How often do I wish I could buy my family and friends all they wanted for Christmas. I did what I could for my children and other family members, but found it hard finding gifts for friends.
I then realized I possessed a gift and talent I could share. Years ago, I began asking friends their favorite animal, I would then draw it and presented it as a Christmas gift. It was met with great appreciation and I felt, well …pleased.
I sure have not limited it to the holidays, ever so often I would see pictures my friends post on Facebook and one would just “speak” to me. There is a great amount of joy that comes with drawing a portrait.
Yes, art is a small business venture for me, yet periodically gifting my gift comes with a great sense of satisfaction. Whatsoever God has blessed you with share !

Gifting your Gift
Fall Colors Along the Concord River, Lowell MA
Whether it is a babbling brook, running river, roaring fall or the vast ocean, you will find me there with a camera. I am not sure what it is about a body of water I find so appealing, but whatever it is I am drawn to it. The images in the blog are places I have visited before at different times of the year, I wanted to go back and see the Fall colors, so glad I did. Wamesit Falls Overlook and Muldoon Park are in South Lowell great places to walk or just relax and enjoy the view.

Hawk With Prey
It is a beautiful day, I saw a gorgeous bird enjoying its meal and it allowed me to take these shots. I love hawks, eagles birds of prey, they are so lovely to look at and majestic. I tried getting a shot in flight but, it was too busy enjoying its meal.

Relaxing Place After Work
I just sat here relaxed, listened to the fall and watched the ducks. I love the sound of the water fall.
