"This Smokin' Hot..."

...feisty, flame headed, impulsive

"sidekick.girlfriend.galpal"

of my Muse

definitely has had a strong influence on her

fiery painting palette...

so much so that I just recently found

"Daniel Smith Artist Supplies"

on the speed dial of

her cell!

(I personally think she is addicted

those luscious, yummy quinacridone colors...)

I guess if you love what you do...

life is good!

“In our life there is a single color,

as on an artist's palette,

which provides the meaning of life and art.

It is the color of love.”
~Marc Chagall

"And Then Came Ms. Dora..."

...who is just a wee bit of a desert diva...

and who is

also another of my Muse's quirky gal pals.

Dora specifically insisted on meeting you all today...

getting all dolled up

for her special Cactus Monday debut!

She is certainly a real "stickler" making a proper

first impression...;)

“One should never make one's debut in a scandal.

One should reserve that

to give interest to one's old age.”
~Oscar Wilde

"Meet Ms. Flora..."

...another of my Muse's girlfriends.

It is rumored,

in certain levels of Muse society,

that

Flora is not very inspirationally active these days

because

she really burned herself out as a

"Flower Child"

during the late 60's in San Francisco. :)

Hmmm? Could this be true???

Peace out! :)

overcomes the love of power, the world will know peace.”

"Meet the Girlfriends..."

....another bit of a series featuring

friends of my Muse...

introducing, first, Ms. Fiona...who tends to be

just a wee bit of a flake!

:)

All of the ladies

are drawn lead free...ink straight in...

right from the get-go...:)

and will be featured a bit here and there

this next week to celebrate

the arrival in Arizona of a good friend of mine

next Thursday!

(JGL...OOOOh MY! I can hardy wait!)

"A true friend

is someone who thinks that you are a good egg

even though (s)he

knows that you are slightly cracked.”
