Revenue stream goals for 2024: (1) The creation of 12 pastel still life’s. Below is one example of my work so far. The plan is to create and pick from the best when 12 or more are completed. (2) other revenue stream goals will be paintings in one or more of the following mediums: oil, watercolor or gouache. It’s been a while as my focus has been on Shibui Found Image Art. A pivot is a good thing as I write about Shibui. I am loving Paul Rembrandt pastels. The colors are amazing.

It’s been since 1994 that I have had fun with the pastels. I began Shibui 2011. A lot happened after that. I have my new home in my cottage studio and just now feel I am underway! A new easel awaits me! Varooooom! Or perhaps its “Let’s move it! Move it! Move it! More like that! I love claiming my Boho cottage studio!

Good afternoon! Sunshine!

Going to do a still life. What else? Some frsh fruit! Lol! How many times has that been done? By me not many. Itching to use some pastels Inow have. Been checking out videos. Watching others strutting there stuff is inspiring. It’s been a while a n d it feels exciting. The image of Emma’s reading tree is pencils. This will be chalk pastels. Tgat will be exciting. It’s about shape and values, color. I bought some very nice black paper, it’s called Black. Lol .

made a gourmet neak today. A nice steak minion withe mushroom, garlic and spices. Made lemon bkack tea to go with it.

My turkey was back today. I watched him. He has beautiful brown eyes, round as buttons, a tuffs of small feathers on his head. One rugged bird. He moved his wing fluffing yp….and all this dust came out! The sandy soul like what’s in our driveway it left all these tiny diamond on his beautiful feathers. He is quite art deco if you see him up close.

Best wishes! Pejj.
