Fell in love with the colours the wonderful embroidery with all of the tribes and 

am very happy to have discovered this.

July 1 

dennis daniel michael duffy

Have never liked this time of year.  July 1 about 1 hour past midnight my 16 year old son died on a rural road with 3 of his friends.  It is still questionable why he died, a suicide by the driver

Or a horrible mistake.  

I have read all of the entries I have made on my blog and in each one I have stated that I will 

Feel like this forever but after reading them all they are had their point of view and all of them

Were temporary and that no one entry was more important than the other BUT this year it is different.

I have a wonderful relationship with my son Conor and his beautiful family, Lizel, his partner.  The two of them have been in a magical love for years. I will always wish them love.

Their three kiddies Laim, Cohen and Stella. Lizel put this feeling of motherhood so well when she said that she wanted them to stay young longer

Lizel and Cohen

Liam

This angel is Stella

what a marvelous picture, Conor and Lizel

All the grief was taken away when the babies were born.  

So this morning I went through what I kept of Dennis and am putting it in a special place.

George my partner has been great understanding.

I know that live goes on but I will always have my children in my heart.

At last a painting

Bill

Wilfred Martin

I knew him as Bill and he literally ran the conversation.  Everyone would as 'where is Bill?" and when he showed up things began to happen and he loved it.  He was a dear soul to me and I will miss him endlessly

DECORATING A VASE

Diane a friend of mine asked if I would decorate a vase

 that she has made. An amazing piece,

So over the next while was able to draw on her vase 

with instructions of using a Chintz floral motif.

and great colors.  

Let me know what you think........

A TRIBUTE TO MR.G

This wonderful man was such a mentor to me...

when I was in art college 

I would go and see him asking a hundred questions about paint,techniques

and he would after a while kick me out. 

 I did this almost everyday

and he was good for oh 1/2 hour 

hen enough was enough.  I always

expected to see in the store and for the last while

 he was at home.

His daughter Jackie a most handsome woman 

with patience and a keen

sense for what she wanted to contribute to the store.  

You see this store is a landmark. 

 Anyone who was remotely serious 

about art came here. 

 The atmosphere was wonderful and all of the staff 

artists.

I found out today that Mr G. 

has passed away February 14 and I just

could not believe that he was 

in the other room.  This man was a respected

institution.  

I know that Jackie will not only carry on but will put

her mark on the store.  God Bless the Gwartzman family,

 my heart goes 

out to you.
