into the garden - summer bounty
This is the seventh in a series of paintings that illuminate the transformative beauty of the natural world. To visually express how total immersion into the deep greenness of gardens and wild spaces can create a profound sense of peace; restore wonder; and generate calm in an increasingly chaotic world.

THE ADVENTURE CONTINUES...
Another interior page from a children's picture book that I am writing and illustrating, titled "The Mysterious Monster March"
-----------------
Dawn breaks and excitement grows.
Everyone sets out after breakfast,
eager to continue on their adventure.

Later, they arrive at a vast lake.
The monsters jump in with wild howls of glee!
Except Meenu. He has never been in water before.
So, he carefully steps onto a leaf to float across.

Friday Greetings! :-) Since I love a good story, I created an image about the art of storytelling, titled "The Storyteller"
Imagine a world where the storyteller weaves a tale so grand, that all fall under its magic spell. Forest creatures, real and imagined, gather round with their children to hear the wondrous drama unfold.

DEI Dancers - BOIZEN
Meet Boizen, the Silly. Ready to crack a joke, tickle a toe or dance with a hula hoop. His desperate need for humor is deadly serious! Please do NOT cry in his presence - he will not know what to do and may try something that you will not appreciate to change your mood. Feel like telling a story? He will be your greatest audience, listening with rapt attention and never, not even once, interrupting. (I Believe In, Support and Champion DIVERSITY, EQUITY & INCLUSION!)

MIDNIGHT MONSTERS: A Startled Moontinkifer
Do not be afraid. Like many night creatures, they just wish to be left alone. These secretive beings often hide in the shadows, except when the moon is full and bright. The midnight moon is their time of wonder and if you happen to be in the right place at the right time, you just may witness some magical happenings. This particular midnight monster is called Moontinkifer and can be found high up in the Balkan mountain range on the border between Bulgaria and eastern Serbia . It was not easy getting to this destination, but I have found it worth the effort, expense and skinned knees. Legend says that if one is lucky enough to spot them during the day, they appear as drab, colorless creatures, almost invisible against the mountain landscape of rocks and boulders. They shine (literally) at night when they come out of their hiding places to dance. Moonlight causes a shimmering transformation from dull gray to a luminous rainbow colored glow! It is believed that the glimmer of incandescent color and magical movements is their way of attracting a mate. Otherwise, they appear to be quite shy, non-aggressive individuals, who unfortunately, startle easily.

The Mysterious Monster March: FIRST MEETING
Illustration from a children's picture book that I am working on.
--------------
His tummy growls again, becoming louder.
"Who are you?" one passing monster stops to ask.
"ME? I'm NEW!" squeaks the baby in surprise.
"Welcome MEENU!" it responds. "Come join us on
our grand adventure!”

This is MANX, in-all-caps! Self-assured as well as self-important. Bursting with confidence and always in a hurry, he rushes hither and thither with "things to do"! You'll never catch him relaxing or pausing for a moment to smell the roses - Heaven Forbid!! What, exactly, he does is a mystery, but never fear... it is always the most important thing at that moment and certainly more important that what YOU are doing.
