Arte y pico

Well it's been awhile, hasn't it? It's hard to get back into the swing of blogging once you stop, I've found. The computer can take up a vast amount of time, but so can life.

The lovely Ascender Rises Above gave me an award. The award is the "Arte y pico" award. Look, it comes with this real live award I get to put on my page here!...


Isn't she pretty?
I feel especially honored because I haven't been around for so long, and it means a lot to me that someone took the time to come back here and even remember me. Of course, she is one of my facebook friends, which I seem to have gravitated to lately, so perhaps that is why she thought of me. :) Regardless, the fact that she has paid attention to my paintings and thought to include me in this round of award giving...means the world to me.

There's rules though... ;)
I must now give the award to five other artsy bloggers....and other stuff. And since I'm a little rusty on the "how to's" of blogging I'll just copy what she wrote here first:

1) Award five blogs that contribute to the blogging community through creativity, design, and interesting material, regardless of language.
2) Name each of the five blog authors and provide a link to his or her blog.
3) Award recipients must show the Arte y Pico Award image and the name of the award-giving blog author, as well as the award-giving blog author’s blog link.
4) Award recipients must provide a link to the Arte y Pico blog.
5) Award recipients must show these rules.

1) I will pick bluetreeart first... because I always thought it was so nifty that she inspires so many artist's through her "other" blog about being creative every day. Next I will go with "failed painter" though a failed painter she is not! Third you must check out djkreutzer and her beautiful view of life. Number four: Aprovechar If I remember correctly she has a few blogs....must browse around. ;) and last but not least... creatrix jane! :)

Sheesh, I can think of five more now that I'm looking around again. Perhaps I will have to do a part two. I think I've followed all the rules now. I think. I'll have to double check my work later...

:)
Peace!

looking forward to looking at those you have chosen; I think I have only seen one of those blogs before. That is what is so great about these awards - getting out of your circle of blogs and exploring some new ones. Thanks for playing along and all your kind words!

those were some great blogs; i had a good time looking at them. thanks for playing along. met some new people.

that is crazy about the poet being your dads teacher. i had something similar a while back. i read a book something like twenty years prior and kept it around; showed it to a friend of mine - some twenty years later and the author was a professor of hers. crazy I tell ya!
