Santa!? Is that you?

Peek a boo! Santa is that you?
Another TREE themed painting, I'm in the tree mood - How many will actually set up a Christmas cannabis tree- I've seen them before & technically NOW in Canada WE can! Have a Legal Cannabis Christmas tree - Ho Ho Ho! There will be several tinkling on Instagram no doubts! Not me.. I like my tree traditional and my other tree - in the bowl of my bong. 
My tree goes up this weekend! I look forward already to sitting by it int he evening , relaxing with a tea, joint & cupcake.. or two.
​
It's going to be a stressful Christmas for many GM employees this holiday, better they know now before they go deeper into debt for the holidays. I did hear most people like cash', not me - if you can't think of a thoughtful gift - it's o.k. pass me  & It's not about the cost either.  & I don't give 'money' - not even to Storm.  I DO however give away several paintings this holiday, many not yet at their destinations - I'm excited at the thought.
Already I hear, see & read on social media of people being stressed about gift giving: Don't.  It is NOT worth the stress and harm on your own health... it's JUST STUFF.

This Peek A Boo Santa was painted while I thought of how to paint a  'T-Shirt design request from a young woman who happens to be a real fellow tree hugger & it's school related so, I said 'yes' & I'll show you that painting soon... I think it turned out pretty sweet  - she did too. 

 Medicated carrot cakes for the holidays! Legal!
Oh my! Has it set in yet? Give Thanks Cannabis is now legal in Canada, I was reading  even IF legalized  across the board in the USA they will STILL use it federally to arrest their own, HUMBUG - talk about messed up priorities -  tear gassing children & STILL punishing people OVER plants.  Yikes - we had a cop shoot another cop just yesterday near St. Catherines..  wtf?  GUNS kill.   Somethings got to give... soon.
Please Give away your guns to the police... ?

Paint Date - Book one now!

Yep, I'm enjoying these one to one painting sessions.  I think I'll continue, each becoming more enjoyable I had another friend who mentioned to me one day: I've never painted.  Gasp! How can this be?  lol  So, I invited her over to learn how to paint  & it was quite the success for her FIRST painting if I do say so.   Holy!
So many of you are gifted and don't even know it!  

I've decided to offer this to a few people, if you would like to join me to paint - but I've got to have rules, have you seen the movie 'Georgia Rules' - It's true, for me anyhow I need rules to make this the best experience for us both. Want to hear them...   it might help you decide if you want to join me.

Plan on approximately  5 hours & I like to start at 10 a.m.
Be here NOW to paint & learn how to paint... not to get high or gossip.
We stop for Pizza for lunch - no green peppers.
No cell phones.. if you need to look at your phone every 15 minutes or less, stay home.
No tobacco smoking in my home, feel free to join me with a  joint.
You provide the photo you'd like to paint - any subject - my friend wanted to paint a husky  with my suggestion to turn it into a christmas card and forcing a imagined twist to the photos.
All I ask is you  TRY,  follow my directions  step by step to create a masterpiece.

I supply - all supplies for you to leave with a finished painting & instruction on the next steps should you want to continue painting. 
You supply snacks - I prefer healthy & enjoy also baked goods & cookies.
You must like dogs  BUT listen to me when I ask you to: ignore my dogs.
I choose our painting music, dress in comfortable clothing  so you won't mind if you get paint on them or dog hair... mostly paint.
You allow me to share our images of the  experience & finished product on  my Social Media 
​ so people can see, I am still being social & you learned to paint! 
Express an interest in painting.

Let me know if you are interested (e me) ...  I'll book an available date & we shall create!  

I've actually invited a few friends that would travel quite the distance, that lesson includes a say in the guest room..  in progress.  Painting is proven to calm, heal, help people express themselves, inspire & more - learn a new hobby, there is no time like NOW!
Create, use your brain & heart instead of letting the TV use them. 
I watched the DOC: The Red Pill.  My opinion: Do not waste your time.

