January 15, 2010

Fast forward...it's early Sunday morning, January 24, and I came to my computer to see what was going on in the universe, and ended up at my blog. That is when my universe tilted! I said on January 15th that with a new decade I was hoping for change and adventure and so far nothing was happening and 2009 was going to repeat its self. I had two comments on that post, the first was some one kind enough to say the year was still young and things would change with a little faith. Thank you. The second comment, the universe tilter, (is that a real word?) was James Kennedy, author of The Order of Odd Fish. HUH? Check my book selection, the title is right there! Somehow, he found ME and said he liked my collages and hoped I would submit some art to his fan art show. WHAT? I was skeptical and thought who's playing tricks on me? I googled James Kennedy and found that it was James Kennedy - no tricks. We made a connection and I quickly read the book again for the fifth time, well, if it's a excellent book, I read it several times. You know of my Twilight obsession, right? You should read his book, too, it's fantastic and the adventure of Jo LaRouche, not your average thirteen year old who has the power to destory Eldritch City that is located in the belly of a very large fish. Well, Odd Fish is part of the title, go for it, I won't give the whole story away. You should never walk past the young adult section in your favorite bookstore, it is filled with incredile reading, move out of your comfort zone, it's 2010!!! I submitted two collages and want to share them with all my art friends and relatives clamouring for me to post the collages after reading my Face Book wall. Their excitement about this universe tilting good fortune of mine is delightful, thanks . Look Mom, I am a star in the universe!

Hello

We are 15 days into the new year and nothing new is happening to me. I said I was going to blog more, then the computer completely self destructed and two after that I realized that I did not back up my picasa and.........sounds like 2009 to me all over again.

Happy New Year

Rejoice! 2009 is just a memory and 2010 is here and holds new challenges, inspirations and adventures. I am ready to start the next decade of my life and my art. It is said that every seven years one changes in slight ways, I believe this to be true for the decades as well. The unknown is before all of us - how to live, how to change, how to improve and how to accept it all with good graces. I toyed with the idea of taking a break from my blog - what did I have to say that was new, what art could I display that was fresh? I won't know unless I am on my blog, talking and showing my art. For the new decade I don't want to run away from life, I want to embrace it and one way is to devote some time to my place here, out in the open, in front of all to see. I feel myself changing everyday, for better or worse, with all the doubts I have about where I am going and where I will end up. I stopped making resolutions a long time ago, I always had the same old ones and never kept them anyway. So I have 'challenged' myself to commit to my place here instead. Only time will tell if I have clever things to speak of and good or bad art to show. I challenge you to the same, remember the new year means out with the old, and in with the new. Good Luck to you and me, my friends.

Merry Twilight and a Happy New Moon

I am wishing all my art friends a happy, safe and blessed holiday season. Enjoy being surrounded by family and friends and to all a cup of good cheer. May your new year be filled with creativity and inspiration. I will see you all in twenty ten until then do something creative everyday.
