Color Fall Yellow

Most often by September's end the leaves are gone from the trees in Anchorage.  Its the start of our winter.  This year the weather has been warmer than normal and the leaves are turning beautiful shades of yellow throughout Anchorage.

Reminds one of the fall in St. Louis, Missouri when an old oak tree on a main street where I was raised; this tree would bloom into a golden glow from sunlight filtering over, under and through leaves on branches as thick as my thighs.  The age of the mighty oak had to have been at least two years old.  Massive in size and beauty. 

I need to check with my mother to see if there are any photos of the 'golden globe' in the family photo box she keeps.  A photo of this tree would be a treasure for my memory box.

Welcome to my world of art

A journey begins.

Words will appear.

My lips will pucker as I think of things to say.  Noise will emit through my lips as I type, keeping tune with songs or talking to a love one in another room.  A banter of teasing or saying "have you seen this..did you read?"

That's how I became to be 'Fishlips'.

I take pictures.  

I paint.

I create fun things.

Most often my creations are very useful items. 

Then there are the times my work is Awesome.  I think this daily.  But see below <G>

Sometimes my work sucks.  Bigger fishlips - a pouter I'm not ~ well not too often - my guy can pout much better and he is really good at Putting Out the Lips with a hound dog look to his beautiful baby blues.

I am only a woman, just watch out for my tears.  Alligator tears but that's a tale for another day.
