My Rain-Soaked World on High

May 7, 2012

The hummingbirds, chuparosa, hummers, what-ever we call them sure can make a lot of fuss over their feeders.  And this morning they were all just a fussin’ and a flittin’ and scrapin’ with each other.  They do have their little perches that they each love.

but he gets to twitching and flittin’ when another hummer zings by

ready for take off

So I decided to climb up on top of our camper that we still have set up as a studio, closet and general catch all.  But the view from the top is

A M A Z I N G…..

as the sun was peeking through the rain storms blowing round

the sunlight on the new Aspen Groves high in the Sangre de Cristos Mountains

and then I heard this feather-flutter high in the Piñon.  I was up high in their territory.  I almost gasped when I saw him just inches away, nestled in the branches and looking out on the new rain soaked world

good morning rain soaked world

and I didn’t want to startle it, but I had to get one more, and when I moved he looked right at me and I clicked before I should have (but I love it anyway)

He sees me, and then he was gone

What a world it is up high in the tree tops.  You can see forever from here.

peace n abundance,

collecting beautiful artwork from others

March 28, 2012

Seems like artist everywhere like to share their amazing work.  they price it as low as they can so people that see it, love it right away, and then see a price and love that too.

I’ve been collecting art from other artist over the 5 years I’ve been on Etsy.  And even longer really….. back in my college days  (@31 and 32) and from my mother always….

One of my latest purchases is from http://www.etsy.com/people/EcoProduct

Rose and Max (husband and wife) created this little wonderful, super sweet

Raspberry Finch by EcoProduct

http://www.etsy.com/transaction/72018286

They have amazing art.  Check them out and find something for yourself or maybe your special someone that you like to buy for.

Isn’t it just the sweetest thing?  and all the little brushstrokes just get me evderytime

Another Little Springtime She Cardinal watercolour

March 3, 2012

she’s really coming along.  I was a little scared to add her little eye, but I’m feeling good about her.  Still quite a little ways to go.  But soon she will join her sister of February

and my first try at uploading a video, very tiny, like 5 seconds or something

WaterColor “Springtime She Cardinal”

videos are more ways of getting the news out and something new to learn.

here is a very rough photograph of her progress as she comes alive.

This photograph of the little girl herself is from Kate over on her incredibly talented blog.  full of life, amazing captures with their camera she shares with her husband, and their dog named George.
