Earthly miracles
DATE: 06/25/2008 06:00:12 / MOOD: in love
I know this sounds like a cliche but it's so true. We've been having some very intense thunderstorms every afternoon. The blue sky is obliterated by these dark purple rolling beauties, the wind rips, lightening strikes and and thunder booms, Huge raindrops pummel the ground... and then the sun peeks out. The earth becomes hazy pink and soft all over.

Delphiniums by Alison Vernon 
6x4, oil with palette knives
We have two puppies who select delectables from the dirty laundry and carry them all over our house and yard, dropping them randomly. We aren't passive people and we keep our rural home clean, I guess none of us find this behavior worthy of hasselling about. Unexpected company may wonder about the underwear in the yard...

Dear friends,
I recently put a 4 minute video on youtube and need as many hits as I can possibly get. A book publisher is considering my book on palette knife painting! Please watch my video, comment and vote, etc then pass it on to as many friends and family.
Thank you so much for your help.

Twelve Spotted Dragonfly
DATE: 06/03/2008 06:26:14 / MOOD: happy
I was a nurse for 17 years before I went full-time as an artist. I provided a lot of hospice care. The dragonfly (I just posted a painting of the Twelve Spotted Dragonfly on my page) is a symbol of the movement from life to death and is often used to explain death to children. The story is this: dragonfly larves lived in the murky pond. Now and then a larve would climb a grassy reed and disappear. The larves agreed to that the next one to disappear must come back to tell the others where they went. Soon, a larve climbed a reed and disappeared. When he awoke, he found himself on a lily pad with long elegant wings. He took flight into the blue sky. Later he flew over the murky pond and remembered his friends. He tried to dive down to show them his beautiful wings but, alas, he could not break through the water's surface. Away he flew into the cloudless sky...

Bird sanctuary
DATE: 05/31/2008 07:35:31 / MOOD: in love
I participated in an art show of all the Audubon bird refuges and sanctuaries in New Hampshire. I was a bit late on the draw so by the time I went out to choose which I wanted to paint, they had all been taken except for this large woodlot with a trail running through it. It was so homely, even the birds avoided it. Suddenly the sun broke through and bang, there was my painting. Take a look...I'll post in on my blogarama.

Marketing Group
DATE: 03/16/2008 17:40:40 / MOOD: in love
Hey bloggers, We've got a good thing going but need more folks to join the party. We have a group blogging on marketing (YUCK but I'd rather eat than starve!) Go to "groups" then "money and investing". Our group is the only one there. We have 14 members but we'll all get wealthier faster if we join heads.

Preaching to the choir.
DATE: 03/12/2008 20:00:33 / MOOD: bored
Sorry, and no offence. But don't you think that showing off our work in this venue is a bit like preaching to the choir? I don't mean to offend but constant blog entries with "look at my new work" is okay but I'm an artist. Shouldn't we artist talk about survival in this economy? Isn't this particular blog developed not for show-casing but for networking? Maybe I'm wrong....
