It's a walk, now it's some art

First it's my feet



one


after


another


then it's a money plant in bloom



when you look closer it's the veins running through



then it's two butterflies making new life in an herb garden



look again and it's the butterfly's eye



then it's something taking over



it's a thorn


and then many thorns


it's an umbrella made of green



it's seed to feed the animals


no, it's sunflowers growing accidental in a bunch



could it be an unfinished project


or a project on it's way



certainly it's a project complete


boo hiss, it's a weed


now it's a sea of dandelions


it's something growing where it's not supposed to



now it's something that's allowed



it's trying to heal


it's healthy


it's baby life uncurling



it's coming to the end of the cycle


but it hasn't even started yet


it's laying around


now it's crawling along



later it's drifting away




Suddenly it's drying out



now hanging out



But so rock-in


and swing-in


After all, it's breaking down



and burning up


but still, it's always ALIVE and AWAKENING and BECOMING


But mostly, it's inviting you

Now, it's gonna be some art. Here's some pages from an art journal I recently started. Before I was more into making art that could be displayed. I didn't get the whole keep it hidden away in an art journal thing. But I've become infected, cough, cough.................

Make your day great!

Here's what I've been seeing lately

Sleeping cats

How funny is Magick sleeping like this? That's his normal sleeping position.




Pirate sleeps funny too. He's also known as Sleepy McGee because he used to sleep so much.




Wentz loves the back of the couch lately.



Pop-Tart is still into the corner.



Twix enjoying the cat tree they got for Christmas.


Cleopatra is blurry, but still cute.


Here's 7 of them enjoying the cat tree. (from top, Wentz, Pirate, Cleo, Twix, Pop-Tart, Magick, Mooka)


I woke poor Mooka up.


Rowan sleeping in a box that we can't get rid of because so many of them love to sleep in it. These cats are totally spoiled. :)



Rowan's birthday was April 1st. Here's his balloon. :)



That morning I was feeding the crew and happened to look out the kitchen window and BAM, saw this low flying hot air balloon. Every once in a while we see them fly over our area. It's pretty cool to see them so low.



Evidence of Spring!

One guess why I bought this herb last year.



Because it's called Melissa aka Lemon Balm. I couldn't resist a plant that has the same name as magickal me.



YES! The chamomile is coming up nicely.



The mint is doing it's spring stretch.




Mmmmm, chocolate mint. It's like having Andes candies growing in the garden.



Our first flower!



The lilies are taking over. Can't wait till they bloom.


I have no idea what this stuff is. I got it from my friend's daughter. The only thing I do know is that it grows anywhere and everywhere with absolutely no help. That's great for me because my thumb ain't too green.


Here it is growing in two pots. It even grew out the bottom!





Here's some cute lil envelopes I made for a project I'm working on.



Have a love filled day!
