Travel Now

Whatever your plans are to travel in the future, sit back wherever you are now and let your imagination and plein air artist Roelof Rossouw take you on a vacation perhaps to the seaside marina and carnival he so vividly and joyfully captured for us. Enjoy. Relax and sleep well. Good night. 🌙

Jennifer Vranes: O those glorious trees!

An Oregon-based contemporary landscape artist best known for her vivid paintings of Aspen forests and European landscapes.  I was first delighted to come across her paintings of trees (especially as a 'tree-hugger') and then discovered her lush paintings of Tuscany vineyards.  Enjoy!

Today's Smile!

I was sitting in the next room, watching TV, when my 6-pound Morky, Pixie, started barking demandingly from the bedroom.  I looked over and saw her standing at the foot of our queen-sized bed, otherwise known as her playground, looking at me intently and continuing to call me with her loud barking.  “You can come here, Pixie, “ I said encouragingly.  “Come on.”  Instead, she disappeared from my sight, raced to her toy box at the top of the bed, grabbed her favorite chew toy, and raced back into my sight at the foot of the bed.  She tossed the bone into the air, caught it and then looked at me brightly to let me know that she expected me to get up and come play with her.  Astonished, I did just that. Tossing her bone back to her, all I could say was, "How funny are you!"
