And no. She doesn't like spiders..
My Friends:
I’ve not done a lot of portraits, so here’s something a little different from me. Hope you like it.
Things here have been pretty busy – as usual. After a near miss and a road-raging asswipe that wanted to play games with me (on I-70), I’ve installed a dash-cam system in the Caravan. It’s a really good one with crystal clear videos – front, rear, and even inside. And it wasn’t all that expensive. 169 bucks from Amazon.
In other news… I’ve been doing a lot of work on the inside of the house – all those “little things” that one puts off until “later..” I guess it’s "later" now… LOL
Part of the reason I’m so off-and-on here lately is because I’ve been spending a good amount of time – probably 75 – 85 % of it – doing a buttload of research on a number of things. Looking for another place to live mostly, and it can be discouraging with the ludicrous prices for houses, these days. I’m looking into ways to work the finances so we can get another place (in a better area), and still be able to eat.
We both have Social Security, and certainly aren’t missing any meals. Medicare takes care of a good 80% or so of the medical issues – which thankfully are improving. But I’m also spending a LOT of time looking into ways to supplement that income – and that’s taking priority over a lot of time and effort. Does that mean I won’t be posting the TNA story, or anything else? No, it does not. As a matter of fact, I have page 48 all planned out, and it will be posted sometime soon.
I’ve also decided to close my merch store on Pixels / Fine Art America. It’s been up for several years, and my total income in that time has been $0.00. And their so-called Customer “service” is one of the most incompetent I’ve ever encountered. You can check out the story on my Blog, linked below. I still have Redbubble, and am looking into some other possibilities.
As always, thank you so much for stopping by, checking out my humble efforts, and leaving a comment if you so desire.
Stay creative!

just beware of Trump taking away medicare and most likely SS benefits, do not trust him on what seniors will not pay SS taxes, won't need to since he will take them away. glad i only live in apartment complex, only dusting and general vacuuming going on. just highly disturbing sloppy neighbors. hope you find the place you are seeking, thought you had a special place for senior living locked up. and your portrait is well detailed and gorgeous Rod. take care.

Those "senior living" apartments are waaaaaay out of sight, price-wise! Around here they START at $1200.00 a month! My sister-in-law had one after her husband (Jo's brother) passed away. She ended up moving to a cheaper non-senior apartment. We can get a house for way less a month than that - still pricey, but I could keep my shop equipment and set up in the basement. Got a lot of ideas brewing in what's left of my mind!

The portrait is very well done I love her eyes The cost of living in the States has like every where else went sky high Over here at least we have free medical care but a lot of people are getting private medical care the cost of food has went sky high a lot of the big super markets have somewhere to eat but like if you don't take care the cost of the goods in the cart will jump up while you eat

Splendid beauty

Fantastic work here Rod. She's beautiful. Superb rendering and she has a real becoming expression.
Good luck on the search and getting your house in order. Hopefully selling the house will give you the bulk of the capital necessary to get a new house.

Great looking portrait Rod! It always seems that those much needed chores around the house will always require more time than one has personally available. I always wondered just how effective that Pixels / Fine Art web site was in selling art in the present economy. I would think that selling art on that site has suffered due to the difficult financial times that many are facing today.
Best wishes in the following days and months ahead for you my friend, say hello to the TNA girl squad! :-)

I hear you. Real life can't give us a break. and now Dumpy is back like a toothache, the more one tries to ignore him to see if he goes away, the more you can't. I just got my girls back; I hope I can keep them for a long time.

very nice smile - warm & inviting...
in terms of house hunting, yea, it is all rather daunting, esp. when you just KNOW the housing market is going to burst, and trying to find the right time to sell and the right time to buy is kinda overwhelming, imo... once you find a place, if you find a place, do a little bit of research into reverse mortgages - someone i know took out a reverse mortgage loan about 3 months ago, and though i don't know all the ins/outs of it, he has it worked out so he has no actual mortgage payment for the next 1-3 years...
the best to you & Jo :))

Best of luck to you in your house hunt!! Lovely lass!

I know the feeling, Rod. I try to avoid politics in my work, but that being said, I'm personally scared as a result of this political climate, but we gotta stay strong and vigilant. If Trump wins, my cancer care goes bye bye, even though I'm still in remission and recovering.
Excellent work, BTW. I miss V4, but I'm have fun with G8F.

Beautiful portrait and I really like the color. Sweet smile and lovely eyes. Great job!

You want a house, and to eat at the same time? Sheesh, pick one. A pound of ground beef used to be around four or five dollars, now it's twelve dollars.

I remember Ilona created the lovely Arachne Character Rod. She looks like an angel here. You have my empathy as I am also looking at somewhere new to stay. (Downsizing)

Excellent

Paying $1840 a month for our little townhouse here and don't see it getting cheaper anytime soon :( No point moving either cause ours is the cheap on in the area.
Killer portrait and loving those eyes :)
