Surprise visitors

We had some surprise visitors today at the parsonage: three Canada Geese, residents from the nearby park. Weskey was most intrigued by our guests!

Making tracks at the parsonage

"Oh, the joy of a snow day during a pandemic"

We had 8.5" inches of fresh snow Tuesday night and the beauty of a winter's morning was a wonderful sight. Also a treat to see was several deep tracks in the snow left behind by a neighborhood raccoon!

Ready for Lent

Charles completed his painting for the Season of Lent with this painting. Titled, "Quadragesima" (Fortieth), it is a canvas that measures 48x60 and is done with oil on canvas.

A surprise blessing

We had a visitor to the parsonage this afternoon, Myrle Myers, a member of our church, who was delivering a hand-made quilt she had done to add to Charles' cross collection!

Ash Wednesday @ home

 We observed an unusual Ash Wednesday tonight with a virtual gathering.

Four in the bag

Tableau V: A subtle shade of Mondrian

Tableau VI: Classic Mondrian

Tableau VII: Mondrian goes dark

Tableau VIII: Mondrian does pastel

Charles has been working on a series of paintings (18x24) inspired by the Tableau paintings by Piet Mondrian. It's been fun, working in a controlled style after his larger, more fluid paintings!

Now at the R Gallery

Charles' 6x6 painting, Jos lampaat osaisivat puhua (If sheep could talk) which was recently in a show at the Museum of Boulder, is now hanging at the R Gallery in downtown Boulder as part of a Boulder Artist's Association mini-show!

His piece is at the upper-right corner of the dsiplay.

Another day, another Zoom

Wesley is doing the best he can to stay focused on his own well-being during all of the Zoom meetings that we've been taking part in over the past eleven months!

Groundhog Day 2021

Punxsutawney Phil, the world's most famous furry forecaster, popped out of his burrow this morning and predicted six more weeks of winter, much to the disappointment for his legions of adoring fans.
