Working from home

Charles has officially begun working from home during the "shelter-in-place" period. Wesley comes to the basement work space from time to time to verify that Charles is, in fact, actually working!

Street art

We have enjoyed the many people in our neighborhood who pass by our home every since we moved here last summer. Since the state locked things down this week, we've noticed even more people biking, walking dogs, jogging, and so forth.

This morning, we placed a "chalk-the-walk" station in front of the house, inviting passerby to create something to share. We barely made it back inside before the first street artist was at, with more to follow!

Curious cat

 

Charles was in the basement study this morning and had an artificial candle on the window ledge. Wesley saw it and was intrigued by the "flickering" wick!

And just like that...

One week ago we got 8.5" inches of snow. Today, it was 63 and nary a snowflake in sight!

An interesting time

Making art in the spring sun

We have had an interesting time of late, staying close to home and doing our part to mitigate the affects of the pandemic. This was the second Sunday that Charles videoed his sermon since the church is closed for the foreseeable future. 

In the afternoon, Charles could be found on the patio, having cleared off the patio so he could work on a painting, "plein  air."

Inside and out

One piece begun on Sunday 

Mahler-inspired piece completed on Friday

Charles has been busy in the studio recently, starting one painting on Sunday, outside in the sun, and finishing another, inside, due to cold/snow!

First day of spring

The first day of spring in Boulder was a white one, with nearly ten inches of snow falling. This was after several days of temps in the 50s & 60s!
