Canna- canna -canna canna- cannachameleon!  
Sing it!  To the tone of Boy George. hee hee

What do you think of my new pet Cannachameleon?
I'd love to see him slowly slink around my home. He was really enjoyable to paint! 
I've an appreciation for aboriginal art the dots.. it is defiantly relaxing and fun to watch happen- much like pointillism.  
Whats the purpose of my ART?   
With each and every piece I create with cannabis in it- it's to help 'normalize cannabis- bring attention make others realize it's just a PLANT which no death has ever been attributed to & to have FUN! It's my PLEASURE. Passion.
SO- if your nervous- you won't die..  try.
Cannabis for pain, depression & then some. Try.

Every morning- I get up, do the stuff we do- bathroom stuff, have a big glass of water then my first BONG hit... a bit of breakfast-  another bong hit - check out the garden, play with the dogs.. inside - bong hit- chores.. bong hit.. paint.. repeat. This is me HIGH.
When I read about what's happening with cannabis in the USA in particular- it's such a hypocrisy - especially with alcohol sold in every grocery store, on every corner- a legal life destroyer - killer... available for all. 

More on Cannabis advertising' soon & a dispensary who appears to be doing it "right".
at least one I can find- It's difficult- more on that too soon.

38 today! With chance of showers- my girls & I will be in the pool.
Today is the eclipse! We might see it  70% they speculate, DONT look into it directly.
Birds & animals will be effected- interesting... I'll keep an eye on Bird.

Jerry Lewis died.  I loved his movies - he was a genius. The Nutty Professor!  Jerry raised billions for muscular dystrophy.  I though he was handsome & incredibly talented and very funny.  His facial expressions and slapstick comedy- thank God I was raised on his movies  compared to T.V. today. I think I'll watch one while I paint today.

I'm feeling grateful for just being , there is much happening...
I can't even express it in words - yet.
BIG - HUGH - life changing. Wait & see. 
The slow & steady snail is on a mission & will not be stopped... some 'events' just take longer, be patient Georgia - everything for a reason.

Wait until you see more of my new work! Stay tooned.
Now SING IT: Canna- canna -canna canna- cannachameleon!  
in the tone of Boy George. hee hee hee.  *Ironically when I just googled for a  song- BOY George is making a comeback in Vegas- he's looking good. Well Done Boy George- you've been around a long time and I wish you success & happiness.

With all that is happening in the world..
I just want to paint a little PUFF of peace, love & cannabis - to help all those struggling to make sense of things... PTSD will be on the rise.  Smoke some medicine.
Have A little fun in the garden of love... I know I do.

Threats of bombs, honestly - I'm more concerned about Trump pushing buttons than I am North Korea.  

It's disheartening what's happened in Virginia & TRUMP and his 'statement'  is shameful- he has encouraged this hatred being fuelled in America.  Can you imagine if it had been  African Americans with pitch forks and torches  shouting hatred & violence rallied in such a way?  IT would have been all over the news - without anyone crashing into people.    
Police would have been shooting.  Arrests all over would have been made.
WTF?

I believe anyone who takes their vehicle and intentionally drive into a group of people should be put down like a rabid animal.  
No court case, no waste of time or money.    :(
He is a terrorist and has NO value for human life at all. 
My son disagreed and said he should get a fair trial & go to jail where he will be punished for what he did. 

Puff Puff and blow some LOVE back into the air when you exhale today! 
SERIOUSLY, please... Think about peace, love and CALM and the energy will float into the Universe and bring us all closer to these desires.   

With Love

When I read about people actually trashing Trudeau, oh my gouache - wake up at least we have someone trying to make a positive change.  FB - arrrrrrggggghhhhh!  
Are you paying attention to the crisis  *below us?
​
*on a map in a book, Eh - Canadian thing.

I'm 53 and proud to be here.   I've noticed something along the years - a trend if you will... I call it  Bipolar Bullshit.   FIRST - there is no 'test' which can prove someone is bipolar or  not. It is based on 'Opinions',  some professional - most not.  I am sure there are people who suffer from great degrees of mood swings and it can be terrible - especially when younger people are confused & feel like ending their lives.  This is about relationships, mostly between men and women.  I want to help young women especially with this subject.  *warning- this blog is 'full of fucks.

