goodness.

there were just 4 butterflies working on the flowers at the same time!
cheese had to investigate the action.
there was also a little grasshopper hanging out in a flower and 2
cute mushrooms sprouted up out of the flower pot. i have been
noticing lots of mushrooms lately around town which is neat
to me since i have been painting them lately.

tonight was a great night hanging out with friends and
working on arts and crafts! i was lucky enough to model
these shirts for my friend mike who has the great
website www.lionforcepride.com . check it out and see the
coolest shirts he and my best friend tracy (his beautiful
wife) make. you can get one of your very own! i love them!
(the shirts AND mike and tracy! issah and nyah too!)

art-o-mats and kitties!

the weather turned very beautiful today.
i got inspired and took photos of some new
art-0-mats using my plants and flowers
as backdrops. tanner and cheese helped
me out. if you dont know what an art-o-mat
is, go to www.artomat.org !these mini drawings
will eventually be folded up and nailed to
blocks of wood and wrapped in cellophane
and will be dispensed out of old cigarrette machines.

i have not posted anything in a long time and these are the reasons:

1. it's so hot i can't move.
2. a new puppy came to live with us 2 weeks ago. his name is sunny.
3. work and headaches.

i have been working on art-o-mats all week trying to get 100 new ones
completed. i will post pictures of some of my favorites soon.

im also working on a new mandala series that i like a lot.

other than that, things are slow going.

here are a couple of pictures of sunny!
