Out of This World

Welcome to another edition of Artful Notes, where art might take you out of this world, a song might have you reminisce, and the 12-year-old in you might chuckle.

Thanks for coming along, and if you would be so kind to share this newsletter with your friends, I would appreciate it!

Let’s go!

Art I’ve Found

Jonas Hangartner

When I first came across the art of Jonas Hangartner on X, I was amazed at the vibrancy and colors that seemed from another world. I learned he uses a variety of infrared filters to transform scenes that, while beautiful in their own right, become wild works of beauty.


My Art

Time to Get Busy

Sometimes you just need to be like a bee and get busy doing your work.

Find My Art…


Music I’ve Found

Lizzy McAlpine

When I heard “orange show speedway” come across my speakers, I was intrigued. I heard a little bit of Billie Eilish in there, and some storytelling like Noah Kahan.

The more I listened, I also heard some Taylor Swift, but in a unique way.

It’s quite the mix of goodness.


My Dorky Song

Summer is the Greatest

The other day, in my car, I was pondering the seasons. It occurred to me that summer is the greatest season.



One More Thing…

The 12-Year-Old in Me…

… finds farts funny. Even funnier to me is seeing a bear fart and seem to enjoy it.

Thank you Vermont Fish & Wildlife!


Thanks always for your interest!

See you next week!
