Spotted Red Horse

Spotted Red Horse

This is a paper mache horse from a long time ago.
I'm sure it is one of my grandmother's creations.
It's one of my favorites.

(From the Schuster's Box
see February 13, 2013)

Morning Light

Morning Light

The rays of this morning's sunrise shown
through the ice drops and made the trees looks like festival lights.

A Figure from the Schuster's Box

A Figure from the Schuster's Box

Okay I have picked another item to close up from the Schuster's Box
(See February 13, 2013, a long time ago)

I believe someone in my family made her.
I had very artistic great aunts and my grandmother, of course,
was fabulous at animal figures.

I think I'll name her Spirit.

Tidbit from Cleaning the Office

Tidbit from Cleaning the Office

Sometimes you find a long lost note that brings
you back to why you chose your profession.
While cleaning up my office (which hasn't been done in an awful long time)
I found a few words of encouragement.

Thanks for helping me keep on track!

Betty Stivers

Betty (Elizabeth)  Stivers

I just love it when I come across a gem in the family files.
Here's an article featuring my Aunt Betty.
She was a high school student at Riverside High in Milwaukee in the 1920s.
I also attended Riverside for two years, but not until the 1970s.
The normal school is Milwaukee Downer College which my mother attended.

I just try to imaging her as this farmerette.

Paul Boruff Art

Paul Boruff Art

One of my favorite paintings from Paul
It reminds me of the Montana I love.
The feeling of peace comes over me when I gaze on it.



Paul will be part of the February/March showing of the
 Utah Arts Festival at the art gallery in
Artspace City Center, 230 South 500 West, Salt Lake City.
It begins on February 19, 2016.
