Ok. Well obviously I fell off the proverbial bog wall in April. But I am here again and doing some updating including Gallery posts - YAY!
I've mostly been tinkering and dreaming about all of the art I would like to make but then something shiny (or dirty as with housework) distracts me and I'm helplessly lost in my sea of thoughts and priorities. Sigh. The days I do seem to break away from the voices (just kidding) I escape to my private little art room (studio) upstairs.
This is my happy time. I have paints and brushes, magazines, books, and patterns. Lots of empty canvas, papers, wooden objects and mixed media just waiting for me to let loose and color outside the lines. My 2 doggies and 2 meezers love to hang out with me in my studio!
During the summer I didn't paint much. I did teach my first adult class which was a lot of fun. I made a few small artsy pieces for the Madison Arts Councils "Amore' Arts" dinner and fundraiser. I attended the "HOOTERS" Painted Bra event for breast cancer awareness, attended a paint class, sketched and generally hid from the heat and humidity.
I just became a member of the Huntsville Art Council and look forward to meeting other artists and artsy people, AND I would like to have a workshop out of my house with some friends (anyone want to have a paint day?) and make some holiday items. My favorite part of fall and winter holidays is presenting a loved one with a handmade gift. The holidays are just around the corner and already full of events and travel.
OK enough blogging for today...Have a wonderful day and thanks for stopping by!
