Cartagena, South America
More mustard with bright red accents–even in the mundane on the street, where the pigeons are happy and well fed. I see another scene to paint!
A French blue balcony with a deep orange wall–pink, yellow, and lavender flowers spill over the white trim–colorful flower carts. I’ll be giving many color tips in upcoming blogs!

Snowed In for 4 Days!
The morning after a new snowfall is always so exquisite. Where I live, we enjoy it for a few days, and then it’s gone. But this time was different. Snowed in for 4 days with no power or water. Now that’s REAL camping!

The Neighbors Come Calling!
My cat was transfixed at the window, so I had to join him to see what he saw–and there was my neighbor’s peacock strutting around. What magnificence! What an amazing, natural creation–just astounding. Look at the deep, electric blue neck!
And sometimes, the “girls” come to call from next door!
Can you just imagine these characters in a book?

Portland
Fall in Oregon is always spectacular. But this little town near Portland was afire with color, as was Portland. What a beautiful city. To approach it from the south on the freeway, you see this gorgeous city nestled in a hill to your left, ablaze in golden yellow. An amazing place to spend Halloween–true fall colors everywhere! And of course, the air is always so rejuvenating. I love Portland.
