October 2024

 

 

We started the month off with a Moonlight Art Walk of the Hearst Castle in San Simeon, CA
It was a completely different experience than a daytime tour. Loved it!



The grandgirls turned 8 and 5 respectively.
A visit to Legoland and Sea World in San Diego kicked off the festivities.



And here are Hippie One and Hippie Two.






More Halloween fun and crafts!



And no Halloween is complete without the annual visit
to Brookshire Farms Pumpkin Patch in Los Osos, CA
See how they grow!

Summer of 2024

 It's been three years since I posted. To make things simpler, I am going to review this past summer.




We kicked things off with a phenomenal 12 day tour of
the Canadian Rockies. This was taken in Banff National Park
after taking a gondola ride for great views.


One of my favorite shots is of the wildlife crossing bridge in Banff.



And now I can say: I walked on a glacier.



I continued to work on eight pieces showcasing the landmarks
of San Pedro, CA for an online art auction to
benefit the Warner Grand Theater.



I was honored by the Art and Scroll Studio in Alberta, Canada as a
featured artist with a live Zoom interview.

She owned the stage at Cuesta College.



Sage loves the stuffies collection and created a zoo/vet office.




A highlight: Teaching Gemma to sew on my tiny Janome.
She loved it!




August 19th, Leon recovered beautifully from outpatient neck surgery
for cervical stenosis. He continues to improve so well!
