Our Lady of Guadalupe. My process for my art is this ……. I don’t really have one. I find unusual, quirky fabrics that appeal to me. Then I lay them out in my studio and look at them for awhile. (a year) Then one day they speak to me. They say something like this …… […]

I love to doodle. I love the word doodle. I love to say the word doodle. Doodle. When I doodle on paper (which is constantly) this is what it looks like. Daydreaming. Heart shapes and swirls. I doodle in my studio when I don’t have a big project going or when I need a […]

“Hey buddy, where can a frog wet his whistle around here?” It’s been almost 110 degrees every day this week. As I was watering my only surviving flower-pot this little froggie jumped out. Ok I know he is technically a toad, but whatever. He’s still beautiful. For the purpose of this blog post I will […]

Somehow I got qualified to go to the Ranch Sorting National Finals in Oklahoma City last week. I really wanted to go. I was afraid. Afraid of the heat. Afraid of traveling down there alone.

Last January as I pondered the eternal question ….. “What Was I Waiting For?” , I started reclaiming my passion for Ranch Sorting with Paint and ultimately my passion for my life. Last Saturday in Stillwater Oklahoma I won a trophy saddle. I was stunned. I was speechless. I am still speechless. That was […]

I’m back in the studio and does it ever feel good! I took an unintended hiatus because of marvelous Spring weather, lots of riding, playing with dogs and fish and being T.H.’s hired man. The heat has finally driven me (willingly) up to my studio for my summer schedule. This was a little “warm-up” project. The […]

So ya’ll know how devastated I was at the breakup of my last relationship. I have tried a couple rebound relationships since “him”. They just didn’t work out for various reasons. Mostly because they were too close to my own age. (Too old, too slow,too arthritic, too grumpy, too fat) I’ve decided that being a […]

I posted about this quilt a few months ago. At the time I thought it was the ugliest quilt ever made. As it turns out, it is the most favorite one I’ve ever made. I went on an Artist’s Retreat to Santa Fe in November, having just finished the top. I showed the blog […]
