  • A Little Fishy

    On the first day of our Maui trip, we went on a 6 hour snorkeling cruise with the Pacific Whale Foundation.  I brought a disposable underwater camera with me and just got the photos back today.  They don't do justice to how beautiful and clear the water was, but it is nice to have a

  • Flowers & Birds

    Compared to the snowy landscape I have at home, the flowers in Maui are so lovely!  I’m back now and spending time sorting through the 1000+ photos I took while on the island.  Love the girl on this florist’s sign.  Some of the flower photos were taken at the Maria Lanakila Historic Cemetery.  There were

  • Maui

    On a little vacation right now!  I'm getting all kinds of creative inspiration though, so I can't wait to get back to my workspace and start creating.  Well, maybe I can wait a bit longer…. ♥

  • Frosty Morning

    It has been very foggy here for the last week or so and because of that – the dampness in the air in combination with the cold temperatures – the trees have been really lovely.  I found myself out at 5:00 a.m. this morning, enjoying the quiet stillness and photographing some of the winter beauty.

  • Cold Weather

    Had fun today painting this girl on an 8×10" canvas.  The words in the corner say "Letting go". With the temperatures hanging at around zero, staying inside to paint seemed pretty inviting this weekend.  The cold temps do tend to go hand-in-hand with clear skies though, which made for a gorgeous view of Anchorage on

  • Courage

    Today while I was waiting for my daughter to finish up her volunteer work at the animal shelter, I looked up to see this cutie looking back at me.  I though maybe it had gotten loose from the shelter.  My daughter was coming out right then, so I had her run back in to see

  • Fall Display

    I got a little carried away with buying pumpkins this year!  Of course that was before I remembered that fall tends to bring more visits from… Moose.  :)   They consider any produce left on the front porch to be dinner. This group was actually pretty unusual.  It's not uncommon to see a Momma & baby…a

  • Chicken Update

    This is Camilla, striking a pose mid-scratch.  Quite the looker, isn't she?  She's a character too.  I had no idea birds could be so funny.  I'm thinking of posting a chicken video so you can see how busy they are when they're out in their run.  ♥

  • Garden of the Gods

    Here we are (me & my friend Meg) at the visitors center of Garden of the Gods in Colorado Springs.  And the view without us in the middle of it…   Inside the visitors center we found these SO cute felt ornaments… Aren't they sweet?  Before we headed back into Denver, we made one last
