Export to PDF | Export to DOCTo my own advice. Here is what I told everybody. For an entire month. The month of March, 2017. “You cannot do it all. Choose wisely. Because balance is a myth.” Which is WHY… My June 2017 computer desktop calendar is SIX. DAYS. LATE. This same monthly calendar, which […]

Export to PDF | Export to DOC If left to my own devices, there isn’t much Christmas in my heart. Nothing within me looks forward to December. In my mind, this is a month that feels to me like forced-group-insanity. I don’t like to be told what to do. I don’t like to go along with the […]
Export to PDF | Export to DOCI do not like sand in my bed. I do like crisp clean sheets, multiple throw pillows, and a dust ruffle.

TODAY seems a fitting occasion to post photos I’ve been saving from “Phase 1” of our big Grocery Store Beautification Project last spring. Who would have thought we could turn the old Travelers Rest “Winn Dixie” into the uplifting […]
Export to PDF | Export to DOCSo many rich memories are wrapped up in this oil painting. I recently finished creating this scene from Bowens Island, South Carolina. I’m really pleased with how it turned out! There is nothing more rewarding to me than taking one of my mediocre photos and helping it come alive again as a piece of art. […]
Export to PDF | Export to DOCThere are few things I find as restful, as the views in the South Carolina Lowcountry. Enjoy this Painting of “rest” all month-long. To make this calendar your computer desktop for the month of September, click on the image above, then download it from the new page that opens. […]
Export to PDF | Export to DOCWe have a new store called Sunflower. Just like the sunflower in the painting, I’m not quite ready to show it off. Our Sunflower store opened on July 10th, and it has been quite busy with shoppers, considering how we haven’t really shared much about it. Really nothing other than […]
