A weekly blog of what's going on in the studio; interests, tastes, and general hullabaloo.

Two black and white pumpkin signs yard decor by outside steps.

Plywood pumpkin signs hanging in the yard

New Yard Signs?!? Maybe it's art? Who cares, it looks cool!!

October 26, 2026

Some new hand painted pumpkin signs… or maybe just decorations, for the front yard.
Latex paint on wood, approx 24” diameter each.

I think I’m going to make more; different sizes and colors… although it’s a pity that Halloween is only five days away now. I need more time to make it! Oh well, maybe next year the yard will look more celebratory.

Framed print of two loon birds nesting by a lake on a foggy morning

Original framed print by Marian Anderson - “Voice of the Lakes - Loons”

Thrift Store Painting Dropped off at Hidden Treasures Thrift Store - 09/06/2025

September 10, 2025

In the spring of 2025 a woman in Minneapolis, MN gave me a framed print as a donation for my rubber duck series. The print, by the artist Marian Anderson, is titled “Voice of the Lakes - Loons,” and it depicts two Loon birds nesting near a body of water on a foggy morning. I painted a vampire-themed rubber duck on the print (have you ever heard the call of a Loon? It’s scary…) and returned this ‘new’ artwork to Hidden Treasures Thrift Store on 09/06/2025, around 6:50 pm.

A successful collaboration!
Thank you Marian for your contribution to the work!
