Plotting a new path, can't wait to get going. Using AI, art, crafts, writing, and ever-widening circles of artistic experimentation, I will gradually stock the Emporium and announce a Grand Opening! Until then join me for the journey.
Had a very Happy Thanksgiving and a birthday weekend casino getaway.

Brainstorming Christmas-themed images I can submit to Shutterstock... good enough reason to decorate this year? Probably not.

Michigan winters aren't Christmas-y enough??

Happy Thanksgiving! Gratitude is learning how to not take things for granted.

Tried something new. My AI-created NightCafe images on 8" x 8" canvases. Color and clarity pretty darned good. I would not feel bad adding more of these to G2S Emporium inventory.

Meanwhile, back at the ranch... I'm chipping away at my pile of projects. This bracelet was a gift for a friend, but I am in process of making 10 more with minor variations for the Emporium / any craft show booths I can do for holidays.

Examine this AI animation. NOTE: the beautiful wino wedding party is not real, just figments of my imagination. Magical wine glass never overflows.
