My latest piece. Finished completely on Sunday. Hadn’t planned on mounting it quite this way, but the piece grew.
Hagitude
Hagitude
So Palouse Women Artists has a show coming up in March called “Out of the Blue”. I had been having trouble coming up with an idea. Many suggestions have been shared in the group as to what “out of the blue” could mean to someone.
Then out of the blue, I had an inspiration. It came from a member of a group of ladies of a certain age who shared an essay she found about Hagitude by Dr. Sharon Blackie. I read it and the image I wanted firmly planted itself in my brain, so I had to do it this weekend.
Digital painting that will be printed 12″ X 18″ and then mounted. I will eventually upload it to my Fine Art America shop, but not until after the show.
Aches and pains
Digital painting on DeviantArt. Was feeling not so good and this is what I was feeling that day.
Coming together
This site is slowly looking like I want it to. Trying the new Gutenberg interface. Needless to say, there is a bit of a learning curve when you don’t read the tutorials LOL!!! Wasn’t happy with the gallery plug in I had originally, but a fellow woman artist who is a web designer and WP expert pointed me in the right direction and things are looking so much better.
test
checking to see if something works.
Getting there
The rebuild is coming along nicely. Still getting the hang of some of the features of the theme and the gallery I am using. Haven’t even started looking at side bar stuff and a few other add ons. Figure just get the basics up then seriously tweek it.
I am liking the front page layout, reasonably uncluttered and I like the boxes, so now it is easier to get to various areas of my site. The shop page is going to need a serious major overhaul, but the links are still working at least.
Slowly rebuilding.
Was able to import all the blog posts over from my dot com blog, so hopefully I know have this set up properly to have the posts show up there when I post on my hosted site. Do need to see if I have a backup of the site before things puked, but if not, rebuilding from scratch would be good to get a cleaner site.
Hello world!
Purple Ducky Designs is back online! Will be getting it back up and fully running this week.
Sunset and trees

The dust is settling
and the rebuilding of the website continues slowly. I know better what I am doing this time, so things should not be a mess when I am done (I hope LOL!).
