hey there, all, say, many of the pics are now starting to show...


say, mtmun, i did not KNOW you had a pic of you painting, :))
so fun to see!!

i love the coyote's singing... that is my favorite work, by you, so as i 've seen...



say, mouse, just saw liz's creation of flowers... very nice...
thanks for sharing... would have been so wonderful if she'd kept it up...
but traveling through live, on creations adventures, leads us all to many things... i wish my dad had kept painting, too, he only did a small handful...



say, this just in...

well, as to the 'questionable art' ... at least his work DOES look like
it is a private moment, as well it should be... (due to the blinds and the light and such... and it makes it more man-woman natural, as it is meant to be...


also, trying to remember what else just showed up... hmmm...
oh, the GOLDFINCH... very sweetly gentle painting...

thanks for sharing...
:)

Neebee, very sweet story about Ruth, very touching. Art is a gift no doubt.


Phylp, really like the cohesive color of the first one: great sky! Nice job.

hey there say, paul... i know, it was somehow just meant to be...
she wrote such a neat note, and it was so strange when she was gone... :(


they both belonged together though...

oddly, i just learned of an older couple in their late 80-90s,
and the man died... well, his wife died a few days after him... they had
a double service... even the grown kids and grandkids just knew it was
supposed to be...


thanks for sharing, paul... gifts, yep, that is so true as to that art in our heart...

(yours, by the way, always reminds me of my mom... we loved the calif foothils, etc... had many little walks and wild live fun, thanks so much for sharing it here, as, i can't get there to the neat calif galleries that are in many neat places)...

Thanks for the kind comments, friends. I tend more to the abstract, but my husband said "paint me something with clouds", hence...

Neebee, nice new work. I'm amazed at your productivity!

Real nice spectreman.

Wish I could see your painting photos a little larger neebee. Really like the coloration in the last few, and the egret w/waterfall. That one reminds me of some of those classic audubon paintings with the landscapes/habitats in the background.

Keep painting phylp! Liking those minimalist landscapes.

(Tiki needs to post up a pic of a sweet little landscape he did, of the east side if memory serves, and purchased recently by micronut.)

hey there say, phylp and nate...

thank you, very kindly... for the mentioned notes...

landscapes and birds, and such, are what i always did, and know well, the hows and etcs there... and enjoy them so much... (have done the design and abstract type things, too--love designing, as well)...

best, though:
like the birds that nate mentioned... and clouds and such and trees...
those were my specialties, back in the day...


however,
i am trying to master this new portrait stuff, and it is a challenge, :O i miss doing the other art, of course, but enjoy this new adventure and hope
that someday, i can blend them all together, :))

who knows, child, bird in garden...

or hiker, a gal or guy, happening upon a sweet deer, :)) in the midst
of a slightly rain day, :))


but, someday, i will get it, it is seeping into the ol brain,
little by little, even as the landscapes have, :)


will try to pull them out of the ol' pocket on occasion,
as i am doing with the horse and the elk pictures...
and my NEAT giant blue heron, that is still on hold, a bit...

just started to 'revive him' :)
will post him, again, soon...




sorry, nate, i am dial up, so i can't post larger... :(

This is an "Artist's Proof" of an etching done by Russ McLean (Life Is A Bivouac.) Our Birthdays are 5 days apart. He gave it to me back in 1972 on my birthday. It commemorates the friendship the Dennis Hennek, Russ, and I developed while learning to climb and living our lives beyond the climbing realm. I recently emailed the image back to Russ and Dennis. Russ said he vaguely remembers the piece. Dennis shot me back a pic of Rock #1 at Stoney Point, saying, "This is where three friends played."


Pic of Rock #1 at Stoney Pt. that Dennis sent me:

Just putting the finishing touches on this one after it sat for nearly six months. Love that image of Rock #1 out at Stonypoint... spent so many hours on that thing, funny how a rock can be a kind of friend or companion. Can still feel all those moves and it's been so many years.

Yes, Neebee, art has the ability to touch our hearts and souls. And yes, Paul, such images can evoke our deep, bodily memories. Lovely painting.

One morning I got on my bike to head to work and found an artist out on the street.
She was painting my house.


Her name was Denise.
