Books, games, art supplies and more dogs

The Arabian Nights, miniature art and studio equipment
This week was … there. Reading Marcus Aurelius helped. So did the oranges, the coffee, the leaves in the yard, the books and art. Talking with my spouse helped too. I kept returning to this quote from Marcus Aurelius so I did this gouache and ink painting. Then I added it to my “for encouragement”…

soothing the green dragons
One of my favorite leisure activities is to get a book out and settle in to my “lair”. Reading soothes the savage imaginary beast! So I’m creating some clocks, tote bags and other fun stuff with this image that I’ve titled “Dragon A Book Out”. https://society6.com/sue clancy And of course there are other art images of…
