Hi All. In case any of you wondered if I had dropped off the edge of the world I wanted to say I'm fine. Some time back I got fed up with Blogger and wandered away and just didn't come back. I haven't done much painting lately and I felt that my blog was becoming a photo documentary of the minutiae of my life so I quit. But I am fine. I still work at the arboretum and I still work with the seniors at the nursing home, among other things. I may be back from time to time if I have anything worthwhile to say.
That said, here is a watercolor pencil painting of my Caribbean Christmas Tree. I have cats and a traditional Christmas tree with all its little hanging and dangling toys is just too tempting for them so I decorate my artificial tree in my living room. The decorations are up high enough that they don't mess with it. I use ribbon streamers, handmade ornaments that have been given to me, Mardi Gras beads that came from Las Vegas, and white lights to adorn this tiny tree and it suits me just fine.
I'm wishing all of you a Happy Holiday Season and a very good New Year!

Your pictures are never boring and you have been missed. Love the , you do these so well and I understand the Cat thing since we have one that gets into everything too. :) I started up another blog with a better name. I couldn't stay away it seems. Hope you have a wonderful 2013 and we see more of you here.
I have always enjoyed all you share Kate. It is good to hear that all is well and good in your world. Like I think about my children...no news is good news in a sense. ;) I hope you have a marvelous holiday. Cheers and Namaste.
Kate! You were missed!! See??!! I personally love the minutia of your life. :) I love when you share your art or show pictures and talk about your day at the arboretum and all the things you learn there...your work with the senior...
Whatever and whenever you decide to share i'll be sure to pop on over!

I've figured you were OK but was about to email you just to check in. Lovely to see you, lovely to see your painting and hope you are enjoying life and your work. I miss you...and the minutia...and the details....but understand totally. Enjoy the season.
I was wondering why you weren't coming up on my blog anymore, but then others aren't either. I thought it was a blogger glitch.
I like hearing about your days and seeing the photos!
I hope you come back when you feel the time is right.