More Chritsmas & cananbis next!
​I can hardly contain this 'Christmas feeling' this year.

Thoughts of a tree frustrate me.

Here I go.. I want a REAL tree.. this year I think I'm getting a real tree.. then Norm talks me out of it, the needles,  pets, watering - I'll see... I say.  I'd like a real tree- a tree GROWN in Canada for this purpose... or do I?  We already have a tree and it's lit - no killing a living tree like the one in the NY, I never realized they  search for the biggest - a 75 year old Majestic beast cut down so we can all gloat at it for a few weeks... then what happens to that tree I wonder. I guess the fake tree it is.  
That was easy!   See - Just the thought of the tree- excites me. Especially  live trees.

My fondest memories are of ornaments on trees- my grandma usually had the best - elfs, santa, angels (I still have one) I'm sure they were long tossed.  Every year I make an ornament - I'm making this years this weekend, thinking of HOW is the hardest part.. the more I figure out in my head the easier the task will be & enjoyed. 
The tree will go up on the weekend so I can't work with Ginger- who keeps me BUSY as it is - I don't need her stealing ornaments off the tree...  It's easy to imagine.
 
This is Santa in his pick up 'Laughing all the way! Santa lives in Canada (his official address as seen below) & will be getting his mail! Thank you Canada Post- Thank you Justin (& staff) is more like it.  Christmas trees excite me but I guess  ALL trees excite me.
Save a tree! Use last years, paint one.. make one.  BTW - I enjoyed the new Santa Movie with Kurt Russell on Netflix.                      It had the perfect ending. 

*** If there is ONE thing I've learned researching  potential 'grow room fires' -it's they are not common - BUT CHRISTMAS tree fires STILL ARE!   
Please uses caution this Christmas.  HoHoHo!

Are your stockings hung?

Not mine.. that's pushing it. I think people who already have the tree up are pushing it- lol We do have the outside tree- it has to go up before too much snow but my inside tree does not go up until the weekend... so much to do!  

I just found out (from Alexa) it's  #giving Tuesday! I'm giving my time & skills already.. 
Today I'm teaching another friend how to paint! I'm on a mission- put more painters on the planet..  and starting new canvas. I've also been commissioned to draw a few- DOGS for Christmas gifts - one for a Bulldog in a barber shop- you know that's going to be fun ;) This cold, wet weather has been difficult on my bones - Thank God for Legal Cannabis or there would be less painting & more napping & I'm also baking medicate carrot cake today, someone I care about seriously hurt themselves & I don't want anyone using addictive 'pain pills' for an extended time.. besides how can anyone resist my carrot cake? ;)

What are you giving? Have fun!

TODAY is #giving Tuesday! I'm giving this original away on Instagram to someone who comments & tags a bud who might be interested,  it can easily be framed (not included) with a frame you PU at any store that offers frames for about $20.  * IT can not get wet- or it will ruin. Please remember this IF you win it.  I'll choose the winner when I wake and announce it in the a.m..   ​What can you give today?
Smiles count so does time, love, listening... 

When I do hang the stockings - I do hope Santa puts some bud in them this year!! Woo Hoo! Legal in Canada- You KNOW there's going to be many a stocking filled with cannabis in Canada this year & many to come!

Ho Ho Ho! Santa makes his appearance in parades all over - not sure whom I love more reindeer  or Santa! lol  In Canada Santas reindeer eat Hemp - good for the heart! 
It's all about Christmas now- or rather the Christmas spirit...  not stuff.
It's about baking gingerbread! Decorating the tree (& outside for us) & painting all things ..
the postal strike is over & I have presents to mail - all over!
Paintings for a select few of my friends. 

I've ordered Candied orange peels for Christmas goodies & a girlfriend is coming to help me bake next week! Although December is still a week away- it will come & go before you know it...  so time to get in the Spirit! 

