Phthalo Moons ~cold


COLD MOON

The Cold Moon has the longest night reign of all the full moons as the nights are the longest in December.  He's out there all night long for all to see ...but most everyone is indoors because it's too cold and too dark outside.
~no one wants to catch a cold in winter.

IF ...glow

"We will make electricity so cheap that only the rich will burn candles."  Thomas Alva Edison's major improvements to the incandescent lightbulb sent a glow through the globe, and it was finally possible to see the 99% perspiration beading from the 1% inspiration.

Phthalo Moons ~beaver


BEAVER MOON

This particular full moon was named after the beaver as it was the best light and last good chance by which the beavers could get themselves situated for the cold winter.  This light was also excellent for capturing and skinning these same beavers...

Coffee Mugs

The glue to consistently satisfying drawings is your enthusiasm.  Without it your separate skills never congeal, and your drawing drifts to aimlessness, or deflates to merely competent.

IF ...snow

Whose woods these are I think I know.
His house is in the village though;
He will not see me stopping here 
To watch his woods fill up with snow.

My little horse must think it queer
To stop without a farmhouse near
Between the woods and frozen lake
The darkest evening of the year.

He gives his harness bells a shake
To ask if there is some mistake.
The only other sound's the sweep 
Of easy wind and downy flake.

The woods are lovely , dark and deep.
But I have promises to keep,
And miles to go before I sleep,
And miles to go before I sleep.

~Robert Frost
