World Nature Conservation Day and Steampunk art.

July 28th is the recognition date for 'World Nature Conservation Day” Saving our home planet may require divine intervention. So what we can all actively do is 'Smile and place gentle loving thoughts into the field of consciousness for our planet and all life forms.' Also, this day reminds me of J. Assange, E. Snowden, J. McAfee & C. Manning. the heroes and conservationists of the Constitution and making us aware of government overreach.

In other news: Our neighbor wanted their electric heater to find a new home, so I decided to paint it. The stove is mostly made of wood with the heater at the bottom protected by cast iron. Steampunk art seemed the most fitting for this project. I hear it will be a cold winter so this decorative electric-fan-heater will be useful. I have posted a recipe for a rolled oat banana breakfast cake. It was an experiment baking day. I like using the organic Monkfruit sweetener for regular sugar. This is a hefty cake and can be turned into cookie dough

The local art group has suggested/requested that we artists use our visionary art minds to create or paint something with feathers in an angelic theme. I am working on that idea, we only have a month to submit the art piece. It is a worthy project for everyone to try, whether in writing or as art. When, or if I create the art piece of a celestial creature I will post it here. If it is 2-D I will place it on my Fine Art America website. https://pixels.com/profiles/june-nissinen/shop Other thoughts? I did find two 1960s era books, the author is fantastic!

Try a little kindness each and every day.

Humanity matters, so stay cool-headed this month and know 'by faith' that it will get better very soon.

I had time to locate a topper for the cat garden totem. This decor came from the curtain rod section of the Habitat for Humanities store. It was a great find and only a couple of dollars. I also added paint to the wood stool, it is super nice now.

I went back outside for more neighborhood inspiration. That was after the heat wave moved east, whew! One day soon the bots and trolls will leave my blog site alone, then I can finally get some feedback from you all. I have my fingers crossed on that thought. Anyway, Have an interesting and blessed week everyone.

I am thinking about Christmas in July!

It is so hot outside that my mind wants to go straight to the cool weather of the Christmas Season. Blessed Yesuha it is time!

I made tumbleweed art while cooling off next to a fan the otherday. And yes, I actually did decorate and place those tumbleweeds on that tree a few years ago.

The month of July is about listening to music in a flower garden.

Vintage music sheet paper and hand-painted flowers that turned into something very nice. This was a relaxing project in celebration of July.

A great web link to keep an eye on, https://qfs.live/qis.html Yes, I really like this web "qfs.live" - Digital Currency such as XRP & XLM can be purchased at Uphold.com. Blessings and good cheer to everyone's 4th of July celebrations.

Be sure to keep a happy heart because summer fun is happening now.

Just having fun with mixed media. Check out the quantity of information on this intriguing website:For The People. https://forthepeople.space/

Happy Father's Day to everyone. The cat garden totem is almost done.

I was blessed to have had a terrific father, and equally graced with a memorable spouse who was a fantastic dad to our child. Both of these men made the world a better place. "The purpose of life is to contribute in some way to making things better." Robert F. Kennedy. "Children make you wat to start life over." Muhammad Ali The 'Garden Totem' is almost done, it will eventually have a hanger for a towel and a couple of hooks. These boards had been scratch posts wrapped with carpet. Now they are repurposed to be decorative items. It was fun and I know that Tiger Sky would approve. Have a stupendous Sunday. More touch-ups to the 5ft Garden Totems -now to find a special topper for the flat board. June
