What I’m watching: I feel incredibly privileged to have seen this today LIVE – thanks to my son for telling me about it. It was the most amazzzzzing 94 seconds of time well spent. I’m not sure I took a breath during the performance. Happy Birthday, Mozart!! You are a gift that keeps giving all these years later. Encore!! 😉

It’s going to be around 80F here today, and for a couple days after that. Despite what I wrote in my art journal last week, I gotta get outta the house, even if all I do is mow the grass. Never thought I’d ever look forward to doing yard work, but when I cut the grass last week, I was in a much lighter mood afterwards. It felt good to accomplish something while getting some fresh air and exercise.
Since there are lots of dandelions growing on my lawn,
it reminded me of this painting, and now it’s on

I hope you have a wonderful Monday, and that you stay healthy and safe. Thanks for all the messages you sent me last week. It was great to hear from you. 🙂 xo
If you need something to calm and soothe your frazzled nerves while you’re self-isolating, check out Maru and Hana. I’ve been watching these felines for many years now, and they’ve given me so many laughs. My favorites are Maru trying to fit into boxes, and sledding in the winter. Soooo cute!!
I drew these pages while watching YT videos about contour drawing. To me, everything on tv is “Netflix”..doesn’t matter if it’s YT, Amazon Prime, Hulu, it’s all “Netflix” to me.
Kinda like how the kids here call fizzy beverages “Coke”. Doesn’t matter if they’re talking about Pepsi, Mountain Dew or Root Beer..they’ll say “I want a Coke”. I think it’s a midwestern thing, not sure.
Although I haven’t been officially released yet, I think I might be done with jury duty this month. I still have to check the website every night after 5pm just to be sure my juror number isn’t called again. I’m not celebrating yet, but I’m crossing my fingers that I’ve fulfilled my civic duty, and I don’t have to go back for another case.
For a short month, February has been incredibly loooong, y’all. I just want to get back to my quiet little artist life, and leave the big city crime stuff far behind.
