My interests vary from time to time but I'm always involved in some form of art creation: AI art generation, digital graphics, sketching, acrylic/or watercolors, mixed media art, photography, quilting, zentangling, handmade cards, etc, I move from one to another, back and forth between different artistic genres. Here's My Art Bag of the most current things I'm up to. Take a look and leave a message... I'd love to hear what you think.

These both look perfect to me!

Sunday Postcard Art - Tarot

Our prompt this week at Sunday Postcard Art is "Tarot."  I know what Tarot cards are, and kind of what they look like, but not much more than that.  So it was fun to do a little research on Tarot cards and what the most popular or well known cards mean.  I picked my favorite three and created my versions.  Here they are:

The Fool:  This card offers a lot of visual and thematic elements to play with, such as the open road, the unknown, and the sense of adventure.

The Sun:  The Sun card is cherished for its uplifting energy and its promise of brighter days ahead, making it a favorite among many Tarot enthusiasts and readers.

The Hermit:  This card invites exploration of themes like inner guidance, enlightenment, and the search for truth.

Sunday Postcard Art - Caravan

Our prompt this week at Sunday Postcard Art is "Caravan."  Or, as we call them in the USA, motorhome or travel trailer.   Also, Recreational Vehicle, or RV.

I lived full-time in my motorhome for seven years, traveling with my little Chihuahua, Katie, living off-grid in Arizona and New Mexico, just following the sun and living the dream.  In 2018, I decided to put down roots again, and settled in the high desert of NM, but I'll never forget or regret a minute of that fabulous lifestyle!  Here's how it felt sometimes:

Except... it was just me and Katie, not this gorgeous man and German Shepherd!

Tag Tuesday - Travel

The theme this week at Tag Tuesday is "Travel."  I'm not much of a traveler, that's never been a dream for me.  So I'll just go for the "City of Lights" and post a piece I created of Paris.  I probably wouldn't mind traveling to Paris, France! 😁 

I have a second piece for the "Travel" theme.  This ship reminds me of a vessel Columbus might have sailed on.  When Christopher Columbus set off on his first voyage to find a western route to Asia in 1492, he used three ships: the Niña, the Pinta, and the Santa María. Columbus sailed on the Santa María, which was the largest of the three ships and served as his flagship.

Try it on Tuesday - Book Pages

Our prompt this time at Try it on Tuesday is "Book Pages."

I made a piece about fishing, because I've spent so many happy hours with a fishing rod in my hand. 


The next book pages are about my recent purchase of a Fuji apple tree.
