Notorious Goat

Happy SPRING! 

Goats are notorious for getting into trouble! 
Ours opens the door to the chicken coop & turns off  & on the light switch, & helps him tot he chicken food after he opens the garbage can.  I am very amused with our goats but  ‘this goat’,  was inspired by another. 
This goat tries to break into a cannabis farm & it makes me laugh every time I hear it, it's really soemthing that has made me smile this past year. Grateful for goats, creatures in general.  The look of defiance on his face in photos I have seen make me laugh out loud.  Goats like company and are very playful & will win in a stare down contest, most times.

Thank God for creatures who are funny, entertaining, inspiring & loving. 
Grateful for the inspiration - clearly I enjoyed the ‘Notorious Big’ special on Netflix.  Notorious big did what he needed to do & made no bones about it  & believed in himself… & Jesus.  With faith in yourself & all that is possible.  We rise up, by helping raise others up. Biggy was Proof.  He had many who believed in him & more now.  The Lord works in mysterious ways I ponder,  as we boogie to Biggy @ 8a.m… glueing goat gems.
Hee hee hee


Our Goat behaves like an ass!  Indica  gets up on his hind legs and dances treats out of your hand, and will push you over  & doesn't let the ladies have any treats - he head buts them when they try.  he would be the glutton of the petting zoo. Everyone is excited for spring - we see  it as they spring around the  pen, excited for the day.
Goats teach us to enjoy the moment. 

The last step of this painting was to add the gems this morning, much more difficult than I anticipated. 
I walked out to our deck and looked at the new coffee table top Norm created, it was covered with dancing diamonds  of frost in the sunshine - Gods gems! A gift for me to see  in the sunshine before the heat melts them. Heat.. 3 above freezing.
  Inspired I raced into the studio - Oh my.. next thing I knew, I had Norm helping ‘peel off’ the tiny gems as I glued - TEAM work is the DREAM work! 
BAG the necklace took almost as long as the painting. I'll source out new gems for furture Spring Bling!  


We “high fived"… my five higher than his, grateful for Gods medicine helping me get past the fact, I can’t pick ff these tiny Gems. This lesson makes me aware & appreciate these tiny gems called hands, I’ve often taken for granted.  

I hope ‘Notorious Goat made you smile on this glorious first day of Spring 2021
We are created to create Joy.

Mylar Monkey

Monkey business…  acrylic on wood panel.

This mylar monkey makes me smile.
Not sure where the idea evolved from a floating monkey balloon.. slowly, drifting Up, UP…       UP to God. in the clear blue heaven above.

The twist, with a little twist of the wrist  we are aware - he is aware.. already there.

Reminded me..  simply float peacefully & BE.

the journey continues.


Did you watch the Biggy Small doc on Netflix? 
25.. he lived a lifetime in 25 years & rose above ALL odds!
​Impressive. Inspiring.  Insightful.

Painted Cannabis leaf

Painted Cannabis Leaf

I found this leaf pressed in the pages of a ‘cookie cook’ book - at least 3 years old.  Let me tell you - it was not easy to paint.  It’s  very delicate.. 
it kept sticking to my fingers, i stuck to the brush.. lol it was a learning experience.  It almost snapped in the wind  on it’s photo shoot, against a forest backdrop. 

Canadian is the look I was going for - keeping nature on nature. 
I love this leaf & all it stands for.  HEMP too,  a rockstar which has taken a backseat’ with legalization, soon to appear in more ingredients for healthy meals. Spring is springing you can smell it in the air… soon we’ll have 4 plants on the patio to enjoy visually, healthily & spiritually  thank God for every seed.   The size of this leaf made it a fun canvas- I don’t think I’d enjoy a small one as much.

It needed tender loving painting - not like wood or canvas. 
My next canvas a slice of raw edge wood with a huge knot for the sun - looks like a masterpiece & I’ve not touched it.  

9 days to Spring and the driveway has almost melted. Yay!

Created for the creator… it’s time to paint.

Haliburton Golden lake trout on a paddle

My newest Oar a Haliburton Fish caught in a local lake -there was a mix up because i forgot the print out & deleted the email - I thought it was a pike,  clearly I do not know my fish...  learning with each I paint.  I'm getting better at fish - I think.
This fish - was different with it's white dots- the background should not take attention away from his beauty, I thought.
This fish is  a 'Haliburton Gold Lake Trout, only caught here.  I'm not sure exactly where that "here" is,  so you'll have to figure that out if you hope to catch one.

It's off to the paddle Shop in Haliburton! 
It was very nice of the shop to provide paddles (& sanded them) for an affordable price - it's a creative painting surface &  delightful to design! AS soon as the pandemic is over - the Haliburton Forest paddle shop is on my to do list!   Follow them on instagram, I had no idea how much work goes into creating a paddle...  as well as the different style paddles with burned, stamped & painted enhancements.  

