Little Spots of Beauty

Today I am sharing pictures with you that are apparently unrelated and don’t have much to do with my art business.

This is just a peek into a few things in my life that are appealing to me, little spots of beauty that I automatically seek out wherever I am, including at the kitchen sink.

Do you do that too?

This bluebird discovered the little grapes in our yard, which the deer and the bears left alone. Weird. The bluebird doesn’t look very blue until. . .
. . . he flies away!
My friend who is waiting for lungs buys flowers when she goes to the grocery store. These just grabbed me, and remind me of a couple of pairs of socks that I knit for her several years ago. (Her daughter may have kiped a pair from her. . .)
I love the beach.
This building at Montana de Oro in San Luis Obispo County reminds me of the old farmhouses at Point Reyes National Park/Seashore. It would be fun to draw or paint, but my market isn’t interested in this sort of subject. Maybe if I called it a “sea cabin”. . .?
This is my favorite house in Cayucos. I know nothing about it other than it gets more appealing every year since I first noticed it in the early 2000s.

  1. I am so grateful for your writing, drawing, and painting. Thank you.

    • Thank you, Sally. I am grateful that you read, appreciate, and comment.

  2. I love these photos as they remind me of a special time with you! So why not try a couple of these seascapes–You may be surprised at your market of buyers. I, for one, would buy a Montana de Oro. It has taken on significant healing memories. Just saying!

    • Hmmm, Coastal Girl, I will take this under advisement. Thanks!

      • Oh my word! My deepest apologies for all of the typos in my previous comment. The editor-of-past shudders as the editor of present cringes!

        • Coastal Girl, I will correct your typos. I was trying to be respectful by not pointing them out. 😎

  3. What a wonderful start to my wonderfully wet morning you have given me for the whole day, Jana!

    • Happy to oblige, Louise! Isn’t it beautiful out today??
