In under two years my mortgage pymt has gone up over $350/mo. bc of taxes & insurance. 😡 In 25 yrs I’ve never even filed a claim! Only 2 more yrs to pay her off, then good riddance insurance! & I have nothing left to cancel or cut back on anymore. & Elon’s a TRILLIONAIRE now! 🤬 That ain’t right.

Took my dog to the park to throw the ball for her. She gave it to some old guy sitting under a tree. He then told me all the places he’s been to (including San Francisco) with a global, geological location. Except for Kuwait, I’ve been to all of them! 🤦♀️ Mansplaining at its finest.

Quinn is deeply mourning the loss of her little buddy, Boo. Hiding & sleeping in the bedroom, not wanting to play, and very sad eyes. 😥 Any suggestions how I can help her? I feel so bad for her.

To keep track of all my tubes of
#watercolor
paints, I make these color swatches, organized by color and separate rings for granulating colors. It’s easy then to pull a color off a ring to see how it works with another color.

It’s been months since I’ve painted. 😔 This is from a class I recently took with Peruvian artist Dario Ccallo. I couldn’t understand a word of it, since it was all in Spanish, but he did have a translator.

Today, at my yrly physical, I had to draw the face of a clock with the time 11:10. The young aide then did an image search on Google to see if it was correct! She didn’t know how to read a clock! Did I teach her? You bet I did! I feel old now.

Today, while buying some mat board, a woman came in with an ORIGINAL Morten Solberg watercolor of an owl! I gasped when I saw it! An original! With stray paint splatter on it! The detail in this owl, incredible. She was looking to sell it, so I offered her $50. Unfortunately she declined. Darn! 😂

I’m having too much fun painting with these granulating watercolors! Plus, with all the chaos and evil happening in our country and around the world, it calms my soul and gives me a few hours of joy.

I'm excited to give the demonstration tonight for the Pikes Peak Watercolor Society. (Which I'm a member of. 😊) I'll be demonstrating how to achieve great granulation with watercolors. I'll be painting something similar to this.

My heart goes out, again, to those parents who’s children were either lost or shot. 😢 Why is it all these deranged 🐓💩 shooters always go after innocent, defenseless children?

FB: they’re painting the US side black! Is that to keep us in? Idiots🤦♀️ Mexico is painting beautiful murals on their side❤️There goes another $500M of our taxes wasted on a needless thing. Think of all the US artists the govt could hire to paint murals on our side👀
