Sailing on the Prairies






I"m often asked why I moved to the prairies.
I always wanted to go sailing because the ocean is so calming and so close to the sky and clouds. I also love to drive and the prairies are much the same as the ocean but a bit more safer to navigate alone.
 I love to see the changing landscape the colours are big and bold and they jump out at you, or it's different shades of green with a streak of yellow. The clouds passing darken and deepens the colour. I think it's time to start painting what I see.
The pictures don't do the views justice.......... at times it just takes my breath away. Watching the clouds moving quickly over the fields, or just watching the clouds......breathless
When my mind is storming I go for a drive to calm my nerves and appreciate the beauty
that surrounds us.
My flowers do the same for me, I will stop and take pictures of wild flowers and wonder why so many people don't notice the beauty there. It calms me down like meditations and before I know it the rain has stopped. My Mteam friend has told me many times how blessed I am and I agree Everything I need right Now is here.










Happy New Year 2

​I call this Ukrainian New Year a tradition of celebrating using the Georgian calendar.
