Windblown

When I checked the porch this morning after last nights storm, I found this tiny leaf had been blown in from somewhere.

Saturday, Busy

Someone has to do it.

 

Last Friday in June

We're rapidly sliding into July. Where did June go? 

Sink Shots

This is my latest watercolor test paper. I use them to see what the color actually looks like on watercolor paper, before putting it on the actual work-in-progress. When I looked at it, I saw a bird. I added the eye.

Thursday Misc

Fruit or vegetable?

 

Unencumbered

"Not having any burden or impediment"

I am trying to paint in a more loose style, instead of trying to get a photographic representation. It isn't as simple as it sounds but I'm enjoying the effort. My early paintings were filled with detail. Now, I'm attempting to 'suggest' color, shapes, the thing. Whatever it is. 

Long ago

Crepe Myrtle

ah, summer. just get it over with.

 

Clouds and Gallus Gallus Domesticus

 

Limoni

Since I hadn't painted in months, I moved my art table to another place in my apartment. That lasted a couple of weeks. I've moved it all back this morning. I'm feeling a little painterly. 

These lemons were painted last year. I'm hoping the small sketchbook will be less intimidating. Fingers crossed.

 

Positivity

Every morning I watch the sunrise via several webcams/YouTube at the Outer Banks, Myrtle Beach, and South Ponte Vedra beach. This morning, I saw tracks at South Ponte Vedra. At first I thought they were atv tracks. But they are turtle tracks!  

No Kings

This is the time to be heard.

 

Monday Blues

When you're retired, Monday is just another day. It does, however, mean that the neighborhood is quieter.

Actually

 

June 3

Masks are back; at least for me. Especially since I had the flu a few weeks ago.

Pbase is, unfortunately, out. I'm not going to renew my membership. I joined in 2001, but I seldom post anything there and there isn't much activity. I have all of my galleries backed up. C'est la vie. 

 

Tales from my Porch

It seems I'm managing one post per month here. What would a photo of a shithole country look like? Because that's where I live now. 

Instead, here's a floral.
