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! May love and laughter find you! With so much going on in the world, we need to find and remember balance. Simply noticing what is good makes a difference.

For things to change for the better will take time. Not easy when there is so much______. Being against one another and getting angry is not going to solve the issues. It’s more like how we can solve the issues and work together, now all of this has been landed on us. Everyone is affected.

I asked myself how I might help others. I thought I do know there are pearls of wisdom, and sending out hopeful thoughts and reminders is something I can do, sometime in poems. I can show my work. So, I hope that my thoughts work in this way.

Sometimes I have read blogs and enjoyed learning about the day-to-day life of others. There is a rhythm to how we begin each day. My own day is temporarily changed due to oral surgery. But the results will be a nice smile again. But for now, it’s no hot, spicey, hard foods. Dental work, a new dentist____ I like him, and after several visits am at ease. A time to take it easy.

The birds have come to eat, the rain is gone, blue skies coming in, sun warming things up. It’s Saturday and dance for Emma. Dad is taking her. Me I will just let it be the weekend. A day to read, I think. Let the mouth heal. Wear a cozy sweater because it is a little chilly and I want to enjoy the air.

It’s thoughts, and its not allowing them to get too serious or stuck. I will do the dishes up and relax today. Perhaps in a bit something will come to me.

Best wishes! Pejj
