www.placerarts.org

"our little sisters"... some more cardboard art...

turned into a hanger!

if you'd like to read the short article about little ol' me, press the address at the beginning of this post, scroll down to the right hand corner, pressing on my little painting, then as you turn the pages of the online magazine ;(...you can enlarge the cover artist write up...which i thought quite lovely after a man interviewed me from Placer Arts! i am ever so GRATEFUL and only a teensy, eensy bit pleased as pie!

HAVE A GRAND WEEKEND MY FRIENDS, whether the weather is whatever it is! :))

HAPPY PAINTINGS!!!

 i matted and started to frame this...but for now, i thought i'd leave it as is, awaiting it's frame...i really liked the black, which always surprises me as black is last with me

 a couple of up close shots...on intuitive paintings...

 up in the very left hand corner, (in that first photo in it's entirety) i am still mulling over whether or not to put-- JOE'S DINER in NEON BLUE ??? :))

 this is a playful intuitive painting, but it no longer looks like this, AT ALL:)

it's looking like a landscape at the moment :)

 and these last 2 shots, i couldn't resist, to give us all a friday chuckle...

darn...my afterschool kids needed new markers!!! uh huh, how fun!!!

HAPPY WEEKEND TO YOU ALL!!!

LITTLE PEOPLE'S VOICES

 Every day at my job (afterschool director)

i listen...

 often times, it's all one needs to do...close mouth, open ears!

 they have so very much to say...more than just words...

 to be understood, to clarify meanings, to matter, to belong...

 above all the busy, noise and clatter, simply...

TO BE TRULY HEARD!

(she went into my etsy today)

Hoping your Thursday is a great prelude to Friday!

XOXO
