A crisp morning walk while visiting a dear writer friend in Portland Oregon.

The colors were overwhelming. I spilled my coffee several times. But not on the cat, it moved quickly.

Crafty cat.

Gladiolas are my favorite flower. I painted flowers for two years, some years back. It started with the seduction of these beautiful flowers.

Inspiration. The early morning gauzy coffee walk with cats and flowers. So easy… so all around us.
