Georgia 2


Georgia 2

Every day it feels like we are getting more and more settled into our new home and community. Little Georgia is going through the same process. One thing about adopting and OLDER dog is that you get to find out some "tricks" or behaviors they carry over from their other families..like we just discovered that Georgia knows how to "sit" and "shake hands"..she also has a bad habit of snapping if she is unhappy about something.....:(

Post -editing some of my images and trying to find some time to begin pastel and watercolor painting from some of the photo references. Holiday weekend with the Group Home Ladies ( only two) shoud allow some artmaking time.

Time in the Desert is so Healing. The snow was on the Mountains and the WIND in the air. My eyes filled with the sandtones and pastel colors that last for a while after arriving home. What fun to fantasize about having a permanent Winter Retreat there. Desert Solitude

Just got back fro Vacation in Death Valley and Joshua Tree. I'll post some pictures as soon as i get unscattered enough enough to post-process them.

So already my passions are showing. ART and NATURE...a link that will carry thru this Blog.

Happy Spring
