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, everyone! It’s overcast, there was a little more snow fall last night. Mom’s home and will take the kids to school. I thought I could sleep in but Ollie had other plans. Now, he has headed out. I was hoping to slide back into sleeping and not be more awake. But here I am writing.

“I have a garden in my mind____ in which I walk sometimes____ and in the glowing gold____ of a setting sun____ a rose of courage climbs____ and find its way along the fence____ that protects and hold my heart____ And all along the walk of love____ the flower of peace makes its start____ A mockingbird in all its joy____ sings deep within this night____ And rest comes greatly drifting down____ and settles oh so lightly____ upon my grateful heart serene____ and I spend my tranquil hours____ within the garden of my mind____ among the fragrant flowers.” Joyce Hifler.

May your day be filled with love! Best wishes! Pejj
