While the tourists gawk, buy souvenirs and get sunburned, the permanent residents of tropical paradises have harder lives. Here are some of the women I spied hard at work on our recent trip through the Caribbean to Brazil.
Hi, Kathleen. What a marvelous trip. Glad you took note of how people really live. To be a tourist is to stand in a privileged position. Have a safe journey home. best, nadia
I've been doing daily art for a long time, and everything since 2010 is documented in my other blog. This year it's painting. Click on the photo to check it out.

About me
I make abstract art -- usually with a needle but sometimes with a pen, brush or camera, scissors and glue, pliers and wirecutters, whatever is there. I have a husband, two sons, seven sewing machines, a big messy studio and lots of other people's art. Life is good!
Kathy, what a reminder of how blessed we are to live where we live and to be able to play and create!
