Greetings and Salutations!!! It’s been quite a while since I have written anything here. I wish I had started this in the beginning. Don’t know if it was that I didn’t think it would go this long. Though I did think it would go longer than most thought. Missed the ability to tell some amusing […]

Another Year Turns
Tis the end of a year. The first dawning breaths of a new one. Its been a very long year. A year of political and emotional unrest. It seems at times like we have taken so very many giant steps backward. Actually, we have. But, then again, we haven’t. Not in the truest sense. For […]
The Lost Art Of Communication – Safety Screens
I actually started this a while back from a different angle. I may add those parts in as serial installments at some time as I feel this is an ongoing subject that needs some serious pondering. So, aside from that little introduction, on with the piece. Communication has become a misnomer in our society anymore. […]
Camano Island Studio Tour 2017 – Day One
Every good journey should begin with a dinosaur. Yes, dear readers, dinosaurs do inhabit our island. Its a little known secret. Alas, we have droves of carnivorous hummingbirds that strip all the flesh from them and leave their skeletons scattered throughout the island. We have the BEST clouds here!

Presents?
And then there are those days when you look across the room and see this small beige fuzzy thing by your sliding door that looks like it has a tail. And there in her little warm bed is Little Misssy Princess Floofster Cassie SassyPants resting her chin on the side wall and giving you that […]
Because – Art and Starry Night!
Sometimes it seems there is just too much hate and ugliness in the world. Though there are many experts that continue to assert that in spite of what we see in the news, we are, in reality, becoming a more peaceful species. Maybe it is because we so love a good horror story, a scare […]
Imagine
My heart is just breaking. A man walked into a gay nightclub and killed 50 people and wounded at least 53 more. Total strangers. Not in a war zone, not in defense. Simply because they were gay and living out loud. They say they believe he is Muslim. But, that doesn’t matter. I have heard […]
