A little sketch that I did of London in the fog in 1965.

A little sketch that I did of London in the fog in 1965.

I made this sketch of myself sometime in the late 1960s to early 1970s.

To remove some clutter I scanned my old artwork and threw out the tattered old sketches. I made this drawing in the mid 1960’s when I was in my 20’s.

I often use on1 software to add enhancements to my photographs. I submitted an edit of an image they provided to the on1 Photo Remix Challenge. I recently read a lovely book, Remarkably Bright Creatures by Shelby van Pelt. That book inspired me to add an AI octopus to my edit. This was fun to create.


I took some time off from posting to start going through old papers. I played around with the background in this photograph. Can you spot the tiny spider? I created it with AI.

There is a lovely shop called Decoys Decoys Decoys on 4039 Main St., Chincoteague Island, VA 23336. The carvings by hundreds of different artists are exceptionally good. I was tempted to buy one but they are expensive and I have no room in our little apartment. The sales person kindly let me take some pictures.





There are a few more days to see the other photographer’s professional quality work. I have two on exhibit.

I love the little Chincoteague Island Library on Main Street. There was an display about children’s book Misty of Chincoteague (novel) – Wikipedia. And a sculpture of Misty nearby. See The Misty of Chincoteague Foundation | Misty the Pony.
I fell in love with the huge very well done new mural by Michael Rosato. Later during our stay we attended a lovely history tour by Cindy Faith. Cindy invited the artist. She also started the fund for it (CHINCOTEAGUE: Funding sought for three-story downtown mural – Eastern Shore Post). Besides forays to see the local wildlife I enjoy learning the local history and meeting some of the local people.
