Jeep (one of the most beautiful cats on earth) would like to pass on this information that she found on Gigi’s blog.
Thank you, Gigi, and Jeep! Hugs to Gigi’s cat, Em! (Another one of the most beautiful cats on earth)
Gigi’s Chicago

we all love different things
I love Chicago
this photo
makes Her look beautiful
which is easy to do
since She is gorgeous
but things look different
from the ground
and it depends
on where you’re standing
while the city stays the same
the people change
today’s Chicago
isn’t like the one
I grew up in
I’ve lived here all my life
and now there are places
I can no longer visit
because of the violence
places that have been
turned into danger zones
the violence is getting worse
people are angry
angry at being poor
at police brutality
at the status quo
at the fact that nothing changes
for the better
that promises are broken
or were never intended
to be made real
I love Chicago
She’s beautiful
when I’m standing on Michigan Avenue
across from the Art Institute
and The Bean
I breathe Her in
watch the kids…

From Marina Kanavaki at Art Towards a Happy day, here is the second sign of the Zodiac as imagined by Anakreon Kanavakis, Marina’s father. Seeing each astrological sign go by, in a drawing by him, is adding another joy to my life.

Today is the first day of Taurus, the second sign of the Zodiac. On a Hybrid Solar Eclipse too!
Taurus is afixed earth sign.
Reliable, persistent, and stable, the warmhearted bulls love their stability and find comfort in consistency, extravagance and nature’s beauty.
Starting from the last [12th] sign, I’ll be posting these original illustrations, Anakreon Kanavakis created for a calendar. [check it out here]
I love these so much, I designed a whole set of products with them at my art shop.
Here are a few.












Beautiful words with a message. Thank you, Holly! ❤️🌹
The small lake shimmers with light
reeds rustle beneath
the feet of a fawn.
Leaning forward her pink tongue
curls backward
spattering the sweetness of life
into her nose and eyes.
Spotted ears pull sideways,
heeding the sigh of the forest,
the breath of a breeze.
The kiss of sunlight transforms
green to autumn gold, brown and rust.
beyond the edge of the wood
summer collides with fall
in tender places of the wild.
Do No Harm
First shot: My tree, on Tim’s place in New Mexico, with a rainbow over it! LOVE! Tim’s place is gorgeous. Check it out!
Feeling a bit mushy these last weeks. Apparently you can’t reblog twice. Holly did this post on October 29, 2020. Loved it then. Love it now. Her message is more important now than ever. Yes, I did the costumes in the vid.

Resa and Norm
Recently I came across a photograph of our lovely Fashionista, Resa McConaghy, and her beloved Norm.
Norman is a GUITAR PLAYER & COMPOSER. They lived in Miami for almost a year in the 80’s. Norman was working on writing songs and had an arrangement with a recording studio there. They lived in an amazing older home on Miami Beach. It was quite grand with a Florida Room and a maid’s apartment along the side. Per Resa, The original owners must of had a fab life there. They were renting it from an Argentine businessman who had bought it.
When they returned with Norm’s songs it led to a record deal in the 1990’s.
Norman at work!
Love is What is Needed
by Holly Rene Hunter
Here in paradise
the sun goes down on the
crescent shore of an empty beach
she found herself with a guitar man
and A life time of memories
It seemed so clear then and now
love is what is needed
I Can Never Thank Holly Enough For Her Friendship!
