 Hi,everyone, I have  not  been keeping in touch  like I mean to. I have been  painting as much as I can.  I went to the Opening at Norfolk Academy and that was lovely, I did sell one of my four paintings, the Angry Chicken.  This chicken painting  had a checker board tail. I have been painting just whatever  has inspired me, mostly  spring things. I love all the beautiful  colors popping out every  where. Next Saturday I will be teaching at Norfolk Botanical Garden. I always get ideas there ,it is so lovely.

You have heard me say we live in a forest,well, we are cutting the timber. This is a good thing but you by now know how much the woods and wildlife mean to me. I know it will grow back but it seems to hurt my heart when I hear the wind in the trees or just see how magnificent  they are. Silly but me...

Sadie, my lab, Jelly, our black kitten,and Cupcake, our cat,and all are well. Oops suppertime.  Gotta cook, love to each of you, Diana

Kune Kune Piglet!

Well I lost that post. Ah well. I can't get the photo up yet but am pleased I changed the Painting in my studio. Look at that.  It's next to the post. It is a  Kune Kune Piglet from Perennial Roots www.perennialroots.com . This is a farm in Accomack,Va. North of us on the Eastern Shore of Va. They are very nice people.


My art show this weekend was so so. People and friends were great but only 2 little sales. I was hoping for more but that's the way it goes sometimes. We did treat ourselves to pizza last night, I was wiped out. 


Please check out my Facebook page and like it if you will. Photos are there. This will get fixed.


We got our new dryer. The delivery man could not go under the house to install the hose so I did. Ha ha.. I did it and it works!!!


Talk to you Soon and love to each of you,Diana
