May is here, half way through, and my head finally is clearing from the juniper pollen. Unfortunately the winds around here have been brutal so it’s nearly impossible to sit out and enjoy the new portal. Soon. Lets hope.
A new series of paintings on cactus has been started. One beginning, which I’ll work on today, of a prickly pear, and a second one is about to get started. A cholla. They will be contemporary, abstract, sparse, I hope. I never know.
It’s definitely fun being at the easel after a rather long hiatus. And pretty soon we shall be walking Canyon Road again, visiting galleries, chatting with the owners. Not yet though. The covid year did me in and being around too many folks is uncomfortable.
Meanwhile there was a dead mouse out back, without it’s head, which was over near a planted pot. Olle, the corgi, did not get it, thank goodness. I wish I knew where they came from and who’s taking off the heads. This is not the first headless mouse.
I wish you all a happy May. Stay safe, get vaccinated, enjoy life.
Carol
