I shared a "morning of art" before I went to the store and came back in a foul mood.
I& #39;ll shake off that mood now & re-share these. If anyone wants to chat about the art/music/themes to get your mind off the depressing times we live in, I& #39;ll be here for a while.

2) I& #39;ll share them in reverse order from this morning, as a thread. Some of these might be new to you. If we& #39;ve only recently been following each other, then maybe you& #39;ve not seen any of these yet. Last one will say /end thread/ https://twitter.com/buske_natalie/status/1280853743270051840?s=20">https://twitter.com/buske_nat...
3) This one needs a cover thumbnail. I& #39;d left it off some of these initially because it& #39;s fun for people to not know what the picture will look like ahead of time, but if there& #39;s no thumbnail on the video, fewer people click on it. https://twitter.com/buske_natalie/status/1280852180489187329?s=20">https://twitter.com/buske_nat...
4) I& #39;ll always remember the day that I stood in this spot, when taking pictures around the city to look at later to paint. It was the day of my daughter& #39;s ACT test & I was very nervous for her. Husband & I were restless, waiting for her to finish. https://twitter.com/buske_natalie/status/1280850811095003138?s=20">https://twitter.com/buske_nat...
5) After learning about this tropical rose, I& #39;d like to have this plant... but it needs a lot of room to grow, so I have to wait until we buy a house. Right now, my garden is restricted to patio containers. https://twitter.com/buske_natalie/status/1280850421058342913?s=20">https://twitter.com/buske_nat...
6) I learn about new flowers when I need to paint one for a specific project goal. This is a one of several types of flowers described as "Lenten Rose" or "Lenten Flower". I& #39;ve since seen a pink ruffly one that I& #39;d love to have one day. https://twitter.com/buske_natalie/status/1280849325074063369?s=20">https://twitter.com/buske_nat...
7) This one was a personal challenge. I was to paint whatever image came to mind when listening to the work of an original pianist/composer. This was an interesting project and it pushed me to paint in a slightly different style. https://twitter.com/buske_natalie/status/1280847723491741697?s=20">https://twitter.com/buske_nat...
8) A lot of these were projects for the books I was working on. This was for "50 Oil Paintings Inspired by Savannah, Georgia". These cookies are small, but addictive. So tiny- have another. One more... one more... Eat the plate too, lol https://twitter.com/buske_natalie/status/1280847338769133569?s=20">https://twitter.com/buske_nat...
9) 2 of our 3 kids- ah, this was before the quarantine and masking madness... those already feel like long ago "good old days"
We need to take those days BACK! https://twitter.com/buske_natalie/status/1280847006949429255?s=20">https://twitter.com/buske_nat...

10) This was inspired by a previous year when the church had a floral display and each member of the congregation was invited to add a different flower to the display. Easter isn& #39;t just a special day at church. It cannot be "cancelled". https://twitter.com/buske_natalie/status/1280846669379260416?s=20">https://twitter.com/buske_nat...
11) We& #39;re letting go of our losses, but I bring it up because there& #39;s still no reconciliation in our nation. Obama era policies deeply hurt & ruined so many of us- yet there& #39;s still denial & outright hostility about what happened.

12) That was our first hurricane evacuation. I& #39;d been thru -20 degree life threatening cold, blizzards, tornadoes, floods, hail storms, etc... but never a hurricane. "How long do we have to get out????"

13) We still get this kind a lot, but also other varieties now too. It helps to place feeders in or near a plant known to attract hummingbirds. https://twitter.com/buske_natalie/status/1280844028095991808?s=20">https://twitter.com/buske_nat...

15) We get bluebirds here sometimes, but not as often as the others. Cardinals are here every day, often. Yesterday there were five cardinals on the patio all at once- juveniles and one male. https://twitter.com/buske_natalie/status/1280842315368718336?s=20">https://twitter.com/buske_nat...
16) I love to collect sand dollars, but only if they are no longer living. You aren& #39;t supposed to remove them if they are still alive, and I wouldn& #39;t want to. They are amazing creatures. https://twitter.com/buske_natalie/status/1280841661497708544?s=20">https://twitter.com/buske_nat...
17) Matthew has since been successfully released back to the wild. https://twitter.com/buske_natalie/status/1280841471072047107?s=20">https://twitter.com/buske_nat...
18) Seeing this makes me want to plan our next beach day. https://twitter.com/buske_natalie/status/1280841042762366976?s=20">https://twitter.com/buske_nat...
19) Oh my, I didn& #39;t realize how many I& #39;d shared today. I have to go- it& #39;s about time to start dinner prep. Hate to make you go scrolling to see the others, but don& #39;t worry I& #39;ll share these again at some point. Or you can visit my website where the vids are in a menu
