Happy New Year

So begins Chinese New Year! 

The year of the rabbit.

 When I lived in Honolulu I remember hearing the firecrackers going off all night to scare away the bad spirits. I hope there are no bad spirits in your new year!

Winter

I love to se the Nandina loaded with red berries just in time for winter.

Thankful for the color YELLOW !

 

The Most Colorful Holiday

Mexico has given us a lively, colorful holiday to celebrate the dead. 

Every November Tulsa has been celebrating this day with music, dance, blessings & altars with marigolds & sugar skulls, for 20 + years.

I go to see the altars that honor loved ones; they are imaginative & the colors make me happy!

Did you see this?

 Today is National Color the World Orange Day! Artist Kalup Linzy has done a great job of giving us an orange world.

 I love collage, and Kalup has combined collage with acrylic paint to picture a world that dreams are made of.