This year instead of giving away a painting to just anyone - I chose someone to paint for & I am very pleased with my gift! It's being mailed today to an America friend I met on IG, Im excited for them to get it because I painted MUCH love into it... as I do with everything.
IF you are expecting a mail/package from me - PLEASE be patient, ho knows how long anything will take with the mail due to the strike backlog.  
​
What are your plans for today? Put some love in it!

Black Friday   Editorial Cartoon.

It's Black Friday.  Consumerism is killing us.
More dead birds.. More Oil spills.     This one in Nova Scotia- are you AWARE?
Tis the season.  Migration season - these birds don't have a chance.
Shop till you drop time.. 
Forget  this postal strike - Go OUT & shop locally!  Better yet- make a special gift.
Support your neighbours - imagine the impact that would make on your OWN home town/city.  
The impact online shopping is having is already noticeable, especially when it comes to excessive packaging. Noticeably bad for the planet.

We are all responsible for the deaths of each creature.
Is all this "stuff worth it" ? 


My next card! Next... Ho Ho Ho

Frosty the Growman!

20/11/2018

It's Frosty the Growman! He arrived with the first Magical Snow - which is still here, not looking as magical - more expected today!  Today is universal Children's day,  Children need to be educated on cannabis so they do not repeat mistakes their parents made. 

I can't express how happy I feel to finally pick up the news and read such headlines like:
Cannabis legalization has  NOT led to increased traffic impairments/ accidents.
Which I knew -(10 years experience +)  most I know who smoke cannabis assure me they are more cautious 'calmer drivers.. those who experience road RAGE could use some nice calming cannabis from time to time.

As well as no surge in Reefer madness- it's finally being addressed Alcohol is MORE harmful than cannabis!  THIS I KNOW for a fact. 10 years experience - thank God.  My hang -over days are long over- because I don't drink anymore, a glass or two tops from time to time that's it. NO more drunken binges - puking until theres no more, head pounding "what happened last night?" - Does NO longer happen - because Alcohol is poison (fact) and not good for your health or brains. Cheers. https://globalnews.ca/news/4671669/alcohol-or-marijuana-healthier/  So apparently  people are "switching' Good!!  GREAT! Less death, less depression, less drivers drunk- killing others or themselves!
Teach this to your children & also teach them the past - so they don't repeat it.
Teach them how to grow this beautiful plant.

Don't judge others for what they use to heal themselves, know plant medicine - KNOW your options- take control of your health & happiness. Alcohol is a depressant. Fact.  I wish more men would smoke cannabis instead of drink - Suicide is higher with men than women...  many men drink themselves to death. FACT.  You can drink so much you can kill yourself.
I have tried to smoke as much as I could and smoked cananbis all day- every 1/2 hour.. I felt great,  accomplished tasks & I'm still here...  the same wouldn't be said for Alcohol.
So with the first magical Snow in Canada - Frosty the Growman comes to life! Of all things for Frosty to find in the middle of a forest - a Green house - it's fate Frosty!  How many are growing this christmas? How many will get cannabis related items under this years LEGAL tree - me  me me!! Ho Ho Ho - Lets Grow!

Enjoy the snow!

* Anyone who is expecting mail from me- be patient- the POSTAL strike- still on  ( of course NOW with the Christmas rush) I hope Justin steps in soon and makes them get back to work-  Black mail is all this postal strike has been - again.. at a time when Canadians needed it most - they have let us down & continue to do so - with Holidays packages now & continued cannabis deliveries!  One more reason for Ho Ho HOME grown.

Sunday painting.. Monday reflection.

