In our not-too-long-ago past, there used to be little fishing villages where the guys go out every morning and come back with their boats laden with fishies. When they return when dusk is on the rosy horizon, the women and chilluns gather round down on the strand and dance and sing, celebrating the good catch […]

SING THE SEA
I wonder sometimes if there are invisible goddesses who Sing the Sea into Being. Maybe there are some days they allow themselves to be seen. At first I drew them touching their own faces. But it looked like they were scared. Can’t have goddesses looking scared! So I ended up with this design because it […]
COONS & FRIENDS
I bet you thought those raccoons were going to eat those fishies! Nope! They jump into the river under the vines, scoop up the fishies in their hands, and flinnnnng them into the air, everybody laughing as the wee little fishies scream in delight! I love seeing them play – they’re like little kids, totally […]
DOLPHINS & FRIENDS
Instead of exploiting, we oughta be saving/preserving/protecting the ocean and the whales, dolphins, fishies, and other ocean critters. I despair when I see stories about ships scraping the ocean bottom with their nets. I don’t understand how they can possibly ignore both the short-term and long-term damage. Don’t they get that if they destroy the […]
FOUNTAIN of LIFE
Someone asked, what would happen if we jumped out of the Fountain? We all looked at each other, and a silent YES reverberated through each one of us. So we all, all at once, jumped right out of the fountain and into the air! We splashed and played until the sun went down, and swam […]
ROCKY LOVES FISHIES for DINNER
When I was a kid, I used to love watching the resident raccoons wash their food. I thought they were the most fastidious critters I’d ever seen. Then one morning on my way past the trash bins on my way to the bus stop, The raccoons had tipped over one of the bins and there […]
THE GOOD CATCH
In our not-too-long-ago past, there used to be little fishing villages where the guys go out every morning and come back with their boats laden with fishies. When they return at dusk on the rosy horizon, the women and chilluns gather round down on the strand and dance and sing, celebrating the good catch as […]
FISHY LOBSTER FEAST
Today we had 101 degree heat. I melt at such high temps. My mind disappears into the deepest crack in the sea, and try as I might to sit up and work, my body refuses to function. Just about all I can do is turn on the AC and get horizontal until the house has […]
WHY AREN’T THEY BITING?
My newest scarf! It’s 26″ square, rich colors on a lovely pure silk charmeuse – I love it! A friend told me about how he’d gone fishing, and actually watched as the fish gathered around his hook and bait and, laughing all the way to town, didn’t bite all day! He never could figure out […]
MOON GODDESS
I keep getting these kind of allegorical images in my dreams. They look like they ought to be part of some huge mural somewhere. I like that they have these lines of energy running through them – I’ve never painted that before. I see the lines, but have never depicted them. If you look through […]
