Paper mâché “Robin” with colorful sneakers and a red ball. Lovely photo taken by someone at the gallery. ( I don’t think I’ve posted this before, but sorry if it’s a repeat.)

Watercolor Study of a day lily on Canson cold press paper for a painting to be done later on Arches. (Many mistakes but I’m learning…)

  1. Wow Brenda

    I had NO IDEA what you were up against. It’s encouraging to know you freed yourself but not until after a massive heart attack … so glad things are going better now!! Congrats on making it thru all these huge changes. My oh my. Take care!

  4. Hi – when I got your email about June art, I came to the blog and browsed here. It’s a single Meerkat with a lot of brown and lots of lines, a happy face and deep dark eyes. I also visited the other site you mentioned in the upper right corner of the blog page and looked at your art there. I remembered some of the older ones… You know, since the pandemic began and I got stuck in my apartment for more than 2 years because I have health issues, I started taking a ton of online art classes and art really got me through a tough time. In those first 2 years, I got sick with COVID, I ended an 11 year toxic partnership (4 months before the shit hit the fan, actually), I had to put my dog to sleep and my mother died of neglect in a nursing home. So, I turned to art and it literally saved my life because it helped me lift the worst of the depression… I am doing much better now, but am working with a therapist on some stuff that I realize I cannot navigate on my own. Among other things is the aftermath of my 11 years living in limbo. My ex is what’s called a covert narcissist and he pretty much sucked the life out of me (I had a massive heart attack and a quadruple bypass in 2018, which I attribute to the relationship). At one point, prior to my heart attack, he was pressuring me to get life insurance… I felt like I was in an old Alfred Hitchcock movie where I wake up some night with a pillow over my face… So, that’s all very cheery, isn’t it? But really, life is good these days, financially and friendship and family and roof over my head wise… Are you still in Vermont? I am still in Willimantic. It’s going on 17 years already. … I am glad to see you creating new art. I do drop in on your blog from time to time to see what you’ve been doing… Take care. — Brenda
