A GREEN DOOR - 6 x 6 pastel

A GREEN DOOR
6" x 6" pastel
glass + gold frame
$275 + $10 insured priority shipping


The day was sunny with clouds floating high 
above . . .  a glorious day for an adventure!
And what better place to travel to than the Taos Pueblo
steeped in history, culture and art?

At my destination, I wandered down a dusty path, 
with an alley that led to a weathered, green door. 
Not permitted to pass, I begun to wonder what
 secrets did that door hold?

How many lives entered . . .
how many smiles glowed . . . 
how many tears shed?


Only the door knows.

    Thank you Kathy and Dana.

    If neither one of you have ever been to Taos Pueblo, I definitely recommend it. Feel at peace with the Earth there.

FRIDAY BREAK

2 + A HOLE 4 1/2" x 4 1/2" pastel 8" square white archival matte, glass + gold leaf frame PRIVATE COLLECTOR It's been a long week getting everything together for the opening of Frayed , so decided I needed a sweet treat to chill out. Nothing like a frosted donut which is always so yummy! When I was young my Mother used to make homemade donuts, which is indescribable. At that time my sister and 3 brothers fought over the "holes", which were a perfect one-bite affair that always melted in our mouths. Those were the days!

MEMORIES AND FAVORITES

DIGNITY pastel SOLD - PRIVATE COLLECTOR After the holidays, I begun to reminisce of people from my past.    Reflecting, I realize that life experiences have  enriched me greatly in so many ways.  Dignity is not only of a friend I lost touch with,  but also a personal, favorite painting that went to another home. Fond memories.... gone but not forgotten.
