It was Bob who lifted her spirits by showing her the calendar. It was just a few days before December 21st. He reminded her that as soon as we pass that marker, there would be more light each day until Spring arrives. It was with this precious memory in mind that I created our Holiday Greeting card this year.

It took the scenic view of a beach in Hawaii thirty years ago to provoke me to action in my artwork. It wasn’t the beauty of the sand and water. No, I was sitting on a hill in the shade to protect my fair skin, a drawing pad on my knees sketching people. I noticed a woman enter the scene like walking skin and bones.

I like to paint notecards as a warm-up exercise: a way to test various color combinations, designs and motifs. If they turn out nice, I send them to family and friends. These "Polka Dot Fish" are a new experiment, 1 of 4 designs. I'm offering these card "studies" for $4 each (free postage).

I painted the original "Stormy Weather" in 1994, after pressing for answers about my uncle’s suicide. He took his life when my mother was a young woman. He was her older brother who taught her to play the guitar; he taught her the song Stormy Weather, which was popular at the time.

Recently it occurred to me that I do have something worth sharing and the creation of my first zine came together quite easily.
