Random Thoughts 2019
I took a bit of a hiatus from all things social media, during the month of December, choosing to spend time with family, decorate for Christmas, bake and do other fun things. I took many photos of the decorations and trees but haven't really felt compelled to share them. My house is on the darkish side during … Continue reading Random Thoughts 2019
Trees, Carolina Beach, and Turkey!
Can you believe that Thanksgiving is almost here...only two days! I thought I was so ahead of the game but realize there is much left to do. I'm hosting for a few family members this year.

Heritage Series 1
Life can really get busy and it seems like mine has been that way all year! I have spent a good bit of time getting my house in order but I still have much to do. I am trying to simplify which means shedding layers of things that I don't need and many that I … Continue reading Heritage Series 1
Raphael, Archangel
This is my latest piece added to Series 52 (a piece of artwork each week for 52 weeks. ) I am terribly behind because I took a break while my husband was having and recuperating from back surgery.
