My Goddaughter, Kat


While I am sharing this is Kat, my goddaughter, who is a student at Rhode School of Design in Providence, Rhode Island. The top left photo is the normal Kat, next to that is an art project she had to submitted even before school started, and front and center is Kat all dressed up to celebrate her birthday with school chums at a moustache party. I think they went bowling and everyone one of them wore moustaches they purchased at Target (this is just about Halloween.) The art project is a rendering of ancient art, I know that name but no idea how to spell it, anyway, the container is a metal tin shrine from ArtChix that she rusted and then painted in saintly looking gentleman. If you look closer the background says StarBucks and he is holding a cup of coffee!!! Such imagination. I am telling you this because while working on her masters at RISD, she just learned that she is an honor student for the first term. Straight A's. Am I proud? You know I am. Love you, Kat.

My Family


This is such a nice picture that I decided to share it. My Mom is on the left, then me, my sister, Deborah and my sweet husband Joey. I think it was taken when we treated my Mother to a birthday dinner in August. And I just now put those pictures on the computer. You know how that is, take lots of pictures and leave them in the camera. I believe that Walgreens has a great commerical about this!!! So now you can see those who love and support me each and every day, and the faces that I love to pieces.

Where Have I Been?


Fair question. Away! Recharging my creative spirit, my interests and my focus. It was time to step back and find myself among all the clutter of everyday. I have been reading, keeping an art journal, listening to music and enjoying simple pleasures that I made time for.

This is from a fortune cookie and one of the best I have ever cracked open -

to expect life to be tailored to our specifications is to invite frustration.

Enough said.
