Crystals again

Painting today. Remember those crystals I’d wanted to work on? Well, I continued to experiment with that. This is a painting I’d started awhile back and I knew it would have crystals in it, but I was brave enough to finish it today. Here it is: Now, there’s a thunderstorm coming in and the pets … Continue reading Crystals again

A little thought for tonight

There’s a little star out there. Its light takes an extraordinarily long time to reach your eyes for you to see it. If it’s light keeps shining straight until it reaches your gaze, what do you think its gravitational pull can do to you? Who says that everything isn’t connected?

Oh, the numbers

My “fun with markers” evening I had planned last night didn’t work out so well. It took too long to get the markers started, one of them didn’t want to work at all, and one began bleeding. I only got 4 markers going, so you can see that I didn’t have a high success rate … Continue reading Oh, the numbers

Sketchbook

I’m about to go play with some markers. But I remembered that before I did that, I needed to write my blog. Since I had to grab my sketchbook, I thought I’d share an image I have planted for a painting someday. It’s the picture above. Well, I’m off now to play with markers. I’ll … Continue reading Sketchbook

A new paranormal mystery coming

Did you hear the crash? That was the sound of Thor’s hammer dropping. So why did he drop his hammer? Well, because I finally got Ring of Stars up and it can be preordered on many sites now. Thor was just shocked that I got it done that he dropped Mjolnir. Let’s just hope it … Continue reading A new paranormal mystery coming

More charcoal trees

I finished the last of 6 charcoal tree drawings at the show today. Then I tried to write, but it was too hot under the canopy and sitting outside was hard to do. Yesterday, it was cold and we had a wind which kept it chilly throughout the day. Today, we got heat and no … Continue reading More charcoal trees

Charcoal drawings

While out at the show today, a couple suggested that I watch The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society because movie was about a writer. Netflix claimed that it had a 55% chance that I’d like it. This is what happens when your children have ruled your queue for years. I did like the … Continue reading Charcoal drawings

Show time

Hwy93 Vendor show Saturday (from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.) and Sunday (from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.). I’m all set up, but I certainly am sore today. I have Dragons of Wellsdeep back in stock. So, I hope to see you out at Mountain View Barn just outside of Jerome, Idaho tomorrow.

The way

This is a reminder: Action. Action wins over most everything else. There’s a lot of people in the world who try to point the path out to others who long to be on that path. Many times, they are trying to find the way themselves, but they are just a little further along, so they … Continue reading The way

The basics

“Don’t become good at something you don’t want to do.” That’s an anonymous quote I’ve run into twice lately. The universe is trying to tell me something. And, it’s too late. At first when I ran into this quote this morning, I got a little upset. I’ve become good at bookkeeping and I felt for … Continue reading The basics
