Changing the world one little arty bit at a time…because we can. And it’s FUN! Well sweetums, it’s WEDNEDSAY! Ta-ta…And you know what THAT means, right? It’s time to share our Random Acts of Art. Now if you’re new here and not familier with Random Acts of Art Wednesday (RAAW), the rules are simple. Make a…
It’s been almost a year since I brewed a cup of tea in Mama’s house, the cottage that’s been serving as my temporary studio ever since she died. I’d bring my own tea when I came down to paint. And when I finished it I’d walk up the hill to my house and make another…
Little studio in the big woods is coming along. Look at that. Mr. Spouse had a busy weekend. Got to love that man. Oh, I do…imagine that! Got the windows in. Skylights in a week or two when the roof happens. The start of the wiring. Now I have to figure out the lay of the…
I was talking with sister Marjorie Ellen today. On the phone. Her life path took her to Norway after art school. Mine took me to California. Sisters by birth, sisters of the heart and yet for most of our adult lives, sisters by telecommunications. That’s just the way it is. Fortunately I’ve found an uber…
Got my feet up on the coffee table. Computer on the lap. Dog by my side. One of ‘em anyway. One dog. One side. I left the camera in the studio, no new photos tonight. I could walk on down and fetch it but then I’d get eaten by a bear. Which means you still…
Ahhhh…blueberries! Fresh, plump, ripe, oozing-sweet-yummy-lusciousness BLUEBERRIES!!! What’s not to love? Especially when they’re the first fresh ones of the season, the season being somewhere else of course because even though it’s been unseasonably WARM this winter, at least around here, it ain’t summer yet. Look at these beauties! Winter oranges, berry goodness and walnut bits….
Worked all day doing technical computer stuff. Which means I sat on my butt. And stuffed my face with salty things. I got up from time to time like they say you’re supposed to. You know, stretch. Run a mile. Walk ten feet to the kitchen counter and snag more Cheezits. Well, one outta three…
WHOO-HOO!!! Today is the first, the very first ev-ah…. RANDOM ACTS OF ART WEDNESDAY. Or, to keep things simple, RAAW! If this is your first visit to Arty Life you can read about it here. The rest of you gather round. I’ve been spreading the luvvvvv around town all week. Here’s the proof. This one…
Well my sweetums, if you read yesterday’s poor excuse of a post you will recall I PROMISED you pictures today. And you shall have them! First are the eagerly awaited evidence of studio construction. This is the back wall, the one opposite the door. The only plywood still to go up is the triangle above…
I’m sorry. So sorry. Please accept my aplooooooogy…. Sunday night/Monday morning. You know what that means….TaTa…It’s time for Show & Tell. Time for construction photos of The New. The Amaaaaaazing. The Soon To Be Finished STUDIO GRANDE II! Except, umm…not today. (Hit it, Brenda!) The weather was fine. Mr. Spouse made progress. All the outside…
