The Cottage on the Hill, 8x10 Collage

So every day the news is basically the same: a body is found, a car crashes through a house, an elderly person is lost, a bank is robbed, someone is bitten by a shark or an alligator. Well, maybe the animal bites don't happen every day, but the rest--yeah, pretty much every day.

When I am tired of all the tragedies, I like to retreat to my own little world, with purple hills and steps made of candy, out of reach of errant cars. A little whimsy is good for the soul.

Cassadaga House, 5x7, Original Oil

Cassadaga is a quirky little Florida town that was settled as a Spiritualist Camp. People flock here for psychic readings, and the whole place is very quaint, but I especially liked this little house. It is so typical of the depression-era houses in small towns all over this state.
