Writing a memoir about life with an old dog. Sketching animals whenever I can.
Playing with domesticated Chincoteague Ponies today, love their muzzles, especially the foal on the left...sooo soft!

I love the how the sky changes constantly on Assateague Island. So dynamic, yet always beautiful.

I saw my first Oystercatcher of the upcoming breeding season the other day on Assateague Island. Just love them!

While I was photographing this dog for a portrait commission, he decided it was the perfect time to bask in the late winter warmth of the sun. I put down my camera and decided to do the same!

It snowed last night, bringing back memories of my old boy Zack. He's an angel now, but whenever it snows I think of him. He just loved the white stuff!

Happy Valentine's Day! 💘 I photographed this tender moment between two Black Vultures on Chincoteague Island.

Snowy Chincoteague Ponies! I took this pic yesterday, but sadly the snow is all gone today. Foals born last spring on Assateague Island, wintering on Chincoteague Island, then will be released back into the wilds of Assateague in a few months.

Cimba was a big naughty boy last night, waking me up 3 times to play with him and his new squeaky cricket toy he got yesterday!

I really like the illustrations in this children's picture book; they match the book's Paris setting with their Fauvist feel.

A while back I did a communication with Cimba and he asked me to read to him, so now I do. Both of us liked this memoir "Making Rounds with Oscar" about an unusual cat who knew when geriatric patients were close to death.

Why do cats have to get into every box or container they see? Ah, Cimba, you always keep me laughing!

I can't seem to get enough of painting cats! Acrylic on canvas. Meow!
