Fill your house with a Children's book in every nook.

A home without books is like a tree without bees. Read the sweet nectar, and become a collector.

Throwback Monday (circa 2006-2007)

Look what I found on youtube- Some of my old paintings were made into a video.

Meet Jake the Snake~

Yesterday's the past, tomorrow's the future, but today is a gift. That's why it's called the present~ Bil Keane

Time gives me the shivers, it's a fast moving cold river.
Seems like only yesterday I was my little sisters age- It's important to keep that inner child alive. So glad that she's in my life, she takes me back to that place.

 Cherish your visions and dreams, as they are the children of your soul.

You don't have to be old to be wise, a bird does not wait till it dies to fly~ Dave Matthews

My Children's book series is in the editing process at the moment, and will be released later this year. I have decided to post a glimpse of this magical world along the way. Stay tuned~

Love is everywhere, in everyone

Being deeply loved by someone gives you strength, while loving someone deeply gives you courage.~Lao Tzu

Remember to float away throughout the day

Take a tea break and meditate

Anybody have a few spare doors for me?

An old door doesn't have to be a bore. Although it is a bit of a chore, it could turn into a seat for four.

Mark Twain- One of the best Authors of all time.

  

Through my travels, I stumbled upon a Virginia City (more like a village), NV. Mark Twain lived there

for a few years- There was a museum dedicated to him- his toilet included :-)

Recycle, Reduce, Reuse and close the loop~

Went up the San Fran for the weekend, and saw these pant-plant holders~

Love this! 

Remember to take a stroll to any knoll to clean out the soul.

Love this!!

Two for the price of one, bares fruit and is a lot of fun!

Welcome to my Sanctuary!

So I typically never let the kitties into my studio, now I remember why... Three minutes into Alley's visit, and she's already scoping out the water glass situation so she can knock one over. A fun little game she plays... needless to say, some of my watercolor paintings have suffered from several spillages along the way:-)

Meditate

 

These are the stairs I climb every morning to unwind. It's the way that even those of a different kind like to spend their time :)

Nature always wears the colors of the spirit.~ Ralph Waldo Emerson

Beautiful park of broccoli trees (San Fran).

Sweet treats and lovely reads-the perfect day

 

My little sister and I had a wondrous time reading fairy tales and eating strawberry shortcakes, justified eating it by topping it with greek yogurt, flax and chia seeds :-)

Pursue some path, however narrow and crooked, in which you can walk with love and reverence~ Henry David Thoreau

One can not reflect in streaming water. Only those who know internal peace can give it to others~ Lao Tzu

If I had a world of my own, everything would be nonsense. Nothing would be what it is because everything would be what it isn't. And contrary-wise; what it is it wouldn't be, and what it wouldn't be, it would. You see? ~ Alice in wonderland

To all the amazing mothers in the world... Happy Mothers Day :-)
