How could 50 years go by so fast???<br />
I am so glad to still have this man beside me as we celebrate this big milestone.<br />
What a great ride we have been on together all these years.<br />
What comes next, I do not know but together we have proven we can meet it head on ...<br />
As each year goes faster I am amazed how much has changed, and how we can adapt to so many changes.<br />
Thank you, Wy for being the one throughout this wonderful life of ours.<br />
I will always love you, and I do still like YOU that much....Sandipaintshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02068205515886650400noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-432526789576158155.post-16311279457540570352019-04-24T07:30:00.000-04:002019-04-24T07:30:42.838-04:00April 24th. 2019 <br />

We arrived in the mountains just in time to watch springtime unfolding.<br />
WOW is it ever beautiful...<br />
This is Baxters first road trip with us and he was a real trooper.<br />
We are getting some things done that have needed work and are tired but happy to see some progress.<br />
The weather has been very nice so far, cold the first evening but 60 this morning and 80 with a breeze yesterday afternoon with the same for today......<br />
We are painting the deck today, trying to beat the rain expected toward the end of this week, so it's back to work for me right now..<br />
I hope everyone is having a good week so far <br />
By for now.....Sandipaintshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02068205515886650400noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-432526789576158155.post-27465758876326735762019-03-08T08:48:00.001-05:002019-03-08T08:48:13.416-05:003rd Month 8th Day 2019<br />

How in the world did it get to be so long since I was back here to write ???<br />
We are really keeping busy and trying to get out and about while it is still a bit cool here.<br />
Thank You Thank You!!!!<br />
I have begun to play with the web site Guru Shots and am really having fun with it ...<br />
Even though I am not considered a photographer,<br />
I do take pictures daily...With my phone, neither camera is as good as my phone, so happy to use it...<br />
Anyway, you should really check out that web site.<br />
We visited Lettuce Lake Park yesterday and it was such a beautiful day I was able to take lots of great pictures in nature...<br />

<br />
I am trying again to add things I have done to my ETSY store.<br />
First off is this, Sandipaints Vine Signs, and it is called HOPE. It is a small sign of encouragement which we could all use at some time in our lives.<br />
I have just recently painted this gallery wrapped, ready to hang, vine sign.<br />
By using vines, flowers, and insects to write a message oh encouragement i<br />
I am having so much fun coming up with the ideas for this fun new art form...<br />
The sign is on a 4x12 inch canvas and I used Acrylic paints, I also varnished it to protect the finish from bumps and scratches.<br />
I was very excited to be able to participate in this years Inktober2018 and did all 31 of those... So much fun....<br />
If you follow me on Facebook or Instagram you have already seen these so I will try not to post too many of them here...<br />

I am teaching this tonight for a painting with a purpose.<br />
The Affirmations project is sponsoring it for cancer survivors and we have sold out both classrooms.<br />
Thank you to everyone who has signed up with us tonight to support this cause...and paint this picture...<br />
It should be fun and I am excited to be a part of it...<br />
I hope everyone has a creative week...<br />

I was so excited to be able to get to see all the new changes in Jenn's family home..<br />
It is beautiful and well worth the effort put into it to make such a comfy, cozy environment...<br />
I was also so happy to get to see Becky and meet her son, what a cutie, and at 10 months starting to walk...so much fun to watch....<br />
I was able to see so many more members of the family and friends as they gathered at Jenn's to meet up, to go to the Gorge together, for the Phish concert there...<br />
They all said what a great time was had there and they came home tired and happy...<br />
.Aidan and I held down the fort and were quite happy to spend a quiet weekend together in what feels like a brand new home...<br />
Time sure flies when you are having fun, and now I have been home and back to work for about a week ...<br />
WOW what a great July !!!!<br />
Have a nice Sunday, Relax and just Breathe.....<br />
<br />

