hoarding. Making plans

I am happy that I am able to walk my block everyday

Went to my studio. Totally reorganized our food pantry

Last field trip to get my MIL’s piano moved to our house

It’s a beautiful piece of furniture! 


I am not going her everyday, but having a choice makes it so much better. I work alone in a concrete shoe box in an industrial park. Other artists are there also and we meet in the parking lot about 10 feet apart. It’s nice to have another option. Be well everyone. I am counting on you.

Getting back to it!

Here I am back at it. Not in my studio yet. Recovering from surgery and a virus 



Revisiting old art work from 2012 when Girl Scouts celebrated 100 years!

Blooms from the garden 

Brief visit to my studio and it was freezing cold

Having some slight cabin fever

Follow up surgical appointment went well!

I asked the question on social media if I should keep this going after three months

Me in the midst of this amazing orange tree in my MIL’s backyard 




The stash wall in my studio

First day back in my studio with layers of warm clothes



I’ve been working on this wall quilt a bit. Using Hopscotch and this digital panel on of of my watercolors 

Finally made a loaf of sourdough!

Took a wee bit of a break from this process, but now I am back. Also back to the gym.

Six Weeks out and Almost Seven

Pictures from my lap, since I spend a lot of time sitting down with my feet up!

Making small strides here and there



Daughter home for Thanksgiving gave me much joy 





Went to the movies and out to dinner!

And feeling the results from my fun day yesterday!

These are the sketchbooks that I am using for my journey. Moleskine Storybook 



Feeling a little defeated, but it’s going to be a new day tomorrow!
