🎶
In honor of his upcoming 100th birthday on the 13th of December, I post this delightful remembrance to a beloved performer.

My mother has memories of school with him one year behind her in Danville Illinois.

Happy Birthday Mr. Van Dyke.

Full moon rising over the Stonington Peninsula from Northwest Lake, Michigan. You can see my deck rail, backyard, some shore ice, some lake water with ice in it and then the full moon rising above it all.

When the full moon light hits your eyes, that's...

It’s been wet and grey for a while - but happy to have found a bit of colour.

Large-flowered bellwort (Colchicaceae: Uvularia grandiflora) is native to eastern and central North America. It can be found in broken shade of damp woodlands. The nodding flowers attract a variety of bees, and the seeds are distributed by ants. Zaleski State Forest near Athens Ohio, 02 May 2014.

On the edge by a dirt road stands a single bare tree. To its right is a body of water. In the background are mountains.

An acrylic painting of a rabbit sitting in a forest blanketed in snow. There is a creek running through the middle, it’s edges covered in ice. You can see more trees in the valley at a distance. The moon shines full and reflects on the water.

“I wonder if the snow loves the trees and fields, that it kisses them so gently. And then it covers them up snug, you know, with a white quilt.”
~Lewis Carroll

Yes! All is snuggled under Snow’s white quilt

Illustration in turquoise and brown of a snow filled city in winter. The spectral form of a woman sails through the sky sprinkling ice as she goes.

Picked up ‘The Christmas Book’ a graphic celebration edited by David Larkin, at the weekend. Here’s an illustration by Edmund Dulac.

‘Many a winter’s night she flies through the streets and peeps in at the windows, and then the ice freezes on the panes into wonderful patterns like flowers.’
