This painting I call "A Wild Garden" is meant as a contrast to the grim January 20 "Sees No Evil" piece that evoked the California wildfires and the growing sense of menace afflicting so many of us of late. Gouache on canvas board

When I was a senior in high school in 1957, we had what they called "Girl's State" where selected students spent a week at a college campus setting up a model government, electing officers and passing bills. This was after 4 years of social studies that included studying civics. Too bad it ended.

Not only did I, at the advanced age of almost 86, manage to set up and get working a new printer (Xmas gift for the house) but today, I also managed to figure out to get the scanner working too. I think that the trick is not to let the technology scare you.

Art vs Artist 2024. A mix of some of my pen and ink drawings and gouache paintings - -a small sample of what I created during the year. I hope ore artists can share their own work -- we need it to counteract the negativity that wants to surround us!
