Finally, Spring!

where I live, we've had a long, cold winter. This coming week we will finally have balmier temperatures and rain to wash all the winter away...I took some photos of tulips today, thought I'd share one with you.

recently, there was an ice sculpture exhibit in Toronto, where I live this piece was so whimsical, it caught my eye! enjoy...

Sunflowers are my favorite - I recently painted this image in acrylic on canvas, thought I'd share it here.

almost one year later...

here I am again...I thought I'd reactivate this page;
there is always so much to do, places to go, people to see, projects to manage, songs to sing, pictures to paint, photos to take, books to read, music to hear...chocolate to savor...wine to sip...paths to walk...mountains to climb (not me, maybe you?)...grandbabies to kiss and hug...magazines to skim...oceans to sail, lakes and rivers to kayak...a partner to share with...a partner to search for...dreams to come true...

it's a new day

hello gentle reader(s)
A couple of years ago I thought I'd start a blog - I did but then I quickly lost interest.
More recently, I thought I'd try it again.
So, with this initial entry on Tuesday, August 21, 2007, I begin.
As the name of this blog explains, that's who I am; mother of two wonderful, productive, responsible adults, and recently the grandmother of one! That is a great experience (even though I am really only 18!). I am a bilingual (English/French) Canadian and would welcome hearing from anyone in the world, that is the beauty of this medium. I work full time and in my spare time I am a visual artist (painting and photography).
I also love to travel, sail, swim, hike and read - great films, theatre and ballet also are favorites.
