“Recap”? What does that really mean? Just another piece of slang that we all accept, like “wrap up”. Sometimes I think I am losing my ability to speak real words, hence “do-over” “yucky” and “funner” in a recent post. But, I digress. The Stocking Stuffer Boutique went well. Six of us shared a vacant business […]
THE CABINS OF WILSONIA BOOK SIGNING
The books, The Cabins of Wilsonia, are supposed to arrive today. This may mean they arrive at some truck depot in Fresno where they sit over the weekend or it may mean a big rig comes to the hardware store in Three Rivers. (Bless Mike McCoy and the Three Rivers Mercantile for making their turn-around space […]
Stocking Stuffer Boutique
What is a “boutique” anyway? It isn’t a bazaar. Is it like “luncheon” as opposed to “lunch”? The dictionary uses the words “sophisticated” and “specialized” to explain a boutique. (Nope, didn’t look up bazaar – I saved that for you.) Sophisticated? Me? har har har har har. . . I’m from Tulare County, a Realistic […]
Perfect Gift Boutique Post-Game
Perfect Gift Boutique Post-Game? Remember when the terms “pre-game” and “post-game” weren’t used? It is a sports/television term. “Wrap-up” also works, as does the stuffier sounding “evaluation”. The weather was beautiful, so the day after Thanksgiving was a busy one. It was a little hard to be indoors, but I managed to corral my independent […]
The Perfect Gift Boutique
First of all, in case anyone is wondering, I am thankful. Very thankful for many things. Didn’t want you to wonder, since I’ve turned Thanksgiving into a commercial here on my blog. (This is because I forgot to post it on Wednesday. Besides, who reads blogs on Thanksgiving anyway??) The 13th Annual Perfect Gift Boutique […]
Bazaar in Photos
I live within walking distance of the Bazaar. This is what I saw on my way to work Saturday. When I got there, I was relieved to see that my booth did not look like a garage sale., which is a concern each time I set up in a different location. Even though booth sizes […]

The 2015 Calendar is HERE!
The new calendar for 2015 has arrived! These are my best oil paintings. Sort of. My best oil paintings that fit the calendar format and fit the months. Sort of. The best blend of my best oil paintings that sort of fit the calendar format and sort of fit the months. It is called […]
A Well-Organized Show in Visalia
The organizers provided pop-up tent-tops, lunch and handled all the filthy lucre. I began the day with high expectations and much optimism. The pop-up tent was 10’x10′ in theory. In reality, it tapered inward, so instead of fitting all 6 of my display screens, only 5 would fit. So, quite a few paintings didn’t make […]
