This desk was actually made in November. Yes, I built a desk, not sure why but I needed a desk and could not find anything that attracted me and that was within my budget, and besides, we had Covid downtime :). It was also a way to use up plywood sitting in my garage leftover […]

Surviving lockdown.
It’s been a couple of months since this crazy Covid-19 pandemic locked down the world and it’s been more devastating for some than to others but I think that the majority of us had to make some adjustments to our daily routine. I know for me my day would now start with my cup of […]
Peony Painting
Finally, I pushed myself to get this one off the easel, I had started this one a month or so back but left it sitting there and I got totally disconnected with this painting. Lately, I find myself to have an inconsistent attention span, I want to do everything and my painting gets pushed back, […]
Playing in the dirt…
So I’ve been busy in the garden as you saw in my previous posts, I’ve been playing in the dirt for the past few months trying to get my garden oasis which still has a long way to go. Here are some pictures from last year comparing the growth and changes. Avocado located left back […]
Seed Crazy…
So in my previous post, I shared my seed sorting and now that I have these seeds you might ask me, what the heck are you doing with them.

Backyard Garden
As promised, I finally got around to taking some pictures of my back yard. So, I remember when I first moved into my current house when we moved back to Florida. The yard was pretty bare and not much going on and I new that I would be a long term project to have a […]
Out in the garden…
Here’s some pictures of the front garden beds with black mulch. There are still some areas that are being worked on, like the sides that the plants are small and you might see some bare spots but with time they will flourish just like the front main garden beds. There are Red Fountain Grasses, Canna’s, […]
I’m back or at least trying to be…
It’s been a while since I posted, it’s been a while since I painted. The last painting I started was in the beginning of April and has sat on my easel staring at me, my father started going in and out of the hospital and I becoming worried that cancer was winning the battle. After […]