I was able to get some other artwork finished while I was in Seattle.<br />
I was having some fun with Pastels, doing these when we stumbled upon a really nice art store in downtown Edmonds.<br />
I purchased a few pastel pencils that were made in France, and I am really glad I did. one of the results of using these....The sunflower.<br />
It is the only example of the pencils, but more to come soon....<br />
Jenn has set up the perfect atmosphere for the all the birds and small animals in her area and I was amazed to get to observe and photograph many different breeds, that made it possible to then sketch them too...<br />
I have to get moving this morning so more to come on the Seattle trip...<br />
Hope everyone has a peaceful weekend... Bye for now<br />

I had a very fun, very busy July this year...<br />
Thank You!, Thank You!, Thank You!!!<br />
The first two weeks I spent with family in North Carolina, celebrating Woody's birthday.<br />
We had so much fun, and It went by way to fast...<br />
I also decided to try #worldwatercolormonth, but because I have no more wall space I started doing very small, calendar size, watercolor paintings...Not like me at all, I paint large, and mostly in acrylic paints... I had a great time with the watercolors and the size even though I had a tendency to overwork some of the paintings I am overall pleased with the results and with what I learned along the way... I ended up doing 46 of them.<br />
The second half of July I spent in Seattle, Washington with more family, and I got to see all the improvements that have been made there, as well as, enjoy spending time with the boy...<br />
He is growing and changing so fast and is going to be a first grader this year. Wow!!!<br />
Time is moving at lightning speed ...<br />
It is back to work for me today so I best get busy now.<br />
Hope everyone has a good week and weekend....<br />
<br />

We have had a great time celebrating an early birthday, in the mountains, with Woody and family...<br />
So much fun putting together a book of all our adventures together through these many years... Seeing the delight on his face says it all.....<br />
#Watercolormonth is here and I have never participated before, but, with no more wall space or even other space to hang paintings, I decided to try making a calendar of much smaller paintings...<br />
Not like me at all, I paint large and have not been successful with some, but very happy with others...<br />
I have overworked some a bit, as you will see as the month progresses...<br />
I am painting ahead a bit because I am flying to Seattle in a few days and will not have time to get to it then...<br />
The small calendar paintings were not my original idea but I saw it done by another artist on Facebook and borrowed it...<br />
The picture is of the first four days ...<br />

I do not seem to have the before photo, but this is the after...<br />
<br />
My last blog entry I mentioned that I had been rearranging the paintings , so many paintings so little wall space, time for a something different to start off the new year....<br />
We are having another cold snap this week and are starting off with a temperature of 39 degrees<br />
Believe me that is cold for what we are used to here in Florida....<br />
I am one who does need a bit of cool ,to be able to get through the long periods of heat...<br />

I am loving the results of these pens on the black paper backgrounds....<br />
Some pens are the chalk pens and some are the metallic pens ,<br />
So much fun to see how bright they turn out....<br />
If you have not tried these,I think you might really have some fun with them....<br />
Anyone else out there trying something new to you and having fun, happy results with it???<br />
If you are, I would love for you to share so I can see and enjoy too ....<br />
I have had a bit of extra time off, so making creative use of it is what I do...<br />
The weather has been unusually cool here for way longer then we are used to, so I have been keeping pretty busy inside,between rearranging and cleaning and, imperfect doodles and brand new pens of all kinds... The fun never ends....or so it seems right now...<br />
I will try to remember to post some of the rearranging photos soon....<br />
Anyway it is back to work I go a bit later today so I best get busy around here ..<br />
Hope everyone has a beautiful, creative Sunday...<br />

