Hello weary readers! I’m back!

Once again, I am participating in the annual One World One Heart event. This is an international blog event that started back in 2007. It’s HUGE!

For some background on the event, I’m posting exactly what Lisa, the fabulous organizer of the event has to say:

Catching up & CreativeTherapy

Goodness, it’s been a while. I’ve been busy with life. I’ve continued to paint daily, but nothing passed what I call the gesso test. It wasn’t going to get any better and so I just laid gesso over the images to start over. I’ve sketched some images on the newly gessoed canvases and I hope [...]

To celebrate, I’m going to participate in the big One World One Heart event. What is [...]

Earth Day CAC – Living Green

Today is Earth Day!
Friday, in Create a Connection, we were asked to share how we are living green. I do my best to live as green as I’m able.

We purchased a Honda Civic Hybrid, which I love and saves both the environment and money on fuel.
We recycle our bottles, plastic, and paper (lots of paper!).
We [...]
