• ~Muse of Dreams~

  As I sit here, nestled and warm, within my studio walls…I peer out onto several feet of freshly fallen snow.  And no matter how much angst it has caused…one has to recognize the beauty it inheritantly possesses. Why then, can I not look past what I see in the mirror today? Sunken cheeks, dark circles, pallid skin. I sigh… It is a resolute sigh, but not one of defeat. For I will rise beyond this moment… I will find that [...]

• ~Almost Home~

  Official snow count…40 inches. Farming is hard work in the best of weather, but in winter…the true love of the craft comes to light.  There is no one else in this world that has my undying adoration, than my beloved. He rises at 4 am…and works most days till hours not fit for man nor beast. The latest snow storm was so massive, that he had to walk the West 60 meadow to get a tractor. Why? Because the tractors [...]

• ~The Cycle Begins~

  Farming begins with the love of the land… The use of the land is determined by topography. Trees are cherished and where there is new construction, there will soon be grass and landscaping. The wildlife will thrive with the addition of hearty vegetation.  Birdhouses and other sanctuaries will be added, to aid the creatures, great and small. This is a small cycle of our farm, the actual metamorphosis…continues…as new life is constantly being added.  The birds are cared for constantly [...]

• ~A New Design Path~

  There are always rooms and spaces at The Painted Nest which need some sprucing up. Our beloved cottage is in a constant state of  “creation”. And I love it, I certainly do For me, color is my companion. So imagine my beloved’s shock, when this color palette was placed before him! Admittedly, this would be a new path for me. The Muse has creamy antique white accents throughout her cottage…but there is not a room which totally embraces the hue. [...]

• Tablescape And Trash To Treasure All In One

  Acres of hidden treasure… In boxes and bins… All holding hidden beauty… All latent~silent gems… Under piles amassed… A hoarder’s stash… Of would be~could be… And should have beens. The Muse gathered her coinage… And smartly thus… Bought a wondrous bounty… As to make pirates lust…. A silver teapot battered about… A bird whose wing was weak… Not secure or truly stout… Paper roses wrinkled and worn… Their edges thread tattered and torn… Potpourri whose scent had gone… Yes, the [...]

I simply adore my number one fan! To the best husband a Muse could ever [...]

A’s and B’s…… C’s and D’s…… Even Up To F’s and E’s… I grace the world… With all I’ve got… And trust you me… That’s not a lot! I proudly display… But with discretion… The mammary mounds… Of my true loves affection. I rue not a day… Nor hour… That I play… For even on occasion… (And with not much [...]

• Monday’s Post ~ Prose & Blue Monday

  When I was very young, (and still~even now) I would look at pictures ~ paintings…and make up stories! At times, they were not exactly as the artist had intended… Such is this work of a young, (oh, so young Muse), who fell under an enchanting spell of Tristan and Isolde. The Plummet A little maiden stood… Up high above the earth… The little m aid knew not… Her weight or girth… For suddenly… The sky gave way… And she fell [...]
