inspired 

by

our forest dwellers

Birds

sometimes

i hear them

singing in the trees

the pine grosbeak

such a lovely sound

last year they came to my feeders

they are such a lovely splash of color in winter wonderland

also a peak at a sketchbook page:

 

Lovely weekend to you

Under the Cloak of the Moon

my blog friend Maureen wondered if the gnome from the last post/painting lowered the mushroom 

cap over himself at night

making him truly invisible

which inspired the above painting

he does! 

look at that, the cap has cloaked all but his boots

under the light of the moon, stars

and gown of the universe of deep blues

~

this was the first painting: 

 

with all his heart

he believed:

I am 

invisible

he took delight 

in being

 part of the hidden realm

~

 

thank you for the inspiration Evergreen Mo! 

it was fun letting your message inspire the next piece

inspiring me to play with story through images

 

~

sweet dreams to you all

Mushroom Gnome

with all his heart

he believed:

I am

he took delight 

in being

 part of the hidden realm

~

one never knows what they might spy

under a wee fungi

Daily Book or Evening Sketches

recently i was considering

: daily sketchbooks

i have called these drawings: evening sketches

but have not done them daily

so i pulled out a sketchbook Marta gave me 4 years ago.

for: daily sketches

Some might reflect my life, as a written journal might. 

Though maybe not......

snowflakes have been falling and the lady above is wearing mittens....

Below a snowflake photo i took on the first day of our new year:

wishing you a magical 2016!

Cloud Maker

she danced on her toes

spinning among swirling branches

it was her joy

and destiny

to be

a 

cloud maker

Beyond the Log Cabin Walls: DC: Threshold

she stood at the threshold

before stepping out

feeling into the essence of the world

allowing her breath

to meet the sway of the trees

the depth and height of the mountains

her heart to beat 

to the song of the birds

felt her kinship with the world

and

she stepped out

~

it is lovely to be DC host this week
