Yellow Boat, White Boat, Navy Boat, Blue Boat..... What a Beautiful Time-Worn Patina....

I met an artist this spring who spent as 

much time removing paint from her paintings

as she did applying it.

Her results were beautiful..

Something I had never really thought about doing.

This is a technique I am looking to per sue a bit more..

O.K I admit it.. I have a strange quirk.. I collect Rusty Bottle Caps...

Friends and family are starting to get used to my
mild obsession with collecting rusty things..
Mainly Rusty Bottle Caps..
I may have been a crow in a past life..
My eye always casts to the side of the road..
the edge of the parking lot..
the final resting place of the shiny bottle cap
that through time and erosion become my treasure..
when I suddenly say..pullover..or give me a minute..
They know I have honed in on a treasure site..
Perhaps the spot where picnickers popped
the tops off a cool one or two..
I see I am not alone in this quirk..

Dogfaceboy on Flicker also collects...



Even Kimberly Rogers ..Crafter has a thing for Bottle Caps...
See the beautiful earring she has made..


I am so looking forward to the snow to clear so
I can search for the cast offs of last years pleasures...

Turned ON to Turner Classics!!!!

Early Morning Confessions...

no.... that's not the name of a Turner Classic Movie..

I have this early morning addiction to

Edward G. Robinson, Joan Crawford,

James Stewart, Katherine Hepburn..

I am an early morning riser and staring my day with a

cup of Mother Earth Essentials "Healing Blend"

Tea along with a Classic Movie...

it starts the day out Just right!!

I adored Edward G. Robinson as "The Hatchet Man"

Films of this genre have influenced some of my artwork..

Sexy.. Sultry women of that era
