This post is the beginning of a week of Fall photos. Last Wednesday’s photos were taken before the color peaked. Some of today’s photos will be an updated version of last week’s. (Hi, Leaf-Peeper from Kentucky!) P.S. The Senior League Holiday Bazaar was well attended and very enjoyable. Here are 3 photos of it.( Thanks […]
Three Rivers Memorial Building Show Today
Autumn in Three Rivers
Today’s post is a peek into what passes for fall in the foothills of Central California. Yes, this is a redbud in bloom. Go figure!
Superlatives!
Tulare County is a place of superlatives. Sadly, we rank highest in the nation in being fat, uneducated, diabetic, poor; we make more teenage moms, have terrible unemployment and the dirtiest air. Ready to run away screaming yet? I don’t know all the specific statistics, only that we are either the “best” at those terrible […]
Daily Painting 13
Hidden Gardens 2, 8×8″, $75 Historic adobe house, lavender farm, fabulous garden, and a view of the fake Comb Rocks. The real Comb Rocks is out the the frame to the left. (It’s a Three Rivers thing, with apologies to those of you who are wondering what I’m going on about.) The number of available […]

The show continues at the Tulare Historical Museum. The address is 444 W. Tulare Street and the phone # is 559-686-2074.

Glad she has a sense of humor […]

Images of Home, Continued
Here is a continuing peek at the new paintings in the Tulare Historical Museum. Of course they look better in “real”, but for Cousin Maggie and other long distance friends, this is the fulfillment of my promise to show the paintings. Tulare County Barn, 10×10″, oil on wrapped canvas, $125 When I was a kid, […]
Lovely diversion
The wage-earning husband found himself with the afternoon off. The self-employed artist wife has a hard time saying no to fun interruptions when there are no pressing deadlines. We took a bikeride. We stopped on the bridge. Looking upstream, the eagle-eyed husband noticed a raft coming; see it? Looks downright scary to me! We continued […]
Morning walk in Three Rivers
Kind of handy to be able to combine exercise with gathering inspiration for new work, wouldn’t you say? Here are some of my usual scenes and thoughts (although I’ve been told my thoughts are rather unusual, and occasionally downright weird.) The beautiful wooden garage doors, the arched gate and the odd coincidence of star jasmine […]
