Watch it Burn


The beginning of February and another cold, grey day.  
Winter feels endless.

What is the sane response to the rainy misery of winter?

I feel a streak of despondency, a touch of despair.  
Will there ever be another beautifully 
blue day with warm breezes?

The ground is muddy and the landscape is 
an endless mirage of brown leafless sticks.  
I feel a little more disgruntled, a little less sad.

Should I crawl into a soft warm bed and wrap myself 
in cozy, comfy blankets until the spring arrives?

Should I stomp around the house and spread 
my general ire at the world?

I chose the saner method and expressed 
my inner discontent.

What sort of redhead dresses herself to the nines 
and stands back while the world burns?

An irritable, petulant redhead who is 
tired of grey winter days!

Home from the Tea Party - Hat Challenge from TAW


I suspect that our penguin friend had a fabulous time at the Queen's Tea Party.  He most certainly was wearing the most fabulous hat!

Winter and then Spring

I have been absent from this art blog and from art work for the past several weeks due to the increased work demands of the holiday season, BUT those are behind me now.

Things have quieted down and I was happy to eke out a little time last night to work on some new pieces.  I hope to start up again with the wonderful art blog challenges in the very near future.
