Inquiries may always come   to me . It's bunny season in the studio Seems like spring has been ushering rabbits on to my easel for a couple of years now. I paint intuitively, which means life circumstances to steer my subject matter. Each day I ask myself what to invite into my paintings based on the things I have seen and felt. One such source is my dreams, and I can tell you my dreams have been hopping lately. Some say that dreaming of rabbits symbolizes prosperity and good fortune.

If she hasn't found a home by then she will be sent to an exhibition later this summer and available to purchase in July.

Email problems, internet down, website issues, a major billing problem with my cell phone - all the things that wind one up tighter and tighter. They are resolved now - knock on wood - and so it was extra wonderful to pull Dandelion back onto my easel for some final touches. And fitting, too, that a powerful little storm cell whipped through just as I signed her. Maybe the storm washed away all the negative energy - one can hope, right? Meanwhile, I still have a good fistful of dandelions here in the studio and am going to give them another go. Who do you suppose will show up next? Thanks for taking the tim...

But take it a step further and paint my own patterns?   That idea sure got me through errands lickety spilt!   When do you get your best ideas? Kim ksantini@turtledovedesigns.com
