I'd love to have this cloud of blue in a few spaces in my garden beds. It might not like MAINE.... It's Catmint....I think it smells like pee but I'll have to check on that to see if I am correct.
I sorted out the drawer I have filled with desk calendar ART. At one time I drew pictures and colored them here on the desk calendar......at some point I started using images cut from magazines to the surface. I have years of calendars in a box- I imagined an art display in some fantasy...just covering the walls with calendar pages.
At the recent Dye Plant Lecture- the walls in the Library Meeting Room were covered in ART. All kinds of things.....I was enchanted. Especially the black and white...stuff reminding me of my own art here on the calendar pages. While listening to the lecture I drew images from the walls in my notebook.
Re-connecting with my ART.......I know REAL artists always have something to draw on and something to draw with ........My daughter would say right now- but you ARE a real artist. I am. And I should start carrying around a small blank page notebook and a pencil or pen.....and draw what I see and what I imagine.
I watched a Hallmark Movie....A Car Mechanic finds out he is next in line for some British royal position.... so he goes to see what's what.... and fixes things....and fixes the old guy's (his new found dad) red sports car. The old guy still loves the mechanic's mom...so it all works out. Dopey but I liked it.
Been awhile since I watched Hallmark...years. But it's actually healthier than watching the NEWS. I have STOPPED COLD watching the news.....Until this Country starts electing intelligent people who know how to govern.....nothing will work the way we want it to. And as someone who lives on their Social Security check......I'm worried. That check pays for heat, lights, food etc. And taxes.