This by far one of the best weekends I've had in a while starting with Friday morning breakfast & day with Storm & ending with a painting session in my studio with Madison.  
The Original cricket Club member!  & as I look at her photo holding her flamingo  a smile crosses my face because it seems like yesterday she was in pony tails and we where getting ready to go swimming, play with Larry - the gecko - make some thing incredibly cool - like a lady bug flower pot wind chime! When I taught kids in the studio  was by far some of the best days of my life.  I've blogged about Madison before, it was nothing new to have a kid ask if they could stay over and be my helpers - which was something I could use (kids & crafts = mess)  especially when I was offering full days  in the summers, it was a great way for me to offer families with more than one kid - free classes in exchange also. I had repeat clients & some with 3 or more kids - and I understood how expensive things could get.  ;)  

I couldn't believe when I saw Madisons incredibly cute baby on instagram! Time flies & it is 'the time' because she's not the only kid I taught having children' - it's so fun & amazing to witness -  I can't resist as I think - hahaha- I shall teach them all crafts, wait till they are older - do I have stories for them - "Your mom ate a cricket!"  "Your dad use to pick his nose with his pencil & show us  because he thought it was hilarious", "Your dad brought his pet Duck everywhere!"... "Your pet pig ate you moms fancy high heels and she nearly had him for breakfast & that is why you are at this last second  craft class! (so mom can cool down)"   lol  Oh my gosh  I'm giggling..  - when he/she was 8.  
How did this happen.. time flies.

& time flew on Sunday, I lost all track as we sat, painted flamingos & discussed all from birth, babies to buds.  I was of course happy to hear Madison is educated on cannabis but I knew she had gone to school, finished her education & has a career, married & now a baby! Life - as it is.. she continues to be educated, passionate & creative and that smile makes me think she's 12 again eating a grasshopper - just so we would get on with he craft!  How blessed am I that Madison visited and painted - 15 years later - wow.  ;)  Now a MOM herself, a beautiful little baby girl  4 months - I remember how difficult those times could be - not as peachy as social media portrays it to be for sure.  Madison has a terrific family, husband & friends- I've no doubts she will be a great mom - wait until she teaches her daughter how to paint, what a lucky little girl.

When the kids were little I'd usually ask each of them - "What do you want to be when you grow up""   I often heard "an art teacher, like you!"  It's true - we had fun & created many masterpieces in this basement...  I of course took all of them for their word - lol  so when I hear,  when I ask NOW: Are you still painting, still working with art?  
and the reply is "No."  I usually say something - like "Well that's a waste of a talent!"  lol
and they are not shocked.. they usually laugh and hopefully they pick up a sketch book later.
I saw it! I can see the talent in kids & adults still - it's  energy.  

Once we sketched our birds & I explained acrylic paint and how I paint - she did 'her thing... just like then she was 12 - I admired it then & NOW.  Don't forget to do your thing! 
I remember her brother & sister too- those were not always perfect situations because siblings still have a tendency to aggravate each other- even at summer camp. These kids were all talented and  lovely little humans & still are today - even if they don't make  signs that say "Reindeer parking here!"   & I'd also give that credit to mom & dad who were two very hard working parents & always put the kids first.
Kids & parents, thank you - Time of my life.

I absolutely enjoyed every moment painting with Madison and she is welcome to join me again.  I be neat to get all the cricket club kids - over for a painting classes and bong session ;) hee hee  
Grateful doesn't begin to describe how I feel about my life most days.

It's Training Season!

This Saturday the Santa Clause parade is in town.. tis the season!
I call it the 'Squeezing Season' now, a season/holiday designed around consumerism designed to 'Squeeze' every last penny out of your pocket with commercial bombardment, social pressure and guilt.  Yes, we will have a nice Christmas, good food, fine wine & cannabis baked gingerbread cookies & hopefully good company - as for  gifts- we don't NEED anything  - I'm happy with just setting up a few trinket and enjoying what Christmas might still represent for us.. me.  Still, I LOVE drawing all things Christmas - especially reindeer.

This comic made me smile-  I hope it has done the same for you.. hee hee 
How else do you think they FLY?  & the stamina for the evening? Gotta be magic medibles. It's honestly in 2 parts because I forgot Dasher - lol 

I want to add Jim Carey is a very talented cartoonist! Editorial. I love his work, he posts on twitter - dumped FB - I feel the same. Absolute editorial genius - I'm not shocked!  He has inspired me to draw a few editorial myself.