When the pandemic is over...
What will it take - IF they tell us to stay home to get it under control- "IT'S THE LAW" - stay the fuck home.  I don't get it .. whats the cost of covid?  A trip to the store for a bottle of booze & bag of chips?  A short visit with friends?  Running out for your Bingo sheets?  Essential services 'Extremely IMPORTANT'.  
According to the newest model of covid expected illness & death - vaccines won't help much at this rate.

Stay home.  Stay healthy.

These two, Ginger & Arrow - Love Hate.. relationship.
They are an endless source of entertainment, they love to bug each other and make no bones about it.  I love my dogs.   Isolation doesn't seem so isolating with them around me all day.  Nap times is especially fun, I have trained my dogs to nap when I nap - I go and get all snuggled in and it doesnt take 5 minutes before they all arive & snuggle in too - I thank God for them everytime.

Constant love, un conditional.  They are quick to forgive and so am I - with them.
Arrow will absolutly train me to paint black dogs better.

The USA & TRUMP - what can I say?  Not my monkies not my circus... I do agree with the opinion, had it been blacks or muslims who stormed the capital - bullets would have been used on them - instead of a glorified  bunch of redneck photo shoots.  When will it end? 
Imagine - the president of the Untited States of America-  has been blocked from Facebook & twitter - for being an asshole. It's an editorial cartoonist dream - or nightmare. 

I have 9 screeching 'BLUEjay bird houses' - on my kitchen table waiting for paint & then delivered to Tom in Minden by Monday- heads up for any that are interested. These custom team work bird houses have proven to be a hit & have helped raise money for the comunity- lots to sqwak about.   On the easel- a portrait- female.  On the desk- my next patio FUNGI  door lock/bar...

So much to paint - so few hours in a day. 
I love it when I wake up and my desk invites me to GET  CREATING
 In my tiny studio - big things happen!

Spending time with Jesus & deer.

Another lock down was to be announced - then we had a blackout - amen.
To think, I thought: 'Rogers was not a great internet provider..  I can asure you the problem up here is real (lol)  apprently it is being addressed on a huge scale.  We had no service for a couple of days.  It was nice for the break - just remindng me.. I need a break. 
I've spoke to a few feeling the same, frustration with 'some' on social media with covid enhancing emotions.. has me tempted to say something I might not say if I remembered  some are fearful. Some are also struggling with things - others are not, tensions are building, understandably. 

NOW is NOT the time to GET your ass in jail.  It's not good.
If you FEEL like you are in prison during this 'lockdown' -  I have learned all outside visits have been cut off,  NOT being permitted even 1 hour of fresh air for weeks/months - (a human right), not getting the service they need, the food they are use to - lots of stuff and n0 control = aniexiety is ^.    not getting the safety  re cleaning, supplies, masks- like the rest of the population  & they certinally can not keep up with sickness in there.   It is very stressful in jail right now  (including staff)...  I guess, all those in there - needed the extra lesson?
The more I understand, the less I judge.
Keep calm, wash you hands.  Have Faith.  

I made myself a Jesus Positive message paitning! lol  
It turned out great! It made me giggle a few times.
& I store the extra messages in the back of this wooden canvas with a strip of paper glued into place. Easy  Peasy!  I glued a magnet on the back of the wooden canvas, and used one on the front to hold the cards.  The magnet I used was recycled,  I forget from what - but it is strong.  One of the strongest smallest magnets I recycled was from a front closing bra!  
Hee hee  Bra? What's that?  I've not bound my boobs once since moving here. Yay.

Then, I painted two tiny reindeer (two sides - one deer) that is the only Christmas Decor.
Good.  Bah Humbug. I embrace my inner GRINCH.  IF it means it will END  'THIS'.. what ever this IS - I don't even know... I know a break would be a good rest for the brain & soul.
Tomorrow, will be my last post for a few.

Happy Saturday!

    Yesterday was Norms birthday!  He worked on his shop - best birthday gift EVER .. lol
He’s 60 & he’s in great shape - it’s from all this hard farm work!  Birthing goats & chasing chickens has kept him fit as a fiddle… lol - more like building coops, barns. a shop, chopping down trees- yeah!  Norm won’t ever look at wood the same again. We were going to celebrate later in the evening with movie & I was making dinner but then… I had some sense knocked into me.   Literally.

I am forever telling Norm & HAVE even blogged about it - one reason many people fall in their homes is…. their dogs.  I have 5 who love me and follow me  everywhere, as you know.  I was painting in my studio, standing.. music - deep in deer snow- and I turned to get paint - turned back and Arrow was at my feet and down I went.   I protect my hands because I know they’ll break so I did not use them, instead I used my head to stop my fall - it bounced off the metal track - between my studio & house.  
I could not google  'concussion symptoms'...   it hurt that bad.
Serious dog training happening - RED tape lines they CANNOT cross - like the kitchen.
I’ll also add my girls freaked out,  they knew I was not joking and were all trying to help me up… Norm arrived a few moments later. 

Not much else happened last night, quiet, bed and today OUCH.  No concussion symptoms, Thank God. Yes, I think I actually  needed to have sense knocked into me - on a few issues- I was hurt enough to wonder if I was gonna die - for a few seconds.  I called Storm to tell him I love him.  Went to bed in pain and did not sleep…  I did talk to Jesus & have had quite a bit of clarification..   a nice calm has consumed me.   ;)  Actually grateful for the fright.

