Artnotes: A handful of Daffodils
It is so bright out I was forced to paint indoors this
morning. I love the look of the sun
bursting into the dark interior. Harika
and I are holding down the fort here, while Blair is in the USA. He comes back on Monday (arriving
Tuesday). One never realizes how much
another person does until you must do it all yourself. Harika is zero help.
When I went to the USA, neighbors took Blair out for lunch,
checked in to see was ok, et cetera. Me?
Just call me “chopped liver”. Must be
a just for boys thing. It’s ok, I actually have a lot to keep me busy and my Modena chums checked on me.
I finished my writing.
I have moved the barbecue with the hornet’s nest inside to a location on
the other side of the house, and put rocks over the hive entrance. It’s a bit unnerving to step into the side
yard, where those left outside are looking for home. I feel very brave and hope not to have nightmares.
H and I spent a few days in Rimini. I painted a four paintings, and we went to the
beach a lot. It was so surprising I was
the only tourist. Nine miles of beach,
and not another person or dog in sight. I went to the city one day, but I loved the
giant expanse of silky sand beach too much to make the trek into town. I blogged from there on www.artnotesitaly.wordpress.com.
Our new trees all have leaves and flowers. In fact, when I arrived the yard made me think
of a chia pet – all green and fuzzy. It
seemed smaller, like when you put a carpet into a room. I
waded through the tall grass and picked a handful of daffodils.
