I surmise that if abandoning your blog posting activities were illegal the punishment would be 30 days of continuous Burl Ives music interrupted every so often with Janet Napolitano singing “Homegrown Fantasy”. Thankfully, it is not illegal but it is rather rude, and I apologize to my loyal visitors. However, there are many reasons, often called excuses, for my inability to paint and post. Namely, I fell victim to life; my personal problems, those of the world (which are way more than mine) and the constant whining of news reporters wanting me to think one way or the other. Each news reporter has mandatory “News Flash” need for my eye balls. Their corrupt reporting and poor journalism ethics just simply over whelmed me. I could no longer see the beautiful in life, which is such a necessity for my art work.

But a few prayers and a new paint brush or two have helped me work out my victimization of immoral media overload and see much clearer that the world needs my artwork and this blog. That is, a blog that is a fun place to login to where the lovely still exists.

And after this long and difficult winter, what could be lovelier than spring flowers. We have a beautiful one to post today. Please check out the “Works From Our Artists” section for the new spring flower painted by Sandra Banducci. It is purple, passionate and priceless.
Enjoy lovely today.
