I had big plans for all the things I wanted to do today and then Monday decided to clobber me right in the lower back. Yikes! Oh well. I forced myself to take it easy after I moved one too many things in the studio.
Still sore but feeling better now. So hard for me to take it easy but thankfully there are so many great DVDS to watch! Hope I can go to Yoga tomorrow. Back to resting. Yuck!

I am pleased to present a new Collection on my Website called Simple Variations! There are only two paintings there right now but there will be more. All of my work is loaded with all the colors of the rainbow in small brushmarks and complicated systems of texture.
Some of them are impasto paintings. Thees painting have a unique surface that has different elevations throughout the painting.
In this collection I am taking a much simpler approach with just a few colors and none of them are impasto paintings. They are all acrylic paintings on small pieces of paper with a colored paper background.
Something different! Very different for me!

Life with The Word and Bird Man – Clyde Kessler
A few days ago Clyde and I went out for a cup of coffee, just coffee. It was nice to get away from the computer and relax. When the waitress brought us the coffee she didn’t bring any straws. When Clyde picked his up to drink it I was surprised. I always use straws.
You are going to drink that without a straw?
Yes.
I always use straws when I eat out.
Well, I am Macho Coffee drinker.
Okay. I get the hint. Mucho Macho Muchacho!
Drink away.
I would greatly appreciate a Google review if you like my work! Here is the link!

I haven’t had the chance to paint today but I am getting a lot of things done, even washed my hair! I hate washing my hair. It takes so long to comb out the tangles. One of these days I will cut it short but I really like long hair so I will put up with it a while longer. Cheers on this beautiful day!

The other day The Bird Man came to my rescue. Between my wireless mouse that kept losing signal and the female cardinal bashing itself on the window I was ready to throw things. Actually, I did. I went into the kitchen and threw a few plastic pieces around the room.
The Bird Man figured out a way to keep me from hurling the mouse through the window to clip the cardinal. He covered the window with paper. Now the cardinal can’t see the hussy that was encroaching on her territory. Now I know where the phrase bird brain comes from. Just kidding. They are probably smarter than me. My nest would probably fall to the ground.
Funny thing. Now that the bird is not clobbering the window, the mouse is staying connected. Were the two irritating events somehow related?

I am still plowing my way through my studio. Right now it looks worse than when I began. Oh well, I am finding things so that is great!
I consider our computer room to be Clyde’s studio where he has all his writing stuff and birding stuff.
When I complained about how hard it is to clean up my studio I suggested he clean his up.
He said he didn’t have a studio, just a Messyo.
That’s for sure! Fat chance of that being sorted out. He does take a few things out of there to recycle so I shouldn’t complain. Don’t let anyone tell you writers don’t have a mess like artists do. NOT TRUE!
Well, that explains it. All that mess is coming from more than one person! LOL!
I got back into the Bermuda Triangle today and found some prints that I have been looking for this year. I am uploading certain works to a site that will not take large files and I scanned most of my original lithographs so the files are too large.
Still have mounds and mounds of things to go through but I will continue to boldly go where no one in their right mind would go.
I guess that reinforces the crazy artist myth. Maybe it isn’t a myth after all. I used to try to convince people that artists aren’t any crazier than any other group of people but perhaps I am wrong. LOL!
