From  the  base  of  the  Organ  Mountains,

the  Town  of  Las Cruces, New Mexico

sprawls  to  the  West  like  a  suburb  at  the  Horizon.

It's  a  rare  sight  to  catch  the  desert  in  Bloom.

It  only  lasts  a  few  days  when  it  does  happen.

Tiny  Yellow  Poppies  with  orange  centers 

​ open  all  at  once.

The  chilled  Desert Air  becomes  heavy  with  perfume

and  my  Soul  is  gladdened  that  Winter  has  finally  Died.

A Short Walk in Greenpoint, Brooklyn, New York

​The  Greenpoint, Brooklyn, New York  Neighborhood

is  several  hundred  years  old.

Brownstone, Walk Up Buildings  are  currently  valued

 at  a  small  fortune,

even  tho  they  appear  to  have  seen  better  days.


Can  you  spot  the  sterling  silver  bracelet  hanging  on  a  picket  here ?

My  guess  is  it  was  found  nearby  and  placed  with  hopes 

​the  owner  would  recover  it.

SKETCHING  in  SOUTH CAROLINA

2/11/2017

10 Comments

 
One  of  the  most  satisfying  ways  to  unwind  in  the  afternoon

is  having  the  Freedom  to  sketch  wherever  I  may  find  myself.

Each  sketch  represents  an  hour  of  peace

with  no  requests,  instructions  or  rules . . .

Smoothly  slipping  into  everything  around  me,

I  become  no  one  other  than  an  awe  inspired  observer

of  the  amazing  creation  wherein  we  all  belong.

The  pencils,  pens,  brushes  and  paints

merge  with  my  being

transferring  perception  to  paper,  

documenting  the  moment  quickly.


Good . . .  or  not ,
they  now  exist  for  you  to  enjoy.

Please  visit  my
 
SKETCHBOOK

by  clicking  on  the  word  above

Have  a  look  at  the  most  recent  additions.

Here's  the  first  one,  worked  on  a  breezy  65  degree  day . . .

AUTUMN  JOURNEY  to  NEW MEXICO

© Fly on Autumn Flowering Clematis ~ Undine DeFilippo 2016

Everyone  loves  the  smell  of  crisp  autumn  New York State  air  when  
the  clematis  vine  blooms  and  the  asters  glow  in  the  afternoon  sun.
Picture

But,  an  Autumn  Flowering  Desert  is  something  special  to  behold.
It  doesn't  happen  every  year.  The  conditions  have  to  be  just  right
​or  September  and  October  can  be  a  burnt  out  dusty  mess.
Picture

Unexpected  rain  made  some  growers  very  happy  and  others  sobbed  over 
 the  blossom  end  rot  it  caused  on  pomegranates,  melons  and  the  like.

For  now . . . 
the  Rio  Grande  River  is  no  longer  a  minor  trickle.  


Rarely  seen  Passion  Vines  are  boasting   magnificent  flowers  
bigger  than  pink  Spalding  Balls,  happily  embedded  with  bees,
requiring  a  great  deal  of  patience  to  have  a  photo  without  them
crammed  in  massive  clusters.

Enjoy  the  following  slideshow  with  God  blessed  eyes.

I'll  be  happy  to  read  your  comments,
if  you're  moved  to  do  so,
which  remain  as  anonymous  as  you  choose.


​Thank  you  !
