This is a pho­to­graph of my art stu­dio. This is the won­de­ful light that I have start­ing in mid Octo­ber. My hibis­cus has begun to thrive and will bloom through the win­ter… in the sum­mer they resie in the shade and a lush green with­out any blooms. Octo­ber takes the leaves off the trees that block the light and it become an indoor spring. The nat­ural light brings me to dif­fer­ent kinds of draw­ings. I posted this image because it cre­ates a sense of calm for me.

On the wall are some of my draw­ings that I did over the sum­mer months.

I look for­ward to the win­ter week­ends here. I’ll sit in my chair, drink tea, cof­fee, or choco­late depend­ing on my mood. I’ll draw the land­scapes of my memories.

I’ve just started get­ting my draw­ings up online. You can check them out here.

This is one of my favorite toys. He’s a poi­son dart frog. Den­dro­bates aura­tus, also known as the green and black poi­son dart frog is a brightly-coloured mem­ber of the order Anura native to Cen­tral Amer­ica and north-western parts of South Amer­ica and was intro­duced to Hawaii. I love his col­ors and his pat­tern. I have pho­tographed him in lots of locations.

It was a bit unset­tling how­ever when I came to my desk the other day to find him engaged in this bal­anc­ing act. I wasn’t sure how he got that way but some­how his show­ing off seemed a plea to be pho­tographed. No, he isn’t glued or attached in any way… he’s bal­anc­ing on these two peb­bles. He stood on his head for 12 days. It was only when I banged into the desk with my mes­sen­ger bag that he fell over.

He’s moved over to another piece of fur­ni­ture and he’s been there for two weeks. I think he’s going for a record.
