I’m talking to my dogs….or to the plants….I hear they like that….

 this adoarable little girl is my Siren Girlie…..JRT (Jack Russell terrorizers)

or in Siren’s case…

Just Really Terrific

And this is my Boy…Turbo….and he is turbo powered!

they are awesome pups…they help me to loosen the soil in my garden (Jacks are notoroius for digging) and they keep birds away with Barking…they are very helpful.

What a great weekend!!  Saturday morning June 6th, we took our pups to an event hosted by Russell Rescue (JRTRO) and the JRTCC (Sunday)

Siren ran the Agility course just for fun, and boy did she ever have fun!

 Here she is coming out of a tunnel…!!!

 On Sunday we ran the Lure course…..Oh My Gosh….they knew before we even got to the event that lure coursing was on the menu for the day…. my Turbie took quite a tumble on the last corner before the home stretch, so I don’t think he ended up with a good time….too bad…it was looking pretty good before that happened.

 Sunday April 12th, My pair o’ patient pups posed for pics! ( don’t worry this took less than 60 seconds and then freedom and a bonus balloon playtime….and yes closely supervised!) this year they are sporting lop ears….I think I’ll go for the perky look next year….they look a little sad….

 One of my intense passions is ART…and more specifically Pysanky which I learned from my Mom….. these are 4 very traditional eggs that I made about 10 years ago..maybe a bit older…time seems to be passing by quickly each year and I’m losing track!

These 3 eggs are 4 colors….this top one white yellow red black…traditional…. the bottom 2 are yellow pink blue black….kind of unconventional in color but traditional in pattern style.

These are my Trypillian eggs!! (also I went a little celtic on the bottom right…)My mom never made this style (because she thought they looked like snakes  

And this is my latest attempt….I am drawing with metallic gel pens….this kinda feels weird because in the wax resist style, you work with the white and gradually work your way to the darker colors (so your pattern is sort of applied in reverse) and this is “normal art” <draw a picture …color it in.

 This egg is sadly, not finished…having a tough time trying to “find the time”.

So….Wednesday April 1st was the first night NOT going to the studio…..we took the pups out for a good run…I’ll post a video of Turbo pushing his Basket ball….he’s such an awesome Doggie….He had a good nap curled up with me while we watched the Leonard Cohen Concert From London.

Wishing that the weather would get warmer sooner….I’m eager to get in the dirt! These are my Dutch Irises coming up….nice blue and deep purple.
