I am still keeping busy creating my “one of a kind” greeting cards. Keeping things simple. Other than puttindg a coat of gesso on a 24″ x 24″ canvas I haven’t spent any time at my easel. Not since coming home from Mexico. I haven’t felt like it. I thought that I had lots of inspiration and was ready to get busy but as soon as I stand at my easel all is lost. Perhaps I have a bit of a block happening? On the other hand I am able to create these cards. A veritable plethora of them. I am having fun with them, they make me smile. That is sufficient, for now.

We are still enjoying our much needed extended vacation in Ixtapa. It’s been a tuff couple of years and an even ruffer 8 months or so. Family issues have taken up a lot of our time and energy. It’s been wonderful to escape and take care of us instead of everyone else. The photos are some what self explanatory. The sunsets are glorious. The palapa is being rebuilt after a fire destroyed it. There are many pangas, boats used by the locals for everything. The iguanas are numerous and interesting. We spend hours watching the ocean and waves. There have been dolphin sightings and even a humpback whale or two. Normally we don’t take selfies. Mostly because we suck at it. But sometimes people want to see us in a photo so I attached the two selfies that we dared to take. Worth a laugh if nothing else.
I hope you are enjoying a glimpse into our vacation. We are relaxed. And that is important. Cheers Susan and Carey
Sights and colours of Ixtapa and Zihuatanejo….

You will have to imagine the sounds. Eventually this wonderful escape will have to come to an end. But we will enjoy it while we are here. Reality will rear it’s ugly head soon enough. Cheers Susan
If you like sunsets….have a look at these.

If you like a spectacular sunset Ixtapa Mexico is the place to partake. I grew up on the west coast of British Columbia so I know a good sunset when I see it. Just saying! ENJOY Cheers Susan

New art!! So new it’s still drying on my easel and I have just given it a title, “Sunny Disposition”.
It’s something bright and cheerful just for you on what is a rather dull day here in the Shuswap Lake area of British Columbia.
I have included photos of my process and progress. One photo also shows how I finish the sides of every painting I do on a gallery canvas.
Fingers crossed it cheers everyone. I do like it when my art causes smiles.

I completed my latest project today. Photo credit and inspiration goes to my very talented Aunt Helen Worley ❤️ Thank you so much for letting me use your amazing photo. This is a sunrise and cloud fan over Semiahmoo spit with Mount Baker in the background. Semiahmoo is in northwest Washington state. My Aunt Helen named the painting “Morning Breaks”. Happily this painting also immediately sold 🔴 to my aunt the photographer. Thank you again ❤️

I am fortunate to have my art. Since I started painting in 2009 it’s always gotten me through the tuff times in life. This week I found solace once again. Like taking small steps everyday to move on I started with small things like cards. I then moved onto a bigger canvas. I will share photos of that when I am done but I am sharing photos of the four cards I made. The cards are now available at Rikki Lou Who’s Gift Emporium downtown Salmon Arm on Alexander St.