Have you read about the RAPE of a young male student @ St. Michaels (all boy) Catholic school?  Expelled? BULLSHIT. Fucking LOCKER ROOM bullshit! It has to end - IF I had control I would eliminate the  football team all together, forever.  I hope  they ALL are EXPOSED for being the PACK of dirty ANIMALS they are - Imagine being a parent to find out your son took part in this, laughing and joking as they watch a FELLOW student raped. I don't understand how anyone can do this let alone a group of YOUNG EDUCATED men,  at this school that costs thousands to attend to produce 'fine upstanding'  gentleman - right. This 'group mentality' is WORSE!    So much for their '0' tolerance policy!  
0 football MIGHT set a better example.  I knew boys when I was younger who went to St. Mikes - they thought they were better than the rest of us back then.. perhaps they still do, clearly they thought they could get away with this sort of  behaviour.

I am  thrilled with this talented young Canadian artist!  Speaking up with her photography... thefirstnationscanada.com/2018/11/photography-student-sends-message-about-mmiwg-using-canadian-flag/   I saw her image and it made me hold my breath.  Bravo.  She too has inspired me to try to paint on a topic I find incredibly difficult.
It's not all cannabis, comics and reindeer.

Apples & oranges..

14/11/2018

I love Oranges & apples..   peeling an orange has become a task I no longer am able to do & it's one of those things that you don't realize how awesome it is - until you can't do it, I have to slice off the peel - this also is not an easy task because i can't grip a knife to hold it with any strength... let me tell you - it sucks when you want an orange, see the orange, have access to the big plump juicy orange Orange but KNOW- cutting that orange is going to physically hurt - so you grab the banana - again.   Don't take peeling  your oranges for granted... for several reasons- if they come from California - the price is going up! 

Crusty Rusty called me just now Grumpy & I get why - (me too) and fuck if he is not correct again- all these movie stars in California - with these fancy priceless homes & cars - how about you get together & invest in several water bombers?!  Never mind the price of oranges the cost of land & life - human & animals, birds, bugs even - is all that matters .

I also like apples- I do eat one a day & I share with bird - his favourite is McIntosh.. I am very grateful I bit the bullet when I purchased my iPad & got the extra Apple care insurance - my hands in the morning don't work properly... I have to exercise & medicate just to limber them up before i paint & the other morning I felt my iPad slip from my hands onto the kitchen ceramic floor but I could not grip it is my life depended on it- I watched in slow mo thinking "Oh Nooooooo"- shattered.  It apparently could not be repaired and was replaced!  I am grateful- it would have other wise cost about $800, with the normal insurance to replace.. so - if you can learn from this do.  No one wants to drop the iPad intentionally, I felt like a doofus - it had all my work, art, photos etc.. anyhow- lesson learned - looking for a new case & keeping out of my hands until they are nimble.

It has new features - I love this 'comic book thing'- poor Storm, I sent him so many photos when I discovered it! lol   Anyhow - it's back to work.. this time change still has me thrown - getting dark at 5 has me ready for bed by 7! (I know I'm not alone- tis the season - I'll get through it) but it's o.k. because I'm up at 5- ready to paint by 6...  ready to enjoy painting, apples & oranges.

New Christmas & cannabis comic next - it is the Santa Clause Parade this weekend after all!!  Ho Ho Ho!

Ponder this:  Norm bought a beer from > Walmart < yesterday and the guy at the cashier asks him: "Do you need a bag?"  They charge 5cents a bag...     
Norm says: "In Ontario it's illegal to take alcohol out of the LCBO without a bag- so Yes, I guess I do - and I'm not paying for it."    Hmmm...    They gave him the bag of course. 
There you go...  different rules for different drugs and make no mistake ALCOHOL is a drug   & let's see  how many times the BEER store will 'threaten us' with a strike this hot summer - NOW that Walmart carries - beer-  I bet those days are done.

Perhaps the Post office needs competition.
