“Women of a Certain Age”


     I have featured Susan Webb Tregay earlier, and I really love her work, the expressiveness, freedom, purposeful lines and humor.    She said, about this art above, "My entry to ArtFields! “Women of a Certain Age”, 46x108”. A young woman anxious about the responsibilities of womanhood, an exhausted mother, and finally being relegated to an observer of life. These will be presented as one tapestry-like piece."   

I looked her up and found so many great examples of her carefree work to share.

 Here's some thoughts from Danny Gregory, an artist know for his drawings, humor and his essays. I'm including it for you to see or skip?


Trouble drawing?  Procrastinating?  Stalling rather than starting?  Judging rather than doing?Does a blank page feel a little intimidating?


15 tips to help you just draw

Here are 15 tips on what to tell yourself to loosen up and just go for it:
  1. It’s just a drawing.

  2. It’s just a page in a sketchbook.

  3. It’s just a book on a shelf.

  4. It’s just fun.

  5. It’s just a moment in your life.

  6. It’s just a glimmer of beauty.

  7. It’s just an opportunity to learn and grow.

  8. It’s just gonna make you feel good if you let it.

  9. It’s just ten minutes.

  10. It’s not an evaluation of who you are.

  11. It’s not gonna be graded.

  12. It’s not gonna be critiqued.

  13. It’s not going to go on your permanent record.

  14. It’s (still) just a drawing.

  15. Time to draw.





A remarkable discovery has been made across the islands of the Aldabra Atoll in Seychelles—over 180,000 giant tortoises. This thriving population showcases an inspiring tale of recovery and resilience.
Once nearly wiped out in the 19th century due to overexploitation, these ancient giants have bounced back, thanks to decades of dedicated conservation efforts. Their comeback is a testament to the power of sustained environmental protection and habitat management.
As key ecological engineers, these tortoises play a crucial role in maintaining their ecosystem, shaping vegetation, and dispersing seeds. Their story is a powerful reminder of what committed conservation can achieve.