We had a great time ,on a beautiful cool day,celebrating my birthday.<br />
We went to lunch at Rusty Bellies in Tarpon Springs. It was so yummy... and not just because of the two Bloody Mary's I consumed.<br />
We headed to Fred Howard Park for a breezy walk on the beach ...<br />
The first one in a long time...<br />
and then home to relax, just in time to see these guys on the bank behind the house....<br />
Am I so old now that these buzzards are circling or what the f....???<br />
Anyway I wish everyone a very nice day and hope you are keeping warm....<br />
<br />
P.S. We are not doing the 30 paintings in 30 days until February...Just in case you were wondering....Sandipaintshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02068205515886650400noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-432526789576158155.post-83768326217728989672018-01-03T15:31:00.000-05:002018-01-03T15:31:01.048-05:00Jan.3,2018<br />

I have really been enjoying coloring in my new Imperfect Doodles book that Wy order from England for me... I am using the new double sided pens that I got for my birthday.. They are great Thank You Thank You Thank You!!!!<br />
Nice to have this to do when the weather is acting so crazy [,Snow in Florida?? What??] and I am spending more time inside.. I can only clean for so long before I need to get creative again....<br />
I have been getting things in a bit of order as well...and feeling better about cleaning things up....<br />
<br />
In November I was invited to teach a group of pre-school teacher students how to teach children to do self-portraits ...<br />
Each of the students did a great job on their own portraits and I really enjoyed watching each of them create theirs as they processed how it will be to teach this to pre-school children.... ....<br />

I drew my own Christmas Cards this year for the first time ever...<br />
Did not even get them all sent out but after not sending out cards for many years it was fun to make my own....<br />
It has been a very nice holiday season here and I am a bit sad to see it all end so quickly...<br />
I have put everything away and cleaned up and our neighborhood is back to quiet.... weird....after all the bright lights and motion for weeks...It was so much fun to see the excitement of young and old alike coming to see the Christmas lights ..we could here the children yell to Santa when they saw him throw his bag of toys over his shoulder through the window....<br />
I wonder what this whole New Year will bring...<br />
Bring it on ,We are ready....2018 <br />
Happy New Year one and all.....<br />

OK SO I DO NOT HAVE PEOPLE down yet...<br />
I have picked a very awkward view as well...<br />
I have more work to do on it, but for now.....<br />
Anyway... I am trying not to be disappointed in this painting<br />
I have not put in shading or background, so we shall see...<br />
I am very excited to go help with a class at U.S.F. today,<br />
The students are painting a mural,adventures with color...<br />
Should be great fun... Something new for me.....<br />
I sure hope this next storm spares lives, and heads back out into the ocean...Sandipaintshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02068205515886650400noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-432526789576158155.post-28869534051462500822017-09-18T09:03:00.000-04:002017-09-18T09:03:47.250-04:00That Time Again<br />

I am going to start the 30 in 30 days by working on my people skills...<br />
Painting Aidan and his friends splashing in the waves....<br />
.As my first, I am pleased even though it does not look a lot like Aidan...<br />
I am using acrylic paints on canvas pad ...<br />
No more room on the walls.....<br />
I am aware that this is day 18 but it took me this long to figure out how to get the pictures onto the blog page....<br />
Now that I know how Look Out Here it comes....<br />
Have a great day all....<br />

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">It has been a year since we have been able to get up here to the mountains, and I can feel myself starting to relax a bit... not there all the way yet, but hopefully it won't take much longer... I love that life is at a little slower pace here....</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">We are going to Asheville tonight to see Holly Bowling, and having seen her before, I am so looking forward to it... </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">It is still acting like winter here, with the temperature of 42 as we speak,but yesterday afternoon it went to 72 so we opened up all the windows and doors ...man was that nice... </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">I had so much fun on spring break, surprising Jenn, by showing up to help celebrate her 40th....</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">Amy and I had a ball spending time with family in Seattle...</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">Went to a Sip,Dip and Doodle for Jenn's birthday party and I got to see Becky there...</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">So much fun to get to paint with everyone....</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">Thank You to all Jenn's friends for coming to celebrate, and helping us to get it all together for a big surprise....</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">I painted 40 rocks for Jenn ....{ and it does}</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">It went by so fast, but we made good memories to last....</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"> I did not mean to go on and on, but it has been a while, so, to much to fit in to one entry.... closing for now, but I will be back...</span><br />

