While I was without a computer I had time to do a little more painting and finished a new orb for Halloween and Vine. Below is the Monkey-Cat, that caught the rat, that snagged the spider that.....well, you get the idea! There are four figures about the orb, a Ms. Moon on top to illuminate the night sky, a Sir Jack Spinner on the bottom and lots of lumina pumpkins around the bottom border.

Smile for the camera Ms Moon....

and Batty Boy is out trick or treating with the Count and one of the Wicked sisters.

Hope you like what you see!!! Wow, only a week away before we set up for Halloween and Vine! Time does fly!

Have a great weekend!!

Halloween and Vine

I'm baaackkkkkkk!!!! Goodness, maybe the "computer goddess" was trying to tell me something when the computer failed two weeks ago. Regardless, I'm back online, the new computer is to arrive in a few weeks and I am thanking my lucky stars that all was not lost.

In my absence from blogging and emailing I was able to get quite a bit of work done and I'm feeling so much better about what I have finished for Halloween and Vine. Just 10 days from now I hope to meet many of you in person for the first time at this wonderful Halloween event.



I'm thrilled to be included with such talent!!! If you are free on the 26th and need a trip to Petaluma, come give us a look!!!

Have a great day and we will hopefully share something new tomorrow!!

Computer Crash

Where have I been? Well on Wednesday morning I tried turning the computer on and received a fatal error...hard drive failed!!! I still don't know the outcome of what I lost and what if anything can be saved. So, if you don't hear from me it is because I'm in limbo about the computer.

I am on the deck of some friends that kindly lent me their little notebook to type a quick note. I have no email, no blogging capabilities and no addresses so hang in there with me...and so it goes!
