I love springtime! Everything is so fresh, so green, so full of blooming life. And the mosquitos and other annoying bugs aren’t out yet, so I can sit on my doorstep and enjoy the blossoms and scents without getting eaten … Continue reading

I wasn’t planning anything of any great importance when I set out to draw this one. It took me by surprise! All I wanted to do was see if I could draw something using steps as a foundational theme. So … Continue reading
I had a dream this morning where all these funny looking folks were out playing in the trees. They were climbing and swinging and diving and flying and just being loud and laughy and silly, being naughty and having way … Continue reading
I have always liked the feathery leaves of fennel. I’ve painted it a few times, and was never really satisfied with the results. But drawing it this way gives me a look I really like. I think this image would … Continue reading
I did an experiment back in the mid-80s. I decided to go on walkabout – or, since I’d be living in my truck, I called it truckabout. Because for years, I had had this niggling feeling in the back of … Continue reading
A long time ago, I had a friend who had two kitties who loved each other. She found them soaking wet and freezing in a turned-over garbage bin in back of a store she worked at. She took them home … Continue reading
They’re still at it, but now the leaves look like they’re tired. The leaves, drooping now, look like little boats trying to drain themselves of excess water. The holes are still on the edges – no bites on the surfaces … Continue reading
I told you about the way the cattypillars are munching pretty little round holes in the sides of the Red Bud tree leaves, starting at the edges and moving in towards the center. I have been amazed that that hasn’t … Continue reading
This remains a mystery! You know how yesterday I said there are cattypillars chewing pretty little round holes in some of my Red Bud tree leaves? I noticed something intriguing about them this morning: they only eat around the edges … Continue reading
Sun + leaves = glory and delight! There are two times each day when the sun filters through the leaves of my Red Bud tree, lighting it up like stained glass. I never get tired of seeing it. The way … Continue reading
It’s hard for me to to believe, but it’s been almost seven years since I left my home in Hawaii. I miss it terribly. Hawaii is my Heart Home. It’s taken me forever to get over the shock and trauma … Continue reading
Being in my garden is always a special treat – even though it’s there, every day, every day, sometimes I forget. Weird, no? How could I??? When I wander in the garden, sweet energies weave and whisp throughout the invisible … Continue reading
Arnica promotes healing; is antimicrobial and antiseptic. I’ve used Arnica for years – both in salve and homeopathic forms. It works great, especially for some forms of artritis (which I like to call arth-wrong-iss) and carpel tunnel. Except it doesn’t … Continue reading
I’m entranced by this design – sometimes my designs captivate me, and this one certainly does. I enlarged it on my screen, and can hardly look away from it. You may not know this, but I set the intention a … Continue reading
Three goodies for you today! I have so many designs just sitting in little folders on my desktop, each one begging me to let it come to the light and be seen! So today you get not one, not two, … Continue reading
I fully believe that no matter the intensity and depth of the swamp and the mire and the mud and the insanity that we are going through – and probably will go through a lot more of in the coming … Continue reading
As you know, I’ve been recovering from a two-month ordeal of having been environmentally poisoned. Doing the requisite rest everyone tells me to do drives me crazy – seems like it makes the healing take longer than I’d like. I … Continue reading
This is why I haven’t written since January. I was physically and mentally incapable of writing at all. For two months. I awoke on Christmas Day to the stench of something dead in my house. Within an hour, I was … Continue reading
What if you could top chewing on your pain? It’s tiring, boring, and it’s just spiraling you deep into exhaustion. Right now you’re probably stuck in a closed mental/emotional loop that goes nowhere, and makes you feel bad, badder, and … Continue reading
I want to share this with you right quick – I just ordered one of these magnificent rugs for myself!!! I rarely get to keep my own pieces, so I’m excited! The top image shows a rug made for a … Continue reading
Over the past few weeks, I have found myself glued to my screen, watching tiktok and FB reels. I come into my studio with a long list of things to do – and every single one of those items promptly … Continue reading
You do! I value YOU, and every one of the people who show up, view, appreciate and buy my work, make comments, send support dollars – it means the world to me! I wish you a very happy after-Christmas/holiday-in-between week, … Continue reading
I had a dream tonight that woke me up and made me come running here into my studio to sit down and write it out. In my dream, all of my light-filled friends and allies in the entire world got … Continue reading
An enormous spout of splashy water came fountaining up – and up – and up – Every once in a while, the amount I miss the beach almost clobbers me down onto my knees. I miss the sounds, the waves, … Continue reading
I’m almost done with Medium. I’m disgusted. The other day, I posted that it was my birthday. That post got 18 claps. Really? You supposedly read my post, clapped, but didn’t even have the courtesy to wish me a happy … Continue reading
Today it’s my birthday – I can hardly believe I have lived this long. I frankly never thought I’d make it past 26. (We won’t talk about Ms Wild Child in the past, now, will we!?!) I posted on my … Continue reading
I have been targeted lately by some chin*se assholes who keep asking me if I have registered some of my websites in ch*na, and that they want to do so, themselves. Even going as far as wanting to register angelatreatlyon.com. … Continue reading
I guess I’m just the typical 79-year-old teenager who never got over loving and fantasizing about having horses. . My parents had a boat we got to sail all summer – they said that was enough! No horses! I said, … Continue reading
There is so much threatening our freedom right now! So – what to DO??? Happy Thanksgiving Day to all who celebrate, and to all who do not! I choose this image named Possibilities for today because times are scary right … Continue reading
I got all the way to my mid-teens before it suddenly came home to me one day that other people didn’t just suddenly get complete downloads of ideas the way I did. People asked me, “Where do you get your … Continue reading
