Tag Happy!

My watercolor rendering of a copy of Barbara Roth's drawing of Monet's home at Giverny. I took a class from her at Art Unraveled in August, 2008. This is what I did in class.
My pal Julee tagged me so now I have to come up with 6 secrets about myself. Do I have any secrets? If I did, I certainly wouldn't be telling, now would I? Oh. Well, yes, that is the object of this exercise.




  1. Inside my head somewhere, I am 5"8" and 135 pounds. I wear skinny jeans and cashmere sweaters with high heeled boots and handknit wool socks every day, except for when I'm skiing. I live in the mountains and don't have to work. We have lots of dogs, most of them ridiculously large or ridiculously small.

  2. In my garages, you can find: a green 2006 MINI Cooper S Sidewalk Convertible, a yellow Mercedes SLK Convertible, a red Jeep Wrangler, a green 1998 Jeep Grand Cherokee Ltd., a midnite blue 2007 Jeep Commander, and a yellow Lambo Gaillardo. It's a Lambo. Who cares what year it is? These are just my personal cars. The Sports Fan has his own.

  3. My house is of post and beam log construction with field stone. It has lots of windows and many rooms, often with just one purpose such as a sewing room, an art room where I paint watercolors, a print room where I do bookbinding and different types of art printing, and an exercise room.

  4. I have been blonde since birth.

  5. I am happiest when I am making something or when I'm just spending time with the Sports Fan and our dogs.

  6. Two Golden Retreivers follow me around all day.


I decided not to name anyone to do the 7 secrets post because people are still mad at me for making them do the last one. Same goes for this. I'll do the posts but not make my friends do it, okay?

I can't decide what I want more -- to learn to watercolor paint, or to sew. This is gorgeous and certainly propels me to the watercolor side!

Listen, woman, I AM 5'-8" (actually, 5'9"), 150 pounds, and along with that I have huge hands, no hips, and no chest ... I'd say love what ya got, except I'm thinking I'd trade with ya for a week if we could set it up. Think about it -- the week after Christmas good for you?

I have my wee studio cat, Zoe, used to have a yellow lab who got out of the yard and lost forever ... I'd have 2 labs and another cat if my Double BB would go for it. So not only will I enjoy your size and shape that week after Christmas, but be lovin' on your pooches!!! (hee hee)

I love your post. What a sensible idea doing it yourself but not passing it on. That's what I find most difficult choosing someone to carry on with it.
BTW, no need to post a blog address, just click on the blue word in the comment and it will take you straight to that person's blog. I use this all the time and find it so useful. Mags
