Lonely Dignity...
Jim was driving along the highway through Eagle Point here in Southern Oregon when he saw this old wooden historic home. It was originally built in 1870 by a civil war veteran. Jim said: "The dramatic lighting gave it a feeling of lonely dignity."

Change o' pace...
Not a lot of finished art to post right now...a time of reflection, dreaming, analyzing, musing...letting it all "perk"...a shift in priorities for a season.
So, in the meantime, I thought it would be fun to highlight some of Jim's photography. He has a series of photos taken of various architecture in Oregon.
Today's is amusing to me.... He was driving along the road through Gold Hill, and just HAD to stop when he spotted this house. He said "As you can see, some our folks in Oregon have their own vision of beauty and architecture!"
He titles it: "Distinctive Oregon Housing"
Enjoy,

"Little Cat's Four Season Fantasy"
Well, since this IS my blog, I think I will finish up the parade of cats with my own creation, "Little Cat's Four Season Fantasy".
Here's a close-up... click to enlarge...
And of course, here is the kitty that started it all...my inspiration...Butterfly, when she was a few months old, all tuckered out after a hard day playing "tiger".
Thanks for reading,

PS: Until the auction in October 2006, "Little Cat's Four Season Fantasy" was shown at Lawrence's Jeweler, 232 E Main, Medford OR