 Although sore to touch, even raise my eyebrows- I am absolutely clearer headed on several issues, humans and STRONGER than I was yesterday. AMEN.
I woke today and thanked God for it & said "o.k.! Let's prove it Jesus!"  lol    Wait & see.

I painted this deer for this stranger  “Ted” I met once  at the feed store in Halliburton (Phil is a great guy & very helpful  if you need seed/feed/animal stuff) I gave Ted my number because he said it was nice to have someone enjoy his photos.   This past year he has shared many beautiful photos of deer, flowers, butterflies, pine weasels, turkeys, amazing chickadees  and always a kind word or take care… thats’ it.  
I realized.. this stranger has absolutely been a positive light in 2020, and I wanted to say Thank you.  I’m pleased how it turned out,  inspired by a photo he sent,  playing with light & snow.

I realized we (me included) rarely ponder some people who are kind & thoughtful yet become ‘thought obsessed’  dwelling on others - who don’t even have the kindness in them to stop & say "hello" or even offer a smile - let alone kind word... 
Worse, we waste our thoughts & precious time on intentionally nasty people - robbing ourselves of  time & joy we could be thinking of the kind people we do have around us. Focus on Love, light Kindness…  I shall.
Let the Universe...    God, focus on the rest.

My head/mind needed the  alignment.
I needed to go & spend time with Jesus in prayer, thought, love.  

Excited to start the next painting!

Gloating Goat

                                        Gloating Goat acrylic on wood panel. 12 x 16

Indica is a content goat.  I like to see him basking in the fall sunshine in his chair.
I wonder what he is thinking...    The yellow in this painting 'pops in the sunshine. 
We have happy goats & chickens,  no wonder my goat gloats'...    he loves to be brushed and is super cheeky, when I go in the coop- he stands against the door (locking me in) looking in the windows, he is quite playful.

Cannabis Kitty & everlasting mushrooms

Meow! Thsi kitty was an experiment!  I found some leaves - dried a few years old! lol
So I'm playing..   These are real cannabis leaves attached to this painting. Painted just fo these leaves. It's a secret how- and I'm not sure how well they will fare,  now I'll watch to see if they deteriorate or fade.  He's a bright kitty to face hanging around.  My cat is OLD.
I wasn't going to bring the cat- I didn't...   I left he cat with Norm as he finished the last house.. I thought - it's too old it will get out & get lost or eatten by a wolf.  I even suggested he put it down, I want sure what to do. He brought the cat.

Fluffy loves it. He goes out and hangs out ont he deck all day, he LOVES it- No traffic - all the mice & birds he can catch.  Kidding... He can't catch anything anymore - but he can imagine.  I am done with felines for this reason - bird killing.   Bird won my hear like no other little bird, I'm still missing him - big time. 
So Fluffy will live until Fluffy no longer lives.  I hope I never have to put another pet down ever- now we have a bungalow - it helps them too.   No stairs - less problems. More bungalows need to be built.

Time to get out - while the gettings good.  Time to work on that Christmas Gift! I will show you - because they don't know me or even know that I am painting it ;)  Have a great day. 
EAT healthy, pat the dog and practice deep breathing! 

Below is a mushroom craft I made by using leftover cement from Norms current project.  SUPER easy & cute I think - not to mention everlasting!  Pour leftover cememnt into empy catfood, yogurt - any small round containers.   Stick in LONG, finger thick (at least) sticks for stems and leave them to dry.   48 hours later - pop them out of the plastic and paint and add sme spots! I painted mine brown but mushrooms come in just about EVERY colour in real life - so go nuts!   I think they look very cute grouped together.  A few photos below have fun.

That's what I hear everytime the goats call.. "Maaaaaa!!!" 
When Storm visited he picked up the goats to show us it couldbe done.. wellby him & Norm.. not me.  They need to be picked up if hurt or in trouble and to have their nails trimmed.  The actual picking up was the challenging  part, once up the goats did not move only yelled:  "Maaaaaa!! "  Whcih made us all laugh.   Goats are so much fun. 
The more they like me tho- the more I learn.  I was almost goosed by my goat when i turned my back on Indica to feed Sativa treats- he bumped me to let me know- turn around. LOL which I did!  He clearly was playing but I can now see how a real head butt to the butt would be felt indeed.

I showed the goats the painting- Indica was jealous and they started to fight over it as seen below...
Picture
Sativa was obsessed with it,  I don't think I'll hang it in the barn - as I like it too.  
Sativa  would not leave it alone, clearly loving her special portrait with Storm.
These goats make me laugh every time I'm out there, I wonder how they'll like our Canadian winter.  They have a new insulated, beautiful goat barn, I'm sure they'll be fine.
These wooden panels are fun - I like how you can stand them instead of hanging them.

Have a creative day & a lovely weekend.  I'll be painting, something.
We have BIG - LITTLE news next week, life changing- for us.  Yay!
