Winter is on it's way for sure. There is a nip in the air and snow on the mountain passes already.

I am still finishing up some gems that were just about done just before all of this craziness started. Turning out to be lots of fun seeing so many paintings come together so quickly.I'm almost caught up to them though and am really looking forward to starting some new ideas that have been brewing in my head. Watch for them!

Take care,

Marion Rose

Thank you all for your support in any way. My life has been full of love and joy every day.

Love,
Marion Rose

Here we are,early Sept. We are just now getting some of the typical hot sunshine you'd expect in early June. It pours in my huge window first thing in the morning and I get the golden glow in the evenings as it sets. My gang here is keeping my room full of fresh flowers, and the inspiration is fantastic. My joined-at-the-hip buddy Bente Hansen is here every day and is is magical to just be together to share thoughts and paint and play.

I have a stomach pump hooked up now but have the freedom to unhook myself and get up normal to go for a walk either out in the garden off the ward here, or we go down to the huge lobby and people-watch. Starbucks Chai lattee makes that a whole lot of fun too

So off I go. Have a great daytoo!

Staying In Touch

This particular post today is huge for me. My blog will be my newsletter now, where I can share my daily adventures, and we can interract in the comments with each other. It is meant for everyone - family, friends, clients, and anyone simply curious about me or my work.


To catch you all up, I have been living with colon cancer for 4 years now. Do I believe in miracles? ... you bet I do!. I am living one now. The latest incident which has had me in the hospital for 6 weeks is a turning point. I've chosen to be in the care of a wonderful hospice team that keeps me pain-free, in high spirits and feling very safe and secure when my body doesn't cooperate 100%.


I will spend each day making the best of opportunities that I do have. Right now I am able to leave on day passes to spend some time at home. The hospice has also let me set up my art supplies and paint in my room! Internet connections are bad at best though there, so I will have to blog whenever it works.

I have family and friends at my side daily, supporting me and silently tolerating my endless demands. It is hard on everyone to be so helpless. I accept every day, one at a time, as a blessing. Another chance to love, laugh and play with some color.


Every thoughtful comment I recieve on one of my various web pages gets read, and too often silently acknowledged. It is important to me that you all know that every single prayer has touched me.


Every thank you from me is also full of sincere love.


And for now, please accept this huge THANK YOU for taking this journey with me.
Marion Rose


PS: I believe That I should keep sales on hold for now until I've been able to get home more often and better organized.
