On the catwalk is a hand-painted acrylic painting in portrait format by artist Karen Kaspar.
A black cat balances on the thin bar of a wooden fence. The elegant pose with its paws placed in front of each other and its tail curved upwards gives the impression that the beautiful animal with its shiny black fur is walking on a catwalk like a model. The cat's yellow-green eyes are directed attentively to the left, conveying a sense of curiosity or concentration.
The background is abstracted in bright lime green and light green shades, suggesting a natural environment such as the foliage of bushes or trees.
The picture is painted with loose and expressive brushstrokes.

Great Blue Heron pair “doing the Tango” - from my courtship ritual series

#Wildlife #WildlifeArt #Birds #BirdsOfMastodon #BirdPhotography #Heron #Spring #Nature #Photography #WomensArt #FediArt #MastoArt #Art #Photography #ArtForSale #ArtPrints #WallArt #Prints #HomeDecor #GreetingCards #Washington #PNW

I had a chance to witness the Great Blue Herons elaborate courtship rituals at the Everett Marina in Washington state recently.
Although they don't mate for life, they form a close bond for a breeding season.
The male picks the nest site and attracts a female by displaying various courtship rituals.
In this capture the male displays neck stretching as a part of the courtship rituals to attract the female's attention and actually it looks like they're doing the tango.

"Someone has a great fire in his soul and nobody ever comes to warm themselves at it, and passers-by see nothing but a little smoke at the top of the chimney and then go on their way."

Quote in his Letter (no. 155), June 1880.

~Vincent van Gogh, born #OTD in 1856.

"Van Gogh painted this self-portrait in the winter of 1887–1888, when he had been living in Paris for nearly two years. Since his arrival in the city he had devoted much study to the dotted Pointillist technique, thereby learning how he might apply it in his own fashion. His use of brushstrokes running in a variety of directions created a self-portrait with a halo-like circle round his head. This variation and the dynamics it created were Van Gogh’s own contribution to the new style of painting." (Van Gogh Museum notice)

Perhaps the first thing one noticed was the singing of the birds -- a happy, gentle chirping that filled the air with merriness.

Or maybe it was the scenery itself, the undulating hills filling one's sight with their strength and timelessness.

Or perhaps it was both, since one can hear and see at the same time . . .

St Michael's church in Workington, Cumbria.
After a devastating fire in 1994 archaeological work on the site discovered that it was much older than first assumed, and could be one of the oldest sites of continuous Christian worship in the north of England.

I hadn't brought a book, so as tempting as it was to find a spot along the bank to settle down upon and read, I couldn't.

But that didn't stop me from finding a spot along the bank to settle down upon and listen to the stream flow by.

We have a tendency to worship cool, canny, cunning, and clever as attributes to be admired and emulated in our society.

Innocence, we feel, is naive and dumb.

But a world filled with cool, canny, cunning and clever people isn't a beautiful one, and in order to survive in it, innocence has to be wise and strong.

A slight bend, a little turn, a passing under the arches with another one just beyond -- exploring an Italian hilltop town is confusingly delightful.

You won't get lost because you're on the top of a hill, and eventually you'll reach the edge, but that doesn't mean you don't FEEL lost.

Confusingly, delightfully so.

No, Snow, I don't think you'll be around forever, although some days it feels as if it will be so.

Rumor is that Spring is on her way. She's not in a hurry, but she's most definitely planning to be here, and I think she'll have something to say about your sticking around.
