Fall Passing
The colors of the fall hydrangea in my garden are splendid. Because I didn’t cut it after it bloomed, the fading flowers pleasantly surprised me with indescribable shades. I couldn’t fully capture the purple-crimson and vibrant, yet fading colors here in this watercolor sketch — just like words, when they don’t fully express the intensity of emotions. My friend has passed away (on my mother’s birthday) and because I am on call for his wife, my dear friend, and their four children, this will be the only post this week. I will try to find the time to post next week after the funeral. Amid this chaotic time, I’m noticing all the more that art is everywhere and it is sustaining.

I'm an artist, wife and mother of two boys. I started my illustration business, The Occasional Palette over 35 years ago, when my oldest son was an infant. Once my children were in school, I began painting decorative, faux finishes and murals through my second business, Casart, now over 30 years old. My third business, Casart Coverings, is a springboard from my second.
