This is so true. It’s all of these things, but really, it’s a lot of seriously hard work. When I had my shoulder surgery last May people would say, ‘well, since it’s your left shoulder you can still paint!’ Nope. Pain is a big distraction. So many things have to happen in order for a person to be able to be creative.

Steampunk Gears Painting and Prints

One of my most popular paintings ever! Although sold (thanks, Hope!) it is now available as prints and on merchandise. I am really happy about this one. 🙂. You can find it in its different versions at:

I really love this Steampunky (is that a word? It is now!) painting of gears. So much to look at.

Turkish tour

Another look at those natural color-sources. I asked about cochineal, because you couldn't just have that on a shelf, and yes, their deep reds are cochineal. It's a South American insect that is a parasite to the prickly pear. Owners deposit them into their fields, and blow them off and collect them once they're big. Then they crush their fat, bloody bodies for a nice, natural, red dye. I'm so happy to report that the rug we purchased has cochineal in it. I'm also happy to report that it's likely in your lipstick and blush, ladies, and if you drink cherry coke - it's in there, too! :)

'My' Chair

At our theatre the other night we had an orchestra meeting after I taught my sets class. After about a half hour, someone pulled me out of the meeting for a few minutes. When I came back, everyone in the room was laughing and pointing to the nice, uh, black leather chair. I had paint on the back of my shirt, and it permanently smeared all over the leather! The last time I went in the office, I noticed that someone had taped up the sign you see here. One way to lay claim to something! Well, it's not the first time, let's see, there's my driveway with many colors of paint, our carpet with Peter Pan green footprints, my car with yellow paint on the seat, my gloves, half of my clothes. It seems like everyone likes my painted clothes, kind of like already-broken-in-jeans. Maybe I should start a clothing line!
