Go for a ride

May is National Bike Month!  What a great time to cycle out doors and catch some fresh air!

Biking is one of those activities that can be enjoyed at any age.  Catch some rays, burn some calories and have some fun!

Celebrate National Bike Month!

Need some inspiration?

I recently spent the day at the New York Botanical Gardens with some dear friends. We walked the entire indoor garden and saw the many variations of these beauties.

 These magnificent flowers are truly a work of art!

Flowers are a big source of inspiration to me and my art. I love the colors and the perfection of every single petal.

                                                                                                                             To me flowers communicate love, friendship, gratitude.

                                                                                                                             
                                                                                                                                Good Luck, Congratulations, Success.



                                 If the flowers could only talk!

I hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving. I was fortunate to be home cooking. I know it's  a lot of work, but a house full of special people and the smell of a turkey roasting is heart warming.

Especially with my favorite pet Aimy.
