My younger sister, Sue (who turned 50), and I ( who resisited turning 59) both have birthdays in the month of October. My daughter gave us a trip to Disneyland as a birthday gift. Yeah! Way Cool. We had a wonderful time. I came down with a bad cold the last day and spent it in bed at the hotel. Bummer! There was so much to see and do. I was really disappointed that I had to waste the last

Today is Bragging Monday at Etsy Cottage Style. So here is my "Show and Tell".I made this flower arrangement for my bedroom. It is made from a special collection of flowers that I brought with me from my old apartment in Pennsylvania to my new living space here at my daughter's. The room was lovely already, but I wanted to bring in the feeling of a lush English garden. I am pleased that it

Autumn has always been my favorite time of year. I am so energized by the change in weather, the glowing colorful leaves, and the wonderful fresh smell that is uniquely Fall. To celebrate this emotional high I always enjoy from late August until Thanksgiving I have created this card.

Adam Lambert (in the video left) takes over the stage with this beautiful rendition of "Starlight". I am looking forward to watching his career grow. Both he and Kris Allen lit up the stage last night at the American Idol concert. Aren't we lucky to have such talented young people whose gifts span the generational and genre divides. Way to go guys!.

In my mind Butterflies and humans have much in common. They both have humble beginnings, can be somewhat unattractive and destructive during the early stages, but almost always turn out to be beautiful.At least Butterflies always do. Even the lowly moth has a quiet elegance. I once was fortunate enough to observe a butterfly emerge from its cocoon. As I freed it from the jar which contained

In this post I want to celebrate the technological advances and the diverse opportunities and freedoms which have become available because of TECHNOLOGY. Everyday I benefit from computers and the internet. My life as an artist has been greatly enhanced, and yet, I am still troubled. I believe the general agreement is that the world has been made smaller by technology because it is so easy now

I have always had a fascination for pottery, especially teapots. My living arrangements no longer allow for large collections of anything, so I put my obsessions on paper as works of art. I have a "Thinking of You" card introduced into my Etsy Shop for which I created my first Little Green Teapot. This print is a work in progress. (I got carried away making cookies and cupcakes.

It is what makes my heart skip a beat. Its like magic! I hit these magic keys or push around a magic pen and voila! Something beautiful appears. . . And some how I still manage to make a mess of my studio.

Tonight I won't be doing artwork. I will be sitting in front of the television watching American Idol with my daughter. This is the first time this show has grabbed my attention. All of the young people singing on the show are talented and entertaining, but it is Adam Lambert who has caught the imaginations of people of all ages all over the world. In a world stressed nearly to death by all

My personal history includes living through the era of SNAIL Mail. (and Air Mail as well) While I love the Internet and the convenience of "E Mail" I find this new form of communicating lacking in some fundamental elements. There is rarely any joy in holding an email. And while there may be a small amount of vibrational energy to be passed on in this electronic communication, it is transient and

My first typing lessons were on an old black typewriter. You know the kind. It had high round metal buttons perched in such a way they it required brute force to push down and produce a letter on the paper in the carriage. I thought it was a thing of wonder. In my senior year of high school I was introduced to the "electric" typewriter and cautioned to keep my hands away from the speeding

This week I got brave enough to re-open my Etsy Shop. Moving from the East Coast to California has not been an easy adjustment for me. I tell myself that even taking baby steps is better than taking no steps. It is so much easier for me to design and create than it is for me to market. Slowly, I am learning,though, and I will succeed in understanding just what all these new words mean: web
