  • The Story of Nurse Zombie

    Nurse zombie was a very dedicated RN and then one day “that” patient was brought in.
    The one that bit her.

    She’d had patients flail and even bite before but this one was different – it was like he was tasting her.

    She cleaned her wound but 2 days later she ran a fever.
    Then 5 days after the bite she called in and said she was really in pain and thought she may need a few extra days off it was just a bad stomach bug or maybe even the flu.
    Then she didn’t call in at all on the 6th day.
    On the 7th day after the bite,  she came to work as always and people ran away in horror.
    She died sometime during the 5th or 6th day and was now a zombie.
    Sometime during the night

  • 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.

  • Tina is No Good at Starting Conversations –

    I actually painted this about 2 years ago when the actual incident that lead to this painting occurred.
    There was a stepmother who absolutely ignored her stepdaughter.
    In over 6 years, not one single email, text message, letter or phone call to her step daughter that she claimed she wanted to be part of their family.
    She instructed her own children to have little to do with the step-daughter and being dutiful kids, they did.
    The stepmother would ask others about her stepdaughter even when the girl was in the room.
    If the stepdaughter spoke to her stepmother, she would be met with a grunt or silence.
    Every photo of the step-daughter was removed from the walls of the house save one left the father’s study.
    And when the daughter confronted her father and asked him to intervene and please talk to his wife and help everyone find some common ground, her father simply told her that her stepmother wasn’t good at starting conversations.

    I feel bad for them both, they missed out on knowing a great kid 🙂

  • 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.

  • BBW Tea Time – Stress Free

    Here’s the story:
    This was a relaxing ACEO card.
    I wanted to make someone that wasn’t in front of a computer, shut off her cell phone, and no television.
    Not streaming Netflix or Amazon Prime movies.
    She’s just having tea and probably looking out of a window and enjoying the view.
    Stress free.
    I need to do that too.

  • Outdated Thoughts About Women’s Roles

    I found this excerpt in a book for 1950’s school counselors to control the teens.
    It read, “Until women acquired their present rights and freedoms, their feminine roles were well defined.”
    Let’s hear it for not defining feminine roles!

  • Cat in Her Lap Watercolor & Ink 🙂

    This was inspired by some random woman I saw when we were out driving around. She looked so happy on her porch just holding her ginger cat watching the traffic roll by.
