Busy busy busy.....but NO art :(
Nothing to show....no art...nothing whatsoever and I feel like crying... How many days have gone by and there has been no time for art??? Oh well, guess cleaning your house, grocery shopping and working makes sense as well but it is for sure not as much fun as... painting, cutting, gluing, distressing and finding fun vintage items online with NO copyrights. :) Enjoy the week ahead and plan on finding LOTS of more art in this blog later on this week. That is for sure...

I have completely fallen in love with circles and dots. They seem to find their way not only into my art but in my kitchen and bedroom as well. The bedding has polka dots and my coffee mug has red spots on it.... Circles seems to add depth to art and it sort of looks like they are falling down over the paper... Whatever they do they appear all over my life these days and I love it...

Spring is in the air...and in my ART
As I was writing in my blog on ZNE I realized how true that really is...that spring is in my art...
I can see the different seasons in my art...the colors, themes and images I pick.

Another perfect day (again)
Today is another perfect day....it really is. Spring has sprung and even though I went from pneumonia to allergies life is grand. They might be using a massive jackhammer next door, right underneath my studio (window where I usually listen to birds sing) 8 hours a day for the last week....but that is OK as well because today is another perfect day. I can still see the beautiful palm tree through the jackhammer dust and it makes me want to paint it....I can still hear the birds in between the poor man using the jackhammer (with no ear protection). Art is everywhere and it makes me HAPPY =^..^=
"I got mail" yesterday in my mailbox that is and the book on COLLAGE is lovely and I can't wait to use some of the ideas in my art. I have already tried a new way (for me) to create a nice textured background.....
This morning I attended a meeting with some art friends who all volunteer as Art Docents for "Meet the Masters". We go to different elementary schools in our school district teaching kids about some of our Art Masters...Van Gogh, O'Keeffe, Thiebaud, Rivera etc.etc.... I am always so inspired after meeting with these wonderful people and now have even more ideas for some great lessons. Thanks Betty :) if you read this.
That's it for now...today is a perfect day in so many ways and one of them is my blog...
