Thankful Thursday

Feel Good- Do Good

worktable-wordless Wednesday

I am busy in the studio creating new work...but thought I'd share:



in the works

My slowly bubbling brain is currently working on a few ideas,

hence the MIA status of me on my own blog...

I found this old pic of me and compared it to a current image and thought it was funny that I still am the same person, just in a bigger body.

I know I can harness that zeal, I just need to tap into it far more often....there is a cookie involved, maybe that is the key.

One of the many things I am working on, is figuring out how to un-stretch myself so thin...

I need to be of a more substantial thickness.

I am finding that being creative and also analytical is a very hard swing to ride.

 All the grown up responsibilities are currently weighing me down and although I am well aware that they are necessary yuckies, I still need to do them. So I have stopped fighting that fight and simply laid out a plan to tackle them all and free myself slowly from the taffy.

I think I have an entire arm free now...so it is only a matter of time before I get the other one free and saw off my legs!

Soon or so very soon, I will be posting new work and new events!

I just know it

Wordless Wednesday/Leap Day

I bought myself flowers last week and they are slowly fading...

I thought I would capture their last moments

I love- love

Thankful Thursday

It is thankful Thursday today, and I am thankful for lots today.

Today I am reminded how much I am loved: seen in little gestures

A text from a friend, telling me about an art opportunity

A clean teacup placed on the counter next to a full kettle for my morning cuppa

a lap filled with a warm purring kitty

a borrowed lens, that lets me play with light in a new way

and an afternoon of quiet to slowly contemplate my work

Happy Thankful Thursday

Down for the count....

So Hubby was sick earlier this week, now it is my turn....I am feeling less then at full speed so I have been watching a bunch of movies!
Being sick on the weekends seem to be how I roll, which really sucks because it is also when I am suppose to be working in the studio. It requires all my focus and energies and being sick drains all those elements and simply has me sitting her trying not to beat myself up over not working!
it is a no win situation.....

In the last 24hours I have

I watched the whole first season of Downton Abbey last night (thanks to movie streaming)

Today I watched the first episode of Mad Men wanting to get into that, but all I got was incredibly frustrated at how sexist it was...I blame it on the cold...zero patience.

Then two documentaries

DMT the spirit molecule

and then

and Note by Note about making Steinway pianos

I have also napped a bit and ate some veggie sushi thanks to hubby

Ugh colds suck...
