Circus Monkeys
My thought as I was doing this painting was one of if the world was a big monkey circus. One of fun and imagination.

Looking Back
It's is funny how time goes by , us as artists are always changing . Looking back at when I first started drawing was as a little girl I never remember not drawing .My youngest daughter is following in my footsteps ! I'm very proud of that ! I'm grateful to see this ! She is drawing these pretty little girls with so much design in them . She reminded me of when I first drew Garfield and did bubble letters for my friends book covers . Art is so much a part of my spirit and soul ! Art is the one thing that no matter how much time goes by I can't live without it !

What Do You as an Artist Think About Political Art ?
I was wondering what people think about political art ? I'm not really happy about this as , some political art can be perceived as brainwashing . This kind of art was used in the past for personal political statements to be made . This is a very effective and sometimes damaging . This has been on my mind a lot lately . In that I see that history is repeating itself ,on a level that is now reaching our children in school !

Loving the Artistic Abilities of Others !
It is really great to see old friends that have such great artistic ability ! We are all such different creators of how we paint and draw ! When someone shares their gifts with you it is very special to me . I really get what is inside of that person and how they are feeling . The great old masters were some of the most expressive and passionate artists I have ever seen ! When I go to a museum or see art in the streets, I'm very drawn to the colors and images I see . We went to the Art Fair in Bellvue Washington last year and I was blown away by some of the artists . From woodworks to canvas it inspired me and made me so grateful to be able to be an artist!
