…Kevin’s latest wacky birds


…. A super busy summer but Kevin still found time to draw some new monsters

…it’s been a busy summer
July was busy with lots of company and getting ready for our art show, August found me spending more time at my cottage and my friend’s cottage. We also met friends at our art show and hosting a BBQ for family and friends. Last week we took the show down. I also celebrated my birthday at the end of August and I went to the CNE and an AFC Toronto game with my daughter, daughter-in-law and Winnie, my granddaughter.

…in Toronto
When my friend Liz heard that our six year old granddaughter was coming for a visit she highly recommended that we check out this park in the east end of Toronto. Anyone with children should definitely check it out for the play areas and the art trail is a great area for walking and cycling for all ages.
















There are areas where you can picnic but there are no vendors currently where you can purchase food. So be sure to bring snacks and drinks with you.

…July 10, 2026
Both Kevin and I have our calendars a bit out of whack trying to get ready for our art show. Anyway I think any day is a good day for a wacky bird.

…Thanks to Judy Dykstra-Brown for hosting the Numbers Game
This week’s number is 747. Just type it into your search box and see what photos pop up.
















…both Kevin and I are hosting our first art show together
I know that I have enough art to put on another show but I always like to create some new pieces. A while back I took a photo of a random group of buttons and I had it enlarged. In my head I envisioned stitching the buttons over the photograph and then add some more stitches around the buttons. Here is the finished piece.

For my last show I painted a mixed media meadow scene that was very popular and sold at the show. I decided to try another piece using similar techniques but this time I made it larger. It features sumacs in the foreground and spring flowers throughout the rest of this country landscape.

The show starts July 29 and runs till August 24 at Montgomery’s Inn.
