How can the news talk about anything else? I'm listening to NPR reporting on love songs, and I'm panicked wondering what has happened today.

Here is a detail from a painting I'm working on that includes passion flower. Also- passion flower is insane. I can't believe they exist in real life. They seem like something Willy Wonka or Dr. Suess invented.

I woke up to a fresh snowfall, and the beautiful lacy snow-covered branches that will only last for the morning.

This halfway point through the winter feels special. I love it. I'm reminded to be thankful for all that I have.
