Post 14


Owls are fascinating creatures and we are lucky enough to have a few Great Horned Owls that hang around near the house. We hoot at them and they answer.

Rainbow Illusion
 | Texas Landscape by Rebecca Zook



Art Therapy

Post 10

Rainbows signify hope and that's precisely what we need right now. The world has changed. In the end, we will mourn what has been lost and those who have been lost. We have also gained perspective as a whole about who and what should be important in our lives and that change is possible. I just hope these lessons aren't lost as normalcy returns. I have hope, they won't.

Rainbow Illusion

Acrylic on Panel | 6” x 8”

You can see it, but not touch. Purity of color. A hidden door opened and reality revealed, but Is it real? Seek it and get no closer. Science and dreams. Logic and emotion collide when chasing rainbows.

Lunga Puffins by Rebecca Zook




Art Therapy
Post 5

I'm a little behind the curve right now. As I said to Ed last night, my daily life is really the same as it was before. He started mentioning dolphins in Italian canals, a civet wandering the street in Asia and much more. I hadn't heard any of this. My first thought was amazement at how rapidly Nature reclaims her domain. This quickly turned to horror at how palpable human impact is, but also how maybe smaller changes could have immediate impacts not just on the environment, but ourselves. I'm a realist. I know the issues are complicated and people have to make a living, but I hope lessons we are learning right now have a lasting impact. Companies who wouldn't let employees work from home are learning that in many cases, it's more than possible. Families are reconnecting. Neighbors are helping each other. I am watching all this and realizing I need to allow myself more down time. Self-imposed stress is just as bad. Painting is not down time when it's paying the bills. My Zen is my garden. I'm going to work in the garden this weekend and recapture some calm.

Enjoy these puffins. The trip Ed and I took to the wilds of Scotland is something I will never forget.

Lunga Puffins
20" x 16" | Acrylic on Panel

Cities are not for me. I prefer to visit the wilder places on this planet and the Isle of Lunga did not disappoint. It is 200 acres of unspoiled native habitat for a variety of seabirds, but the puffin is what drew me to the island. I've been enamored with this comical bird since childhood and observing them in person was truly a childhood dream realized. They had no fear of humans, so were mere feet from me busily digging their burrows and lining them with grass to house eggs for the next breeding cycle. Pausing only to dive from the cliffside to bring back fish for last years nearly grown chicks.

Squirrel in Tulip Garden Watercolor Art


Oh, tiptoe from the garden
By the garden of the willow tree
And tiptoe through the tulips with me
—Tiny Tim 

Tiptoe Through the Tulips

ART 
This wildlife illustration was inspired by a squirrel outside my studio window. Tulips on the window ledge inside the studio found their way into the painting.  I love the color in this painting. Although we think we see squirrels as brown or gray, this brown squirrel is made up of many colors including cadmium orange, burnt sienna, cobalt blue and yellow ochre. Click on the image to see the many colors in this painting.
