It’s been a while!

3+ years of a ridiculous and dangerous nincompoop in the White House, sweeping global fascism, a global pandemic. I feel like one of the lucky ones. Nobody in my family or my close circle of friends died of Covid.

A lot of personal changes, though. Frank’s mom died. We moved after living in the same place almost 30 years. Our kids, grown up with lives of their own, have left the nest.

Blogs sort of went away as social media rose.

But. I knew there must be a good reason to keep paying for this domain.

The software I’ve stubbornly (Lazily? In denial?) kept using to edit my .com website has been long obsolete.

My neglected to-do lists have finally come overdue and I can no longer post new images on my website.

Images are pretty important to an artist’s website, so I’ll need to remake a website.

While this old dog learns new tricks I’ll be posting those images here on this blog.

With some PayPal buttons, for those who wish to purchase.

It’s easier and hella less embarrassing than trying to learn how to Zoom. (Standing apologies to anyone who has ever had to Zoom with me.)

I am stupid as the day is long when it comes to legal matters. Other things as well, most likely.

The cry-face may take a while to subside.

I thought dog court would be not a big deal this morning – my dog busted through the screen door and barked at & scared people (he has never, ever bitten anyone) – but I was wrong. I pled guilty but probably should have sought counsel. Must get over my fear of lawyers.

I took both dogs for a walk in the rain tonight and they were good as gold.

I love my dogs. The thought of any harm coming to them causes me a lot of distress.

Also, here are some new paintings.

The first, most pertinent one is not quite finished but almost there.

WIP “This is the Dog who Worried the Cat”

This is the Cow with the Crumpled Horn

This is the Cock that Crowed in the Morn

This is the House that Jack Built

Here are a couple tiny ones that I will have available in my studio this First Friday:

“Scaredycat”

oil on canvas, 6″ x 6″

Also, I am tremendously pleased to have a painted skateboard now showing at the wonderful Valkarie Gallery, just west of Denver.

The title is “Devil Does your Dog Bite.”

I may be a devil but my dog does not bite. Truly.

No child, no.
