Brrrr! I was up before the birds and I giggle - I have this thing- it's my own personal polar bear run' experience most mornings. Put out peanuts before the BlueJays start shouting 'Good morning' to me! This morning was fog like and BRISK! Poppy had to pee - a neighbour informed recently she spied a hawk pluck off a blackbird in my backyard- I do not encourage Poppy to go out before her sisters are up so, I went in my shorts & t pj.s - it was a fast hop skip and jump down to the feeder to load it with a cup of nuts.
Next Daisy is up and we all go out the front to check for the paper and she has a pee & peek at whats happening today! Soon after my son was awake and we chat over coffee, next Norm- but he has a new prop. to put out so he's off to the garage before breakfast.
I'm use to it. A peaceful Sunday it's expected to be.
My morning was blessed with an unexpected guest- when I ran out to put out the peanuts a tiny sparrow flew in my home! I let out my "Storm!" Alert yell- they came running and we caught the bird before it could hurt itself by flying into a window. This is twice now- the last time was a bluejay- how wonderful, yes of course I held it, calmed it, whispered it was sweet and then took it back out to go free- it was like shooting a rocket of love from my palm- quite cool if you ask me. My son out for the day left me a joint on the counter (I love it when he leaves me these little gifts, rolling hurts my hands. My right hand all the fingers have completely fused I can no longer bend any. I'm happy it happened slowly, I continued to paint through it and have learned how to hold my brush with no problems- a fork is another story. One more reason I'm happy to dine in. Throwing the ball for Daisy is a new adventure, we figured out a Frisbee is easier.
Bear & Fox are hibernating! I feel this way - today all 3 sit under my desk- content while I start to paint. I am surrounded by love- literally, every day. 2 legs & four. This was inspired by a vintage card from an artist in Norway.. it has me thinking winter and putting a Canadian Spin on a few paintings.
Good News! I've figured out the iPad - Kinda' I'll be posting my next time-lapse little painting for all who are 'learning from watching' like I do. I found this terrific young artist on line who provides great gouache tutorials: http://myriamtillson.storenvy.com myriamtillson.storenvy.com It is refreshing to see such young talent work as hard as she is, there are no excuses if you want to improve your talent- WATCH & learn!
Be in control of your own education.
I know what this young woman is NOT doing... do you?
She's certainly not sitting around watching mindless television every night.
She's not getting drunk, stoned.. baked- what ever you want to call it.
She's not out partying every night.. she is educating herself, improving her skills and spends a great deal of time in thought and will do very well in this life i think.
I'm on a mission to share more positive women role models.
They will have the tagline: FANTASTIC FEMALES. Myriam is one.
Have a terrific day, what ever you do.
