Photo of artist Ruth McCabe and her dog Jasper.

As a later-in-life artist, Ruth has found great joy in the Doodle. Sometimes, it is a dynamic explosion of lines and arcs filled with whimsy. Others, it is a magical, benevolent creature lurking in the ink.

Whatever you see in the drawing, it comes from a reservoir of creativity into which she has only recently tapped.

Spurred on by her loving Hubs, children, and close friends, she has dared to dream a bigger dream for herself.

There were seven. Seven who voted Country over Par There were seven. Seven who voted Country over Party.  Seven who stood against the others. 
It wasn’t enough,  but it was something. 

I’ve been feeling a bit discouraged; wondering what I can do. 

So I wrote thank you notes to the seven and included a bit of bling from my studio.
