Well its not the greatest but I am so tiresome of the pines trees, yet I had to finish this painting since its been since Xmas when I started.
I may not be brilliant but I still have the passion to continue my calling.

My husband is also a painter, yet not like my thoughts and imagines but a commercial and industrial painter, for over 35 years I have utialize his profession for personal use updating our home and unique walls, colors like greens which was a master for me to find. :)

Meanwhile he works everyday and enjoys working for a great company called Hendricksen paint Inc.

  Mike Hendricksen has become more then a job position, but a great extention to our family and theirs.

Colors Of J Harris

How often you lay and look up and can paint it so vividly

When I view Johnathan's work I find so much of my world and desire to create such color and imagine to paint more.
Nature comes to us all, with different ways and view, JH your work makes me find poetry..

I love the details JH creates

And the colors

Need I say more

Mother's Day Moment

As we do grow older we do get wiser. How often I recall my Mom relaying that old saying:

When Mothers where created a new body formed within them, I didnt know the true depth until I became a mom.  How I now find so many wonderful memories of my mom and I.
Those Moments where she assured her love by a touch of a hand or a kiss.  Giving us knowledge we then thought little yet made such a difference when we grew older.
 I love you mom!
                                     

                      Happy Mothers Day to you Moms!

I have found face book as a great site, it connects us with each other who we didn't realized we had, like reading others stories and their part of the world.
I took a very good liking to what Linnie Applequist had to say about What makes us the happiest? reading the feed back from FB friends made life's drama easier in ways I didn't think of before.
Yet we find in so many ways enduring everyday life.  Reading about old places Redondo Beach I last remember it. I wish I could be their every time old friends of mine from younger or school days got together. I just wish I could be closer to attend.  Yet I have a wonderful life here and each day brings me even more so to my Happiest.


FaceBook is a great social network which back in the 70's we would of never guess we could experience.  I must be old but I feel wonderful.  Please come find us on Face Book you well enjoy and I would love to share your world with mine.

My Mama......

Trying to find a song about my Mom I can't just pick one, Their are so many songs I use to hear her sing and dance around the house. Back in the late 60-70's you can Imagine all the songs that came across us in those years. Seems like music was a fashion in all ways.

Mom had a white Corviar car and 'boy' did we drive it every where. There was a gas station on PCH, how my mom would Say 50 cents worth! Wow Huh.
I enjoyed listing to the radio stations playing Brenda Lee which was one of her favorites.

Mom always had a sass about herself. I truly loved how she carried herself. She even shown me and my sister Vicky how to do the Locomotion. That was a mom and a girlfriend back then. How we always played songs on our 45's record player..Mom was a Pretty Woman I loved her so.

She was Not a PTA Mom.
Mom didn't take to well when the teachers treated her kids unfair, regardless she always stood behind us.  Heck she taught me how to defend my kids when they too where young. And Oh did I..

Through the years she shared many things and memories in her life. The years being young, a Mom to us all.  How often I called on her for the many questions and emotions I experience. How she was always there.

I use to hear mom sing many songs, It will take much more time then now to share.

I love you Mama, I well never stop missing you and your present....you will always be Unforgettable.

A girlfriend gave me a engraved poem when my mom passed:

If I had just one wish,
It would be for a stairway,
That Reached up to Heaven,
So I could bring you Home..
