Coming and goings

   
     Greetings,
     It's been a busy several months......
      I've taken a few small excursions,
     had my 65th. birthday with family and friends,
     finished up projects and started new ones,
     worked allot in our garden, and enjoyed a glorious spring,
     Let me share with you............


     I traveled up the coast on my way to San Francisco
      to visit a dear friend in Berkeley......... route one

   
         Living in a very small seaside village going to
         the big city is truly a exciting adventure........


     Had lunch here, so peaceful after all the traffic......


     Met up with friends on the way, and before I knew
     it was time to come home ..............


     Back down the coast on a new, almost completed
     bridge and huge tunnel clinging at the edge of the
     Pacific ocean, such a feat ........


        Almost home now........




     Back at home, remember this frog ? he's been fired
     and found a spot in my garden in a small cement pond .......


     I'm kinda delighted with him !


     The leaf bowls fired and found homes for as well ......


     They look so luminous with a little water .....


     This one I especially like and blends so beautifully
     with my smaller paintings .......


     I was very happy to finish up this larger painting ......


     And quite satisfied with the way it turned out,
     What do you think ?
     I'm off to a artist retreat in Santa Barbara next
     week and will share all the excitement
     next time, until then, BE GLAD....
     Wishing you happy days,      victoria
