Plodding along...that's been what I've been up to lately. Not in the same spirit as the tortoise and the hare, but I've felt an awful lot like a tortoise lately.

| The Tortoise and the Hare |
The Wiffee and I are getting ready to sell our house and move into a mobile home. It's simply gotten too expensive here in the state of California to stay in our house any longer. Taxes, insurance premiums, fees as well as living expenses keep going up, and the income isn't increasing at the same rate.
So we've been working on packing, staging our house, stuff like that.
Meanwhile, I've still got a habitat diorama to finish for the local nature museum. It figures that I have to deal with both of these issues at the same time!!
Here's how the background painting for the diorama finished out:
Admittedly, the painting appears much more detailed when seen in person than it does in this small photo!
And as for paintings -- well, that's fallen by the wayside for now. Too busy, too tired, all that stuff -- I just can't seem to continue on a painting I began a month or so ago. Someday!
Hopefully, I'll finish the diorama next week and I'll post pictures of it here! Until then...
