Artistic Tuesday
Last night I went to an artist panel hosted by the local creative arts association that I just joined. The topic was basically how we write ant talk about art, and how we *should* be and what ways are helpful to engage the public. We had a journalist, historian, and a director from a gallery…

New-ish-ness
If you’re reading this on the blog right now (and chances are, you are), you’ve probably noticed a major color change. I missed having a custom theme ( had one once, a long long time ago) so I thought I’d make a custom background for my current theme, so it’s still a bit more me,…

Done.
Finished my project yesterday. I was thinking about making more similar pieces, but Alex really liked the two other blue fairy pictures I had up, and liked having different shades of blue, so I decided to keep them there instead. More time to work on illustrating 😉 I think I might draw them all on…

In the Works
The other day I went and reorganized the location of a lot of my paintings, and decided I wanted to make a more coherent/designy living room piece to replace the 16×20 fairies and 11×14 still life that are currently sitting above the tv.

Art Journaling: I want to be
I want to be the eccentric 60 year old with sapphire hair and kind eyes. When I’m 50 I want to not care I will be me I will learn life’s lessons and love freely. I want to be a vibrant 30 and 40 year old living adventurously. I want to be a graceful 20…

Thought.
Today I was listening to a 4 part youtube series by Ira Glass that was just….REALLY good for anyone doing *anything* creative. Most of it had to do with story telling, which was great as it pertains to my screenwriting, but something else he said – something about bridging the gap, really struck home. I’d…

Stuff
I’ve got a cough and have been really tired the last few days, so as much as I’ve been wanting to write and post, I haven’t been able to think about anything to say. But I’ve had a song stuck in my head all day and thought that might be interesting I’m going to try…
