meandering thoughts from a turtle's perspective...
like a tramp through the woods,. a meadow or along a creek bed. sometimes rhyme, sometimes reason, but more often the next small treasure or tidbit that catches my mind's eye

dis claimer :-)

This blog is a canvas from the palette of my thoughts, feelings, ideas, memories...wiped off, painted over, added to, subtracted from...applied with brush, knife, rag, fingers. The process every bit as important as the final product. Welcome!

I am an artist with diverse experience. I have worked in graphics and print layout, illustration, photography, fabric design and costuming. I am available for private commissions or my work can be purchased via RedBubble, Fine Art America or Etsy.
