    Year in Review: 2020

    January 1, 2021 /

    What a year.  I’m not sure if anyone had the year they thought they would when 2020 started.  I know I definitely didn’t.  So many events I was looking forward to were cancelled and many that continued on were mostly spent unseen during the initial shutdown because of COVID-19 and…

    A Trip to Seneca Falls (Updated)

    December 4, 2020 /

    My plans for the evening got derailed, so I’m switching gears for today’s blog post.  I’m re-sharing my adventure finding the Ludovico Sculpture Trail a couple years ago and then I’ve added the painting that was inspired by the trip at the end.  Enjoy! This weekend I went for a…

    The closing of a year gives us the opportunity to remember and reflect on the last 365 days. What seemed like a trying and challenging year, was filled with so many amazing opportunities and areas of growth.  Enjoy this video that I put together reviewing this past year! New Art…

    Waterfall Wednesday: Unnamed Falls

    July 3, 2019 /

    This week we go to an unnamed waterfall in Buttermilk Falls State Park that almost wasn’t part of my 50 New York Waterfalls project.  I was conflicted about including an unnamed waterfall in the project when all the other waterfalls were main features with their own names.  Ultimately decided this…

    Waterfall Wednesday: Upper Triphammer Falls

    June 12, 2019 /

    I haven’t quite pinned down why this waterfall is one of my favorites.  Maybe it’s because it falls at angular steps.  Maybe it’s because it’s in such an urban setting.  Maybe it’s because it satisfies some need to find out where things start.  Maybe it’s the beautiful lake and waterlilies…
