Granny's Front Porch


The title of this year's fund raiser for "Kid's of the Block".


I started to work on it yesterday afternoon and all went
so well that I finished it up last night. It was not a hard
or time consumming painting but I think it turned out
really nice.


I have to have the painting turned in by March 30th. The actual
fund raiser will be April 30th.


Enjoy my latest painting, leave a comment and let
me know what you think.


Thanks again for stopping in..

I love this! My granny's front porch had a metal glider and 2 rocking chairs; I can still see it in my mind. I love the pics from the last post, too... and it's so cool that you can raise so much money using your talent. I'm not jealous.. no, not in the least little bit. (Just for safety's sake, you better stay at least 10 feet away from me, cause there's a lightening strike comin' soon....)

Had to laugh at Pam D's post... Having an artistic means of expression and/or outlet, if you will, was always a wish of mine. Not happening.. I can't even sketch good (smile).. but I'm glad you are sharing your talent with such a wonderful cause. I think we all remember those metal chairs and our 'Granny's '.. memories to treasure.. Love the contrast in the painiting..wonderful submission. Enjoy yr day. Nancy M.; Ohio

Seasonal Changes with Lily, Moods, Snuggle Bunny, Blue Tail Skink gets out Alive

Image
 Seasonal changes are coming,  moving in slowly as always,  but coming.  Leaves are falling, not since fall is close but cause we  are so freak'n dry. Got a little rain shower on Wed. but, it did not even register in my rain gauge.    Spider webs are thick, grass is  crunchy, flowers are giving up  the fight, and Lily is doing her seasonal behavior as fall moves in. What would that be? She has started the curling up  behind my knee sort of  thing again and  wanting to be close. Not on me,  not in my lap, but close to me. This starts taking place every year around this time. Not only has that started, I think  she knows that time changes at some point. This week, she started waking me at 4. What she don't understand, it is not bouncing forward, so 4 will not be 5.... LILY, get with the program! haha.. Actually, I think the early rise has to do with me.  You see, with me having been  suffering the last 2.5 mon...

The Rest of Today

Image
After my trip to town today,  visit with the doc, stopping  and picking up breakfast I  headed home.  I had dropped Dakota off at mom's for the day. He was going  to spend the day  playing with Klohe and Cheyenne. While he was hanging at mom's Lily and I chilled all day.  So much to do but I can't seem to get it in gear. Later....I had an apt for a hair cut. But I left out early to stop  at the  Mystic Heart. I picked up some healing stones there.  Entering the store I read this sign... haha Then while in there I saw this sign. From there I headed to see  Kelley, my hair stylist. This is what I was shooting for. Course, it will look different on  me due to hair color and  texture of hair.  I am good with it. I got to Heads Up a bit early  so Kelley still had a young boy she was working on and his dad after h...
