One of my favorite ways to begin a day is with the question, "So, what do you want to do today?"

Not enough days begin that way, since generally, the things that need to be done have already announced themselves, but on those days when there are no obligations, it's my favorite question to ask.

So much life had been lived in this place: the old church had looked out upon generations of families farming in this valley, people who climbed up to the hilltop city to visit its markets, walk its streets, enter its buildings.

The technology had changed but humanity had not: there were goodness and evil, greed and kindness, fear and calm.

Reality is timeless.

So many moments in the day, and they don't, really, have to all be efficient.

Of course, if we were machines, that would be different, because the very purpose of a machine is to perform a task efficiently.

But we're not machines, and we're not computers. And more importantly, we are not inferior to machines and computers.

We created them.

Theatre DeVille

The Theatre DeVille is a nightclub in Vacaville, California. The venue went through a major renovation where the new owners sunk a large amount of money into a state of the art sound system.
The building located has been occupied by a number of tenants including a theatre and a church just to name a few. The renovation to it's new form took a good part of a year.

Joe's Barber Shop

Some barber shops seem to be the center of town. Joe's is actually much newer than many of the barber shops I see in small towns. But this is very fitting for the feel that I was trying to get.
The red, white, and blue barber pole on the outside, the red leather chairs on the inside, old bottles of elixirs and what not set up on the shelf. This is my kind of place.

Sonoma Valley Creek

I was hiking the Sonoma Valley State Park in late winter/early spring after some pretty good rains.
This creek dries up by mid summer. I was lucky to come up to this park when I did as this little jewel was running fairly strong. The green hills and the moss covered rocks on the banks set this up nicely and I really enjoyed just sitting on the banks listening to nature.

Take a deep breath is a combination of ink drawing and watercolour painting by artist Karen Kaspar. A cute cat sniffs at pink carnation blossoms. The kitten has closed its eyes and seems to enjoy the scent of the flowers with a smile. Take a deep breath and relax. The black minimalist ink drawing of the cat on a white background and the loose watercolour washes of the flowers in vivid shades of pink and green create an exciting pictorial effect.

Frosty Rose ... A soft-focus depiction of a blooming yellow #rose is surrounded by muted #foliage, creating a #dreamy ambiance. The delicate petals and gentle colors evoke a sense of tranquility and natural beauty.

Well, that's what Ai has to say about this one. 😁 Here's my story:

I'm not growing roses anymore ... their natural enemies proved too much for little me. The weather, the positioning (no morning sun), the black spot, the cane borers, and not to forget our "domesticated" deer population (which was considerable), all conspired to bring an end to my rose growing days. But while I had them, one of my favorite times was in autumn when the flowers were still in bloom, but when an early morning frost came to lightly kiss each sweet petal and leaf. This image, digitally hand painted in Rebelle with their magnificent watercolor brushes, is done in memory of those days. I took the photo that this started with from a lovely bouquet of flowers given to me on the birthday of our son.The rest is memory and magic!

Golden Gate Bridge and Ft Baker

After getting fogged in at the top of the Golden Gate Bridge we took the elevator back down to the deck and this small clearing appeared.
This image captures the beauty of the Marin County the waterfront below. Below is the San Francisco Bay and then a little deeper into the background is Horseshoe Bay. Then behind Horseshoe Bay is Ft. Baker.

Sunshine Dance is an abstract acrylic painting in portrait format hand-painted by the artist Karen Kaspar.
Vibrant splashes of colour and loose brushstrokes of yellow, orange and purple blend together in an abstract design, creating a vibrant and energetic composition. Soft colour gradients and loose edges give the artwork a sense of fluidity and movement.
The sunshine dances merrily in the summer sky between the clouds.
Let the sunshine into your heart and your home!
The warm colours yellow and orange are energizing and positive and reflect happiness and optimism.

I love where I live, but while I'm traveling, I frequently see places that make me stop and think, "I'd like to live there."

But as I'm an ordinary person without the finances to own multiple homes, I just take a look, grab a reference photo, and back in my studio, paint the moment.

There were two fantastic things about that day.

The first was that she stumbled upon a new author she had never read before, and loved what was written.

The second was that she had an entire day to immerse herself in reading.

May you find a place of silence today, of calmness where you can step away from the noise -- and this noise isn't just auditory, it is visual as well, piercing our soul with its discord.

And in this silent place, may you feel the sunshine on your face, a golden glow that warms you completely, starting on the outside and working its way completely in and through your being.

What are we to believe, in a world in which we are told so many, many lies?

I start by finding some small thing that I know to be true, some element of beauty or goodness that is so right, so precious, that there is no ugliness or deceit in it.

And I build upon that.
