View post →New York is a great city. I was afraid of it when I saw it for the first time many, many years ago: it was soooo tall! I grew to love it over the years I’ve been living here. I have always maintained that New York City is it’s own country. What don’t we have? […]

View post →Another watercolor/drawing of Titania from Shakespeare’s A Midsummer’s Night Dream. Â Apparently the play has been on my mind quite a bit these last few weeks! Perhaps is because the summer days have been ending and the fall days beginning. I do love fall, but there is something about the warm, full summer days that I […]
