so...this beautiful full moon
and an abundance of milkweed pods
all good signs...AND typepad has a free option, didn't know
so, false alarm, here I am...and I'll stay :)
can't figure out yet how to change this lovely GREEN color, but surely this can't be the only choice...even for free
It's been quite a run...but this past few years the art blog phenomenon that so enriched my creative life has shifted
lots has changed...Tess is all grown up and married...she and Pete hosted us this Thanksgiving at their lovely new home
the vast majority of art blogs have gone to facebook and it is not the same
Instagram has become a better platform for me right now
https://www.instagram.com/rodrigvitzstyle/?hl=en
so please...if anyone is out there, follow me there
also my website
I am exploring ways to incorporate more blog like interaction on my website
It's been a great ride!
adios from here...
on the water...only me and the birds
and the gift to draw from the eagles
this majestic guy
speaking to me of life and dignity
others around me struggle
I can let this calm me as I send love and light their way
and the sentinels
calm even though being buzzed by many little insects
zooming in to view the power held in check
and savoring the gift.
nearly every morning...I don't tire of the calm water, the blue skies...the eagles
sometimes 1...sometimes 2, sometimes 3...always a site to see.
the sunflowers bring the pollinators...this little partly chewed moth is drunk on sunflower,
gold finch love them too but I have not had a visitation in these early blooming days
flying from one plant to another
sweet sweet summertime.
the view from here...the garden flourishing
we changed up our bird feeder habits, no more sunflower seeds, trying to get the sparrows to go somewhere else,
a new black nyjer/thistle sock to attract the gold finch...
and they came! Two of them and the house wren's loving the safflower seed
I draw...and draw and draw
mostly from what is in front of me

how I love these!! It may well be her painting, not a photo, not sure
my interpretation
this summer I want to push myself to draw from my head, my vocabulary
hard.for.me.to.do
Luzia, the newest Cirque du Soleil
a mezmerizing, magical....walking dream of Mexico
every visual so close to my heART
happy to have shared this with Tess and Pete and Greg
I received a survey request after the show....
questions like Did you know much about Mexico before seeing Luzia? Did watching the show give you a different view of Mexico, the people and the culture? Do you wish to visit Mexico now after seeing the show?
Thank you Luzia for sharing your love and appreciation of this amazing country using your very special vision
I'm going back to see it again
Denver.
another great location for work travel...Nashville
For the first 2 days I was in the suburbs, nothing to do, nowhere to walk
I moved downtown for the rest of the week
if I have to travel I need to be somewhere interesting if that is possible...
I saw a very interesting photography exhibit of the work of Irving Penn at the First Center for the Visual Arts
the building is an art deco post office turned galleries and music venues
and a walk to my now favorite Nashville coffee shop...Frothy Monkey
my coworker and I had dinner at Acme Feed and Seed, a large reclaimed warehouse space with good food and great music
we then walked over to the Shelby St pedestrian bridge to watch the full moon rise...we waited and waited
and finally
it rose in perfect conjunction with the bridge
Here I am.
