© Francois Pages For a few Spring months in 1954, a melancholy Picasso found himself enraptured by 19-year-old Sylvette David. Of all the muses who bookmarked his life — and there were many — she's fallen to the wayside of history as one of the most enigmatic and misunderstood. For years, critics

Over the Sea 27 watercolor on paper 24x18 Today is important, we will know what kind of country we really are. Hillary Clinton is nowhere in sight to justify a return to a meaner and certainly less just America. I`m not even nervous this time. Reality never quite reassembles after being shattered. I know now much better what my responsibilities are and what I can do, either way. I also turned 65 around 2:30 am last night. So many of my birthdays have been steeped in idealism and hope and also in crushing disappointment. Depending on the election. I feel prepared as best as I can be. This morning I was reminded that gratitude is where happiness can be found. I know this but it takes a willful concentration. Not like a child`s fast prayer at bedtime. If I unravel the threads and look closely, I can see my inherent advantage and also mountains of pain and trouble that never darkened my way. And the good stuff benefits by counting. If I can stay with it, the word becomes the feeling which becomes the realization of extraordinary grace. The bus missed me, my parents loved me, I`ve never been hungry, I lived when my peers died of AIDS, I can paint! ....Lucky from the get go! Riverlight oil on canvas 40x30 This is what has darkened my way! This is a section of the Tualatin River that I`ve painted many times, on site and in my studio. On an afternoon visit in late summer, the water was almost inky, the shadows of the cliff deep and yet the luxurious grasses and bushes on the far shore were ablaze; Yet I can`t seem to get anything convincing. Beware the painting that is inspired and promising in the beginning! I was, maybe still am, intent on getting this right but I`m not sure of what to do next. If I use my hard earned maturity, I`ll set it aside and do something else. I`ll ignore its calls for rescue. Thank you to those who visited my open studio last month! My work was competing with spectacular, dazzling sunlight yet you ventured down into my basement. I appreciate it. Lyndon and Carter Though I think he could eviscerate him with a swipe, Lyndon continues to mentor our new family member with patience. Fall River watercolor 10x8 This was painted exactly two years ago. Another stretch of the Tualatin River, purchased by an artist who lives very close to that spot. That was a nice validation.

No, David! Directed Drawing: Writing and drawing activity for the beginning of the school year using the David books by David Shannon
The sun is shining and my children are back at nursery and school. It’s time to think about St David’s Day which has sparked lots of creativity in our house. Here’s a round up of 10 St David’s Day crafts, including some of ours. 10 St David’s Day crafts How about starting the day with a St David’s Day breakfast, I love this one which includes Welsh dragony bacon and egg. You can’t celebrate St David’s Day without a batch of Welsh cakes too. They are simple to make and taste divine, especially when warm. It’s lovely to bring some colour into the house. As well as colourful daffodils, did you know that leeks are a well known Welsh symbol? I found this fun craft for kitchen paper leeks which I know my children would love to make and then use in their play kitchen. How about making some Welsh ladies bunting to decorate the house? I found two versions, one with cheery faces and googly eyes and more Welsh ladies bunting based on sweet Russian nesting dolls, both would brighten up a room. I also like this fun St David’s Day bunting printable. I haven’t forgotten the children and […]
