There are so many things that I hate about social media, but one of the things I LOVE is seeing someone I know following something I'm just discovering... especially if it's super niche. Love your mermaid and her odd-looking fish.
Beautiful etching. Beautiful watercolors by you. What you wrote brought this song to my mind especially last verse (maybe about your big move or whatever) —-
Thanks for sharing the story and the artwork. I'm an art teacher, and I paint mostly animals with added personality characteristics, so I always enjoy discovering a convergence! I did a quick check on Frederick in Wikipedia and the first image I found was hilarious to me. Especially because I'm in the final stages of writing my dissertation for an EdD in Art Ed!

Ha! Perfect!

Yes! There’s nothing quite like it. It feels very intimate sometimes.
Aw nuts Substack changed the line spacing. Next to last is about Fate which I think of as 3 loving goddesses.
I love this. I am quite touched. Thank you so much, Penny.

When You Wish Upon a Star
By Cliff Edwards
When you wish upon a star
Makes no difference who you are
Anything your heart desires
Will come to you
If your heart is in your dream
No request is too extreme
When you wish upon a star
As dreamers do
Fate is kind
She brings to those who love
The sweet fulfilment of
Their secret longing
Like a bolt out of the blue
Fate steps in and sees you through
When you wish upon a star
Your dreams come true
!
That etching!!
