Good Vibes for a Girl Called "Rah"

 

This is an 11" x 14" watercolor original painting for a lovely lady recently diagnosed with cervical cancer and her beau, Wade.

The painting has been given to the couple for hopes of cheering her up and hopefully her brother's will have a Silent Auction to raise more monies for her and her care. They do have a GoFundMe page at GoFundMe

I will donate ten (10) original Amy S. Petrik watercolor illustrations for Rah's possible Silent Auction, should her family decide to have one locally in Sioux Falls, SD, USA.

On a side note, May 23, 2024, I purchased a 2021 Ford Escape Titanium from Mr. Wade at AutoLand Autos in Sioux Falls, South Dakota, after I had my first car accident since receiving my learner's permit at the age of 14. My former Escape was totalled. 

Neighborly Adoration

Meet my neighbor Jacob w/his true love. We had the most spiritual chat in the parking lot tonight. The 3 if us are huge thrifters...we usually see each other at our fav thrift in Tea, South Dakota. This is an 11"x14" watercolor painting. I used clear glitter, markers I bought of TEMU and watercolor paints.

Introducing Siblings: Aster & Jayse

Meet siblings Aster (17) and Jayse (soon to be 9)  ....  

Both paintings are 11"x14" hand-drawn, and hand-painted by yours truly. I used watercolor markers, acrylic markers, watercolor paints, and black Sharpies to draw these on April 10, 2024 in Sioux Falls, South Dakota.  All rights reserved.

Zandbroz Variety is THE Place to Be

Introducing Ms. Jamie of Zandbroz Variety

Downtown Sioux Falls, South Dakota

It was her lucky day when I popped into her shop 

and I found Miss Etta and her at the register. 

Spread kindness like the wind is blowing 100mph.

This is a 9"x12" original watercolor painting. I used chalkboard markers, watercolor paints, crayons and watercolor paper to create her liking. All rights reserved 2024.

Meet Miss Etta

 

This is Miss Etta.

Amazing human walking amongst us. Saw her walking to and from "somewhere," daily in front of the building I work at on Phillips in downtown Sioux Falls, South Dakota. She has a super groovy vibe about her and when you see someone like that, I really want to meet them. The other day, I spent my lunch hour at my favorite store in Sioux Falls: Zandbroz Variety. Literally walked into the store and there she was in all her glory. I am almost positive, I freaked her out by gushing. But she agreed to letting me draw/paint her liking. And... she loved my creation. 

Here is an awesome Human Kindness Tip: You see someone with a certain groove about them, men or women or a doggo or a fascinating kid... Tell them. People do not compliment others at all. Ever. Life is so short and so many people wander around about life... and it's easy and simple to pay a sincere compliment to any one/thing breathing on Planet Earth.
