You see things and say ‘why?’ But I dream things that never were and say ‘why not?’ ~ George Bernard Shaw

This is a quote from George Bernard Shaw. (July 26, 1856-November 2, 1950) He was a Nobel-Prize and Oscar-winning Irish playwright, critic, and socialist.

I like this quote because I do feel people in general see the things, and happenings in their world, each in their own unique way. Some are satisfied with the surface appearance of what their life is like, or maybe ask a rhetorical ‘why’, but dig no deeper. Then there are others, who are not satisfied with the status quo, so let their curiosity lead them down many other pathways, to find out more.

I know I’m curious about lots of things, and want to know the usual answers to, who, what, where, when, and why. Looking for answers, especially when you go googling, can take a long time, because one thing you find, leads to another interesting thing. Curiosity is a good thing!

CRICKET CAT, CACTUS, and ART

I think my cat, Cricket, likes my art project. Or maybe she’s just curious? She was on the table looking at the cactus paintings of cactus in a clay pot.

If you’re wondering what on earth is in that flower pot, well…it is rocks, painted to look like cacti, cactus, a bunch of cactuses? Well, anyway, I saw something done like this on, of course, Pinterest, and had to try it. I’ve painted on rocks for years…mostly animals, and have done Peace signs, and words, so why not some cactus. I’m sure a real cactus would be laughing at the wanna be cactus, but hey…I tried. So…Nailed or Failed…either way, I enjoyed painting them.:)

The painting in the background, I did many years ago. It’s with acrylics, and on a thick piece of paper.

For now, I’ll keep painting rocks, and pictures, and drawing Zentangles. I have a really cool one started in black and silver, and I’ll post it when it’s done!
