Feeling more at home here

Today I have orders to fill and a painting to start for Porsche race car driver Randy Pobst. I've never done this sort of thing, but I'll be sure to share the results with you when it's done. Good or bad.
I've decided to post a painting today that I did a few months ago.
Yep, that's it.
I was inspired by Leslie in Virginia. I read a story on her blog (Flowers of Life) yesterday about fireflies, which brought back good memories of summers when I was a kid.
We call them lightning bugs here in the South.
Gotta get crackin'! The day is awasteing!

Day Three

Try not to be distracted by my crooked picture. It exemplifies my state of mind while building my blog.
Building a blog is a bit like the day after a move. The boxes are hither and yon and you aren't quite sure in which room to start.
This morning I began exploring your blogs. I found many examples of what a beautifully squared away "house" looks like.
I especially enjoyed Shelagh Duffett's blog Alice in Paris Loves Art and Tea. There is a peacefulness there coupled with a lot of good information and wonderful art.
I'm posting a painting today, that I did a few years ago, called Under the Full Egg Moon. Shelagh's love of vivid blue and starry skies was the inspiration for this post.
I have a lot to learn: creating links, focused and straight photographs, Fliker, Flopper,Twirler, Twister, Zaggle, Shapeshifter, Whewww! Thanks for your help.
Have a beautifully creative day,
Ronnie

Day Two. I'll need a nap today!

Well, here I am!
No, not in this picture. That was a happier time when the computer was far away and left home to fend for itself.
It's DAY TWO of my adventure into blog world and I survived! I was up until 4 AM, which I'm finding out is normal hours for many bloggers, especially those with little kids. The Night is the art bloggers friend!!!
I noticed NoodleandLou.etsy.com working after midnight. How do you people do this!?
Flor Larios Art!
Now YOU are the best thing since sliced bread. My first official Follower! I am flabbergasted by your ability to find me and awestruck by your beautiful art. You are the success story we all strive for.
Well, it's back to the salt mines of wingnut- self taught-blog building. You other blogger artistes are beatin' me with a stick and I hate looking like a slacker! Perhaps I'll post some more of my art today or share some lovely Christmas ideas if I can figure it out.
Have a happy day,
Ronnie
