Hi everyone, STILL working on new art. I will be posting less frequently for just a bit, as I finish up and add to my online shop on REDBUBBLE. Thank you for all of your continued likes, follows and comments, and your patience! It is greatly appreciated. :-) :-)

into the garden - summers end
This is the third in a series of paintings that illuminate the transformative beauty of the natural world. To visually express how total immersion into the deep colors of gardens and wild spaces can create a profound sense of peace; restore wonder; and generate calm in an increasingly chaotic world.

GUARDIAN MONSTER ALPHABET POSTER
What the heck is a Guardian Monster?
I am so glad you asked. Perhaps you've heard of guardian angels -- those lovely, winged beings who guide and protect you? Well, when the job requires a specialized "monster point of view", these eager fellows step up! They may not be as attractive as their more famous counterparts, but they are very loyal and work hard on your behalf. Most of the time. They do have a wee tendency to get their feelings hurt if they are not feeling appreciated. And yes, they have been known to play a practical joke now and again, just to amuse themselves, BUT, for the most part, they are quite reliable and will be there when you need them.

A word of caution: I have not yet met any guardian monster whom one might call pretty. They are not. In fact some can be downright ugly. Depending on their underlying natures and current mood, they might also appear grouchy, whiney, bad-tempered or exhibit any number of not-so-nice personalities. That is not their fault -- they were born that way. So, if you are looking for pretty, fairy-like, always-smiling, ever-friendly types of beings, this is most definitely not the poster for you. These fellows, despite their diminutive stature, mean business. They were built to handle stress, anger, fear, all kinds of unpleasant feelings, and they look like it!

Set against a golden graduated background, a series of stacked blocks, with a strange assortment of monsters standing or sitting on them. Some are sleeping, some are glaring, most are smiling (in a monster kind of way). Each is holding his/her favorite letter of the alphabet.

The Mysterious Monster March: WATCHING
Illustration from a children's picture book that I am working on.

"He watches as the three monsters join others in a long line.
He can hear them rumbling and grumbling,
hooting and howling as they slowly march past."

To read some of the pages from the story, please visit: https://gretchenkdeahl.com/gallery/?mgc_58=72/mysterious-monster-march I'd love to hear your comments or feedback! :-)

The Mysterious Monster March: WATCHING Deep within a sunlit forest, the newly hatched baby monster watches the growing line of marching monsters from a cautious distance. It is standing quietly on the roots of an ancient tree, surrounded by flowering vegetation. In its hand, it holds its security blanket, err... leaf. Watching it, is a new friend, a green dragonfly.

The Peaceful Garden With eyes closed in peaceful meditation, a white cat considers the nature of life.

A curious owl watches nearby and wishes that he would ask his companion about its enigmatic smile. NOTE: This description created especially for my lovely blind friend, Georgiana. :-)

INNER MONSTERS
Inner Monsters don't necessarily look like "real" monsters. They are part of that constant chatter going on in the background of our own minds, shaping our view of the world. They can appear in a variety of forms, from human, animal, monster-like, even as plants! Most of us... ahem... keep our inner beasties tucked "safely" in the closet, hoping they won't decide to reveal themselves at inopportune times, causing all manner of embarrassing moments, like sudden extreme shyness, unexplained crying jags, overwhelming crankiness, or laughing out loud for no apparent reason, among others. Sound familiar?
The solution is (drum roll please...) to MEET your inner monsters, SEEK to understand them, EMBRACE them as yours, and then LEARN about yourself through them. Bring them out of your personal inner-verse and set them free!

Gorgeous Monsters & Their Pets
Welcome to my new interview series. I am the official human spokesperson for the Guardian Monster Guild, editor of the "Monster Times & Review" and author of the glamorous tell-all book, "What Monsters Want". These are hard-won credentials that I have worked tirelessly to obtain. As an ordinary human being, entering the realm of Monsterdom requires a rigorous determination, and an ego that can survive all manner of taunts, threats and indignation. I have endured countless nips, pokes and licks from numerous monsters whose intent, it seems, was to provoke me into giving up. I have proved them wrong! NOTE: This latest set of interviews on monster pets is for human eyes only and includes interviews with a select group from the Gorgeous Monsters Society. (This is the name they give themselves.) Here we discuss their feelings of unabashed adoration for their beloved pets as well as their care and feeding.

Meet Mrs. Nitig of the Altmorpha tribe & her pet, Beethia, a Blue Piconia.
Each (limited edition) purchase of the NFT Artwork includes Unlockable Content:
- A high resolution image for personal use.
- A PDF of the full humorous interview with the Individual Monster and its Pet(s)

In a stark brownish room, in front of a wallpaper decorated with symbols, sits a rather unusual, disgruntled pinecone-shaped creature on a Chenille upholstered bench. Grasped in one of its multiple claws, a broken piece of blue yarn. This explains the mildly distressed expression on its face, with is barely hidden within the cone. Underneath the chair, the full skein safely resides, away from its occupants ire. You cannot hear it, but it is growling without humor. I highly recommend staying far away, for the time being. :-)

Go Deep to Find Your Bliss.
Life can often feel chaotic. Unbalanced. Stressful.
Try and see that it is just on the surface.
Stop frantically treading water just to stay afloat amidst the craziness.
Instead, choose to go deep.
Deep down, where the restless tides abate.
Deep within, where inner calm resides.
Where bliss can be found.

Baby Monsters: Monsters have babies too.
Baby monsters are even harder to find than the elusive "baby" pigeon. Very few folks can say that they've seen them, let alone created their portraits. I have been lucky. As you might imagine, monster parents can be a bit protective. Mothers in particular. They consider us (humans) more than a bit strange and potentially dangerous. It took most of my free time, lots of monster "treats" and carefully followed Monster Etiquette to befriend just a few of them. Even then, I felt a bit nervous and on edge as I made sketches of their most beloved offspring. It is always a good idea to remind oneself that monsters are ultimately unpredictable creatures, and should be given proper respect at all times.

This teeny, weeny baby is about the size of a large acorn. I found her around twilight, huddled on the forest floor, hiding amongst the fallen leaves and acorns, waiting for her mom to return with dinner. I kept my distance while I hastily made her portrait, knowing that she was somewhere close by. The last thing I wanted to do was make this sweet baby anxious.

#monster #monsteroftheweek
Purplish dusk deep in the woods, a tiny baby monster -- the size of a large walnut, with delicate scales of pink, gold and light blue, is nestled in a bed of leaves and acorns. Head, arms and legs are wrapped tightly around itself as it waits nervously for its mother to arrive with dinner. Large eyes peer from its face, surrounded by floppy ears and tiny claws.

Bashful Monster in a Teacup
Humans aren't the only ones who enjoy a spot of tea now and again. Little monsters have been know to slip quietly into kitchens when no one is around and sneak a sip or two of freshly brewed sweetness. Alas, some of these tiny creatures may become so enamored with the tea, that they sip themselves silly and fall into a state of euphoria, causing all manner of behavior.
