December show

I'm so grateful for all the support of local friends and family from this year's Holiday Artisan Show.  It went so well that we hope to do it again next year!  Connie Krehbiel (stained glass) and Tricia Springer (jewelry) joined me and made some really beautiful pieces just for this event.  We had everything from bronze bracelets to swan paintings to glass butterflies.  A special THANK YOU to all who came!

weekend images

My weekend in images include...

1&2. my brilliantly beautiful English roses I've been dreaming of for months

(practically a steal at 70% off) 

3. purpley and pinkish hued stained glass from a local artist- now hanging in my kitchen window (kind of matches the colors of my roses!)

4. our kitchen with a new light and new window art (painting the ceiling is next)

5. the start of a bathroom makeover

6. three new projects in the studio- Ulia, whales, peonies

7&8. studio inspiration boards include bright and playful colors next to neutrals- a nice balance.

The temperature has dropped a bit this morning thanks to a nice thunderstorm this weekend which means I'll be spending some time outside today.  Then, it's back to the studio for painting, packaging prints, sending emails, and doing laundry- all the essentials before my next show.  Hope your week is off to a great start!

(Go team USA!  I am loooooving the Olympics and losing so much sleep.)
