Where are we going from here?

 In these troubled times with political angst from all directions, people are threatening to leave the U.S. if their candidate does not win.     I for one would be happy to see many of the other side pack up and go, but there are others that I love, just dont agree with.     If they did all leave, who would take them in?  Who wants them?  


So, I picked up my paint brush and painted a traveler, not knowing where to go. Just headed out to sea.   Wherever the winds blow.....




Masked ladies




 I am continuing this series, and gifting them to favorite small businesses during pandemic.    I may not be bringing them much business or income, but I can let them know they are appreciated.  Stay well everyone.

Seagull in flight 1


 First in series. 

Torn paper collage


 This is my latest torn paper collage.   I found a sketch in an old sketchbook that I did years ago.     I collaged right over top of it.  

An odd thing happened while adding the sun overlays.  The little red streaks on the marigold yellow paper happened by chance.  If my Elmers glue stick brushed against the yellow paper it dyed the paper.  Took me awhile to figure this out.  But I like the touch of red.     It has to be the paper scraps i was using, as gle had no "special" effect on anything else.