A friend shared her 'observation' I still remember our conversation- it hit home then and does even more now  "the second they get tired of you - you become "crazy", everything you do- they blame you, tell all your friends -she's losing it, she's going crazy..'  that was over a decade ago - she eventually had her marriage demise and was told "you're crazy.."  Go figure.   The new term I hear often is "she's Bipolar".  I was actually in a conversation with a group of men & they joked when one said he was 'struggling' with his new wife (#3 ) -"I think she's bipolar"  they all laugh.. apparently the last 2 wives were also bipolar. I look at this tall, white haired handsome gentleman as he says this, I've seen his flirting ways and smooth charms already (you know the type) - and think to myself - yeah sure, I bet they were all bipolar.. asshole.  All the men are high paid, very professional, smart, educated, successful...  I turn to my friend who was one of them when he commented later - again - about her being bi-polar (apparently his ex wife was also Bipolar) and said  "Give me a Fucking break! ( I must have appeared Bipolar to him a this point - lol) Are you kidding me?!!   There is no 'test' to prove someone is Bipolar but it does not take long to see someone is an asshole."  He looked at me - speechless.  Good. 

Ladies - of all ages PAY attention cause it's not fucking funny.  It's never them.  I know myself after my brain surgery- every time Norm and I would argue about something he did, which I disagree with - it would turn around to be about me and my brain and   "she's crazy.. just ignore her."  It was absolutely  one of the factors in the demise of our marriage. Bipolar- bullshit..  If this is crazy- fine.. Call me the fucking QUEEN - because I refuse to be labeled for someone elses behaviour and I will not sit passively while you behave badly. 

Pay attention- are you listening? It starts slowly.. the signs are there and as soon as you see them- get the fuck out.   It's never the adulterer - who promises time an time again - it won't happen again.  Never the gambler, alcoholic.. who blames his partner for all that goes wrong in is life. Never the macho man who is in debt but refuses to admit it.  Children are growing up watching- young sons & daughters - paying attention to these ' harmful words' if not worse.

How many times does a husband leave his wife for a younger woman? 
This is the best 'revenge' out there if you ask me. First of all if he leaves you - Give thanks - he's spared you years of bullshit. You don't need someone in your life who does NOT love you. Younger women now know exactly what they are doing - an old fool and his money will soon be parted just as easy as parting legs.  Led by their penis, they get what they deserve. What 20 year old wants a 6o year old?  Seriously.  For their $$$ yes. That's about it & very soon after - guaranteed-  she will fuck around on him with a much younger man- its a tale as old as time. BUT when he wants to get rid of his OLD wife- he easily states to his lawyer - 'she is bipolar' - and it's not  funny because high paid lawyers will destroy a woman- they know nothing about - for money. In many cases she DID give her life for decades, raised his kids, kept his home & sucked..    to be tosses aside like trash.  Children will be lost in legal battles as well as much else, confidence lost because of years of being blamed and accused of being bipolar- just because you don't agree with your spouse.   Bipolar has become and 'excuse' to keep people down and it's mostly women.  How often do you hear a woman say  "he's bipolar?"

Oh yes, I can appear Bipolar' call it what you want...  I call it being sick of bullshit and refusing to be walked over. Yes, I am capable of yelling, throwing etc..  Bipolar? Hardly.
Pay attention to WHO is calling you what?   Chances there is more to it that what we SEE. 
Chances are it's just another excuse for others to blame for their poor behaviour - it's always easier to blame someone than admit your an asshole.  It's a trend- where will it go? Will it become so when a husband accuses his wife of being bipolar- he will be able to have her committed?  Sound far fetched?  The trend looks frightening the direction it's going.
DO NOT let ANYONE lable you anything you are not!  Bipolar? Or just extremely pissed off?
Happy and sad - sure- that's life!  Bipolar never goes with 'she's so happy - I divorced her' it's always the negative spin.

IF you think you are bipolar- o.k., what can I say.  Please be careful with medications you in your body- note: the description of bipolar blames the environment.  
IF you are in a bad relationship - it is a negative environment.  GET OUT.  
Do you think it's going to get better? Is he lying? Cheating? Drinking? What's next?
Think it will change?
Argue all you want- I guarantee he's thinking - she's a bitch- she's bipolar... and sooner or later he will say it.

