A Ladybug for Suzanne, Monica Burnette

Whenever I see a ladybug, I think of my artist friend Suzanne. She does the most amazing bug paintings -- and the most amazing other paintings too.

Suze, I painted this while thinking of you and Tim, and sending healing thoughts your way. I hope that like this ladybug, you will come out into the light, and that you might see a bit of color in the darkness too.  Email me your address and I'll send it when it dries.

Gourds, Monica Burnette

One of the things I love about fall is gourds. I love having them around the house to just catch your eye with their unusual shapes and colors. I used to look forward to buying them every year, but somehow my husband has taken over that duty. He comparison shops carefully, picking out each gourd with the precision you'd expect of someone picking out a big ticket item, not a three-for-a-dollar gourd. The slightest bruise, and out it goes. He puts great thought into where each gourd should go in the house. He has been kind enough to allow me to paint a few. However, this year, he *did* suggest I take a photo of them before I touch them, so I could return them to the *exact* spot I found them. Thankfully, his hearing is not the best, and he couldn't hear my whispers of "OCD!" whenever he walked by..... I spent last weekend painting a few gourds, and tried my best to return them to their designated spots.

Daisies, Monica Burnette

“There is a flower, a little flower
With silver crest and golden eye,
That welcomes every changing hour,
And weathers every sky.”

Elvis and the Pink Hydrangea

What do you do when you have a pile of leftover pink paint, only one hour to paint because you're suddenly crazy-busy and you know it's only going to get worse because for some unknown reason, in a moment of weakness, you agreed to foster a 6-month old Golden Retriever puppy named Elvis and you know your 10-year-old Golden (a.k.a. "Mr. Grumpy") will stop speaking to you?  Why, there is really only one thing to do: put on your abstract hat, pick up your palette knife, think of those pink hydrangeas you have only been able to admire as you back down the driveway, and put on your painting apron, because things are going to get pink and messy!
