With October is just around the bend, tis the season for everything to covered in Pumpkin Spice. So I thought I would join in on the madness with this Mixed Media piece. LOL The "spicy" sky background was done with markers. And I used a felt tip pen...

With the pandemic still chugging, natural disasters becoming more a norm than a rarity, and poverty spreading to folks that never thought it would ever happen to them, I think it's time for a Universal Basic Income. Now I'm far from having the resour...

Arguments happen. One person thinks liver and onions is God's gift to the world. The other thinks it should only be served in prison. As for myself, I think a properly prepared liver with onions is nectar of the gods. Anyway, I decided to do a projec...

With the dog days of August upon us, I thought I'd do a digital piece about the dog nights of August. Those hot and sticky nights that just are surreal in their discomfort. Tossing and turning while fighting with clingy sweaty bedding. Having to hop...

I was in need of more light to read. I could just turn on the over head light attached to my ancient ceiling fan, but that would be too much light that I was in the mood for. Since I planned to read for relaxation and hopefully sleep, I needed a mild...
