Our Old Trusted Friend
….on this day, August 26, International Dog Day I am dedicating this page to Frances
Frances came into our lives over 14 years ago when she was only two months old. My husband has always said the she is the best dog he’s ever owned. I say he because Frances is truly my husband’s dog but in the last few years when her energy levels dropped and she was only interested in short walks I’ve become the dog walker in the family.
An Eclectic Collection of Trios
….for this week’s Thursday Trios I have a variety of subjects
Sorry for the delay for this week’s Thursday Trios. I had every intention of posting right after I returned from visiting a friend who is convalescing in long term care. While I was there the city was hit with a massive rain storm and when I got home I discovered that our internet was out. It took hours before it got up and running again.
If you have any trios you’d like to share, just copy the my link and post it into your own post and I will get a ping back.

Summer Wildflowers in the City
….Toronto has many naturalized parks where nature is encouraged and wildflowers flourish
On my many walks I love photographing flowers, cultivated and wild. The following are just some of the beautiful wildflowers that grow along the lake in my neighbourhood.
Catching Up With Tonguely, Wacky Bird and Sloth
When I go to the cottage for a few days I seem to struggle getting my posts out and then when I come home I have so many emails to read that I fall even further behind. So I’m posting the last three paintings that Kevin did for Wacky Bird Wednesday, TGIFFF (Tonguely) and Sloth Saturday all in one post.
Painting Small….Very Small
….a great way to get back into my painting groove
Last week I discovered a new painting challenge that involved using prompts and painting on 2″x2″ pieces of watercolour paper. Amy from amy@mindfulartstudio.com is hosting the Inchie Challenge for 12 days. It started on August 16 and goes to the 27th but you can start in anytime. There’s no charge for this challenge and it’s a great way to re-energize your creative juices.
On the weekend I packed up my travelling watercolour set, a brush and a few micron pens and 30 little squares that I had pre-cut. I wasn’t sure I could paint this small but once I started I was hooked. I managed to make 19 little paintings using the prompts, bundle, egg, mend and yellow. Here’s what I came up with.
