Mar 2024 - Atiu Creek Regional Park. A picturesque view of yet another slice of NZ's beauty. Walking along the fenced-in trails (as a portion of the park winds thru areas of pasture for sheep and horses), I stop and breathe in the tranquility of the slightly-clouded blue sky over a section of the Oruawharo River. The green of the meadow's grass is, well, GREEN AS. And lush. As per usual, I tend to only crop my mobile photography and not further edit so as to let natural beauty shine (as best I can, it's better in person). The meadow before me is framed by tall pine trees. Is it possible to not just see but smell colours? I thought so that day. Simply put: it's magic.

After an insane semester during which I certainly did NOT attempt to reinvent education for the Age of AI (sarcasm), I’ve so loved more time for art. In the #NewYear, I resolve to remember I have an art practice 🙄 ~ #JanuArty #tree #eastcoastkin #blueskyartshow #painting #watercolor #traditionalart

Spinning round and round again,
we dance with our star,
in turn,
dances with the singularity,
from which we were born,
within #fertile nebulae.

You and me together is a watercolor painting in shades of indigo, teal and white in square format by artist Karen Kaspar. A black cat and a white cat seen from above are cuddling together. They form a circle like the yin and yang symbol on an abstract watercolor background in teal and indigo.

A little awkwardness here and there keeps life from taking itself too seriously
The image shows three leafless trees in a flat, snow-covered landscape. The trees are positioned at different distances from each other, with the closest tree growing at an angle. The ground is completely covered with snow, with some short plant remains visible. In the background, a blue sky with some clouds can be seen. Auf dem Bild sind drei kahle Bäume in einer schneebedeckten, ebenen Landschaft zu sehen. Die Bäume stehen in unterschiedlichem Abstand zueinander, der vorderste Baum ist schräg gewachsen. Der Boden ist vollständig mit Schnee bedeckt, vereinzelt ragen kurze Pflanzenreste heraus. Im Hintergrund ist ein blauer Himmel mit einigen Wolken sichtbar.

Happy Thursday #Bluesky! 💙

After a long day,
It’s time to watch the sunset,
Breathing salty air. 😊 🌅

“but it is”, said the dream,
“a happy new year…”

“…that is why”, said I, “my dear,

On the walkway down to the lighthouse at Te Rerenga Wairua (Cape Rēinga) - “the leaping off of spirits” - Te Ika-a-Māui (NZ’s North Island). The weather that day was absolutely perfect, the spectrum of blues of the sky rivalling those of the water below. High cirrus clouds stretch and reach their arms, taking one into a soft hug. The green of the native grass, bush, and trees is vivid, vibrant, and lush. More from the wiki page: “Cape Reinga is generally considered the separation marker between the Tasman Sea to the west and the Pacific Ocean to the east. From the lighthouse it is possible to watch the tidal race, as the two seas clash to create unsettled waters just off the coast. Māori refer to this as the meeting of Te Moana-a-Rehua, 'the sea of Rehua' with Te Tai-o-Whitirea, 'the sea of Whitirea', Rehua and Whitirea being a male and a female respectively.”

One of my goals for 2026 is to write haiku inspired by paintings.
I’m kicking things off with a haiku inspired by Norman Rockwell’s Freedom of Speech (1943).

Feel free to join if you’d like.
