  • The Story of the BBWs that Dance to Keep the Motion in the Ocean

    This piece was too big to put on my scanner and my camera was just sucking and washing out the colors.  Skinney offered to throw my camera at the wall because he’s good like that, but I did a little video instead 🙂

    This is a video description of a 10-inch by 13-inch watercolor of 3 bbw divas dancing on the ocean shore.

    Many people believe the moon controls the waves of the ocean.
    Not true!
    Did you know it’s three blue goddesses that come to dance on the shore with their seaweed hair waving in the ocean breeze.
    They dance for the moon and make her smile.
    They stomp and wiggle and they dance to a tune only they can hear – I’m pretty sure it’s techno and they keep the motion of the ocean going in and out as it should.

  • Dead Rita

    I have 2 sisters. One I really don’t know well and from what I have come to know, well I don’t want to know her. I don’t delight in the misfortunes of others and anyone that does just can’t be in my life.
    The other sister, was creative, funny, always saw the positive, very compassionate and did the most amazing calligraphy lettering.
    I used to be very close to until the late 1980’s when she become someone I really didn’t know anymore.
    I couldn’t trust her to be truthful with me about anything and then she started stealing my identity and she fell hard into drugs to the point she abandoned both her children and was prostituting herself.
    I’ve gotten one letter from her during yet another brief time of sobriety that never lasts and had probably two conversations with her in the past 20 years. I have to just reconcile myself that the sister I had so much fun with, could count on for anything and really was my sister – is for all intents and purposes dead.

  • Black Hair and Green Eyes

    Sometimes a feeling creates a person.
    Like the other night, I had a great chat with an old friend and then had a great dinner with my partner Skinney and sat down to paint. I was feeling great and apparently feeling great is in the form of black hair and green eyes.
    I have no idea who she is but I bet she’s nice 🙂
