Spring Robin Button is off


As a member of the Paradise BNR, I decided to participate in the weekly challenge by including a button that features WINGS. Well, here it is: spring green robin.

The button features a young robin taking his first flight as he steps off the nest. He is done in a spring, pale green. The nest is a rich deep purple color. The background is grey. I was thinking of Keith Haring when I added the white lines around his head -- something about the energy. Well, it really fit.

If you want to buy it, you can click here to go to my etsy shop.

Originally, this was a painting I sold.

I Believe in Kindness. Also in Mischief. Also in Singing....

Brand new button on Etsy. Woo hoo! The phrase is by the poet Mary Oliver. It says I believe in kindness. Also in mischief. Also in singing, especially when singing is NOT necessarily prescribed.

New Avatar?

Yes, it was time. The old was too small to see and didn't match my banner. So, this is just a slice off the banner. That said, I'm thinking even the banner needs a bit of an update... whiten the dog???

What do you think? Improved avatar???

Oldies but Goodies




This was the button design I put on etsy. I was reminded of it today because I heard the phrase, "We are all manifestations of the Universal Consciousness. EVERYTHING is a manifestation of the Universal Consciousness."

This is the button that embodies that idea.

It's called You are loved more than you know.

I made it as part of a series I called the Patron Saints. The idea was that we needed patron saints for today's world. People feel so unloved, alienated, not part of the world, not part of the universe. We need someone to remind us that we are all interconnected and we are all deeply loved.

To this day, it might be my favorite????

I rather love this one, more than most




I was so inspired by the phrase A Ship is Safe in the Harbor, But that's not what Ships are Built For. I realize I got the phrase a little off. Maybe I should correct that? Opinions? Thoughts? Anyway, here's what it looks like pressed.
