Paperclay angel

 I had forgotten all about this angel that I made...

I'm happy that Blogger saves all my old photos. It's fun to go back and look at them.

Happy, old photos from my blogs...

My mom and dad had this visitor on their porch...

I made the animal sculptures from the hedge prunings in our yard.

Have a happy day!

I asked Lin from linsartyblobs.blogspot.com if I could paint one of her photos. She graciously agreed, so here it is. Please visit her blog where she shows her delightful art and beautiful photos.

I looked up Beamish and found this info online from Wikipedia:

"Beamish, previously named 'Pit Hill,' is a village in County Durham, England, situated to the NE of Stanley. The village is contained within Hell Hole Wood and is home to Beamish Museum, an open air museum seeking to replicate a northern town of the early 20th century."

Thank you so much Lin-I had fun painting this!

In winter...

 Acrylic on cradled wood.

The snow is pretty but we have had enough of winter.

We have a few bunnies that we watch from our warm and cozy house.

I put out veg peelings-I think they have eaten them, or something else has.

There are also mysterious large dog prints that I have been seeing for a long time. It's one dog, and it just walks along our paths.

I actually think it's a wolf.

There are no loose dogs in our area.

But lots of wild animals.

It is a lovely place to be.

Even in winter...

Stay safe please

Please stay safe in the storm.

-ya gonna kick me out or what???

 I may have shown one of these before-I can't remember, and I didn't look at my blog first before I posted.

Google is doing a new weird thing and I may not be able to sign in to this blog-I have no idea if I'll just disappear. I would lose my YouTube account too.

So-anyway-hoping I can keep getting around the sign-in trouble I'm having-I don't really dare to change anything. If I get locked out, I will just start a new blog.

It's so nice to be in this space with friends I have known for so long!