Bipolar this.

With LOVE

* FYI- we talk about my cartoons in this house before 'you all' see them. This one has been on my chalk board for almost 6 months - it's a difficult subject if you SERIOUSLY look into it. Norm & Storm both 'get where I am coming from' believe it or not ;)  and the polar bears do not represent 'US/them', *ALL men call the wives crazy when they are upset & (NOT ALL mean it) with them sooner or later..  BUT - it can become very abusive quickly & easily and for many women it has. I thank God  It's "only " about 2 people who have grown apart here (25 years - it happens)  & still argue, still and will always care for each other. 
There is a difference.   I have had this conversation for years in this blog & with ALL of my male friends at one point over the years. - I'm known of speaking my mind and not ashamed of it.   Too few never speak up and the pain continues. 

This 'Bi polar' thing is not correct, women are already struggling more than the average man & are taking medication at alarming rates- how do you think this is effecting families??? The community.. the world?
xox
* o.k. a tiny percentage of men will never call your wives 'crazy' - God bless you and thank you & I sent you a virtual hug!  & kiss - on the cheek. ;)  

Reach for the moon and you'll still hit the stars! 
Gouache - I loved painting this bear..
​
This is the sky before the stars.

​This weekend is a chance to witness the Meteor shower!
​Get out - Look Up.

Can you feel her reaching?
Wishing?
Dreaming?
Wondering?


​I can.

Never stop reaching.   Fearless.

The King of the Cannabis Jungle would be a Green King. :) I love playing with paint..
​
I can think of a few 'Kings of the cannabis jungles' -  I have a favourite even..  
But if you actually google:  
'King of cannabis'
It comes up with someone I've met, respect & like.

The Kings of Cannabis - Watch the Documentary if you've not seen it, I highly recommend.
Get a new appreciation for what the Strain Hunters actually do. I can't help but like any cannabis industry, business, dispensary who is helping a community and you can not deny - they are helping big time & have been for a long time.  To watch the video, we are reminded Franco in no longer here.. he gave his life for 'us' if you think about it - working in the jungle, searching for the perfect strain.  I believe he is watching & helping still and will forever be with the Strain Hunters for generations to come.

Arjan – the King of Cannabis Commitment to Conserve the Genetic
If you’ve been in the cannabis business, be it cultivation or sales, you’d have surely heard about Arjan, who is regarded as the King of Cannabis. And, if you’ve just entered the world of cannabis, you ought to know about this successful cannabis businessman. Arjan, the founder and owner of several cannabis businesses like Green House Seed Company, Green House Coffeeshops, and Strain Hunters, is the only marijuana breeder in the world to have won around 39 high times cannabis cups.

I think what the Strain Hunters are doing with the Africans is incredible & difficult work and they should be praised. They certainly don't have the 'luxuries of home'   I am also a fan of his instagram account - It makes me SMILE.  Many have NO clue of what is really involved..  Arjen educates, makes us aware of life for others less fortunate and is helping an entire community in more ways than  many can even begin to realize to what degree.
It goes well beyond cannabis.  

​These are the people who are making a difference in the WORLD & bringing you quality cannabis. Hard working business men not your average cannabis consumers.'  Certainly not 'stoners'. 

Once considered 'criminals' now the King can sit up on his throne doing what he does best..  Growing some of the best cannabis in the world and trying to make a difference by making  the lives of many easier at the same time.  
I've met him on a few occasions  and believe he is a very 'down to earth', nice guy.  
Professional.  

​You get what you work & IMO he deserves all he's got.
I agree with Franco when he said along the lines.. 'you can't dislike the poor- we've been there and you can't dislike the rich - we're going there." Isn't everyone striving for  better?  If you can improve the lives of others along the way... amen. 

​I respect and admire anyone who works hard for what they get.
I wish there were more like Arjan... there are and I am blessed to know a few.
​* I will say - Arjan has a TEAM of  hard working people behind him.
​
​Time to focus on those who deserve the attention and love for they are making the world a better place through cannabis & erasing the stigma AND providing us with Quality Cannabis for all our recreational and medicinal needs.
​ 
More Lions.. more kings..  soon.

With Love
