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 Morning! Sunshine!

Good morning! First day of School! Kids are just off and I made it back to the cottage at 8:04. Grabbed my cold coffee and a gluten free English muffin and I am ready for the day! A slightly cool morning, the 28th of August 2024. Four more days and I have a job interview for activities leader. Jacobie and Dave headed off at 7. The rhythm of the day begins. I put the Italian song Momma, Maria on when I climbed out, now to shut it off and listen to the quiet until it’s time for dishes. One more day and the new black sneaker come. I think these will be good for work. I am wondering what part time work will be like. It will be nice to meet people, it will be very nice to help others have better days. I am wondering what kinds of things one does as an activity leader.

I am thinking about getting older. I am thinking it’s a good idea not to over think getting older. I remember the older folk in my younger life, and how I had observed the changes in these people from the earliest reference point. Now that I am one of these older folks_____ it’s the outside of the self that gets noticed. By this time there is comfort in evolving into who I am. This will only continue; life is not over yet. Quality over quantity always. I think its time to put the feet up and watch the day begin in silence.

Best wishe! Pejj
