opening buzz

I’m on a bit of a high as I write this post. Apparently seeing your work hung among other very talented artists by a professional curator raises a boat load of endorphins. Maybe there should be an after-party for gallery openings. I’m so giddy! Sunday was a lovely sunshiny day and I walked to the garage […]

Winter has arrived

We had our first snow storm of the year yesterday. I rode the train from an outing and enjoyed the stress-free travel while marveling at the storm. The neighborhood transforms so nicely in snow. Santa should come back 🙂 This Sunday is the Evanston Art Center’s Biennial Members’ Exhibit opening. Per the newsletter: “Curated by […]

on my desk(s)

The past week was spent getting my house in order for 2012. Mopped floors, clean clothes and the new shower curtain smell make me feel quite accomplished!

Wrapping up the year

Everyone is meant  to fulfill their destiny on earth  in their own unique way I haven’t been able to keep up with Radvent in real time, but the posts address things I have thought through as I did write my responses. I also have touched upon some of these topics in my own musings over […]

Radvent: Creating (really fear-busting)

Create Radvent by Princess Lasertron

I sometimes forget that I am more creative than most. I had a professional Artwork Installer help me put frames up this month, and he was surprised he didn’t need to design the layout of the wall. A blend of my own and inspirational creations that are finally on my wall People can be so […]

Radvent: Wrapping

“If you look deep within, you will find a brilliant light. Too many, far too many, squint and turn away from the shine. Let your eyes adjust, and bathe in the radiance.” ~ unattributed Wow, after posting my “unwrapped” blog about Style, the Radvent I caught up on was Wrapping. It asks how you present […]
