My daily draw/watercolour. Day 95 of #the100dayproject. My Valentine’s bouquet is long past due. Now that I’ve captured it, I can let it go. As you can see, my table is in its usual mess.A memory of Sheba checking out squirrels up the tree. She left us 2 years ago yesterday.Our very last squash from fall harvest. A Sweet Mama. Will be part of soup for lunch. I will add radish greens from the greenhouse to the mix. A cool morning. We had a bit of rain overnight. There’s forecast of minus night temps later in the week. I wonder what kind of summer we will have this year.My daily draw/watercolour. Day 94 of #the100dayproject Trying something outside my usual. I love flowers but not fond of painting them because they are not easy.Caught the culprit - scarlet lily beetle snacking on my plant. I did away with it. I hear they can eat up all your lilies. Good thing they don’t care for day lilies.Tulips in bloom.My daily draw/watercolour. Day 93 of #the100dayproject. Ghanaian youths posing for my camera 2011. These are children of colour as I am a woman of colour. I’m thinking of the shooting in Buffalo where black people were targeted by an 18 year old white boy. Ten people were killed. I wonder when he had time to learn to hate.The first tomato - Red Alert - in the greenhouse.Sun after a rainy cloudy day. A bit breezy but still nice enough to enjoy a cuppa outside.My daily draw/watercolour. Day 92 of #the100dayproject. Back to nature - a pelican at the Prince Albert National Park. Photo reference @flora_bora. A lot of greens. I had to use my pen to tone it down and create more definition.Instagram

IN AND OUT OF THE WOODS
I’m back from the woods again. I can feel the vibrations of busyness as I enter the city limits – the hum of electricity and traffic. I can smell the aroma of fast food and concrete along Idylwyld Drive. The … Continue reading

THE RECYCLE IN REUSE, REDUCE
My live-in has a passion for building new things out of old and has given a whole new meaning to recycle. He feels he has a mission to rescue discarded bikes out of landfills, back alleys and wherever else they … Continue reading
