"If I ever go looking for my heart's desire again, I won't look any further than my own backyard. Because if it isn't there, I never really lost it to begin with." - Dorothy Gale [Judy Garland] in The Wizard of Oz
A portion of the quote above was utilized for the title of today's featured artwork, "Further Than My Own Backyard" is a 12x16" Mixed Media on Paper completed in February 2026. The original artwork is available for sale at https://www.craigscanvases.com/shop/p/further-than-my-own-backyard
Please Note: This image may look familiar as we shared in about a month and a half ago with a post relating to it being in its work-in-progress state. At that time it was just pen-and-ink with watercolor washes defining the areas; but, has since been completed.
Artist's Statement / Backstory: In the January posting I noted, 'You'll be able to see this finished artwork with more watercolor, oil pastel, colored pencil, and/or marker!' Thankfully it is completed and on a day sooner, rather than later! The overall composition is the same; although, areas have been more well defined, values added, and the artwork completed with more watercolor, colored pencil, and marker. As I sat working on this piece, I was originally drawn to do something more yoga-based with 'heart center.' As I spent more time with it, I continued to feel pulled toward the Wizard of Oz which ultimately won out for the title instead! Quick Preview: We're not neglecting paying homage to yogas as yoga's going to be featured in a big way very soon; so, stay tuned!](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:v5m64ly2e37c6uhrukospoqd/bafkreib4h5s7eweys5gbjixkkuo6la2bn2y5be2aveclhy7jcxui2q2kjy)

Flopcast episode 720! We’re watching The Wizard of Oz. Not the one you know. The bizarre silent 1925 version. Why not. #wizardofoz #eso #esonetwork flopcast.net/720.html
Where troubles melt like lemon drops
Away above the chimney tops
That's where you'll find me . . .
IF ONLY.
But I'm grateful to Yip Harburg for those lyrics, for that little lift.

And intentionally passes by Mrs. Gulch’s house to cause trouble (complains when the scarecrow suggests she goes a different route home)
Yet somehow, Mrs. Gulch is the villain for being upset that this dog bit her while she was trying to save her cat

This might be a hot take, but Mrs. Gulch (The Wizard of Oz) is not a bad guy.
Dorothy admits that she lets Toto into Mrs. Gulch’s garden once or twice a week (repeated offender) 1/2

Yet again the #Taioseach reminds us that he is a character from the #WizardofOz…
“I strongly urge all parties to exercise restraint and to work to avoid that outcome,” he added, though he stopped short of outright condemning the US-Israeli attacks on Iran.
Wow, it's a DOUBLE win for #WizardOfOz at @Sphere this week! 🤩
We’ve just added a #PGA Innovation Award to the #VES win for Outstanding Visual Effects in a Special Venue Project.
Huge thanks to the entire crew who made it possible! 💫🌈
Kansas from The Wizard of Oz!
Because Kansas is persecuting Trans people by taking away their drivers license, I propose that we edit every single new photo and video of Kansas in "Sepia Tone" in protest!
Why? To reference "The Wizard of Oz" and mock how Hollywood color codes Mexico! #kansas #transrights #wizardofoz #protest