<br />
It has been a week ...<br />
our computer is at the shop so learning how to get things from here to there has been a bit different for me, [The one who likes things to always be the same]....<br />
I have lots more pictures to share ,but I will not be able to until the old one comes back on Tuesday... I have to many tubs of slaw for all this right now, but will be back to it real soon.... Hope you all have a great weekend and stay safe....Sandipaintshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02068205515886650400noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-432526789576158155.post-8274962573527637622017-01-10T16:04:00.000-05:002017-01-10T16:04:36.563-05:00Days 9 and 10<br />

Molly<br />
<br />
Not only was I a day behind but now they loaded sideways....<br />
Anyway I used colored pencil and a blending tool to do both of these....<br />
Molly was all covered up under her new blanket and finally warm and snuggled....<br />
The cuppa is a cup I like with my permanent chalk markers in it.....<br />
We are at 69 degrees today and a bit cloudy, all the doors and windows open and a light breeze is blowing through....<br />
Hope your week is going well.....Sandipaintshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02068205515886650400noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-432526789576158155.post-61529170006617999742017-01-08T16:44:00.000-05:002017-01-08T16:44:02.701-05:00Day 8 of 30 in 30 Days<br />

Little Buddy<br />
16x20<br />
Acrylic on Canvas<br />
<br />
I just finished this one and am happy to have done so...<br />
I did the sketch for it last year, and wanted to get it on canvas before the season is gone again...<br />
It is the first one I have painted for the January challenge,but glad to have it....<br />
It is so cool today I could almost say cold....<br />
Nice to have one day of winter....<br />
Seems a good idea to have painted snowmen... I have painted two pre-paints today also, for classes coming up....<br />
Hope everyone is able to keep warm and safe....<br />

Me<br />
I do not do portraits,<br />
but I decided to try a self portrait,just to see if I could do it....and to get some practice at faces...<br />
I really do not know, Is this what I look like????<br />
I do know I see myself differently then other people see me...<br />
But is this what you guys see?????<br />
I did this from a photo and am fairly happy with it, but am not sure it looks like me....<br />
It is pouring down rain outside... and it started last night before 11 p.m.<br />
It woke me at 3 a.m. and at 4:30.<br />
I have now been up over an hour and it is raining hard off and on... <br />
Are we making up some, for the three months that we have not had any?? <br />
The temp. is going to be dropping fast, as this cold front comes through..<br />
and it is supposed to be 32 when we get up tomorrow...<br />
It is 72 this morning...<br />
Very happy to have the rain....<br />
Thank You, Thank You, Thank You!!!!!<br />
Have a very happy Saturday and stay safe.....<br />

Lucy<br />
<br />
Lucy is home now and what a sweetie she is ...<br />
She is now going to doggy day care at the same place,that they have been taking care of her, for the past 6 months.<br />
She gets very excited, to get up and get going, back to see all her friends there each day....<br />
She is also very excited to get home each evening as well....<br />
So cute....<br />
I am sure having fun doing these last few sketches in pencil....<br />
Amy surprised me yesterday at 7 a.m, by stopping by our house with Star Bucks peppermint coco coffee,after she dropped off Lucy, and before she went to work...<br />
Thank You so much for a great start to the day, Amy...<br />
My moment of Zen to add to my Happy Moment A Day Jar....<br />
<br />
We had a very busy day in the Get smart with Art class....<br />

<br />
<br />
We did three projects in an hours time ,I was only able to get photos of the first two, but how cute are these guys, working so hard and fast and having a ball doing it.....<br />
My last two classes at PWAT have been cancelled due to lack of sign ups....<br />
so I am keeping busy with other things, like cleaning out closets and donating to a good cause...<br />
I have not done this since we moved in here a year and a half ago so, many thing must go......<br />
