Back on the mainland

I’m back on the mainland after a lovely 10 day Hawaiian vacation with my darling husband, Dave. We had such a relaxing time and Hawaii always puts us on the “aloha” mood. We spent five days on The Big Island in Kona and then 5 days on Kauai. Living in Phoenix, we have direct flights [...]

Catching up

Whew! I bet you thought I had been eaten by my new easel… Well, no. Not at all. I actually have just been focused on art, continuing to clean out my junk that I don’t use, and busy with friends. Here’s the update: On Friday, Angie and I went to the Thunderbird Art & Wine [...]

Big happenings in the studio

Today, though no art was completed, there was, indeed some exciting things happening. I met the UPS man at the door when he brought a 28 pound box to my door. It was my long-awaited Best Lobo Easel. I had originally seen this easel on Sarah Blank’s blog. I’m so excited about this easel because [...]

Updates, fun, and a meme

She didn’t need angioplasty or a stent. It is wonderful news! Thanks to all for your fabulous support and well-wishes. Second, I found the memory card from the weekend with [...]

Home again!

I’m so glad to be home. As much as I always love seeing my niece, the travel was really hard on me. But it was worth it. There are very few people I’d do this quick trip for! Eliana was having her 6th birthday party this past weekend. We went to see her and to [...]

Laptop protection; collage sheets; Manic Monday announcement!

Hi there! I know. I’ve left you hanging. I didn’t post after my day out with Angie. But Angie did such a great job of describing our day, I couldn’t have done a better job and, well, I figured I’d like to her blog so you could see our day. To check it out, look [...]

Relaxing day

Today I decided to put aside the paints and the gel medium and pens in favor of beading. I have a project I’ve wanted to finish since Art Unraveled for a friend, and I thought that with Angie coming over, it would be a good day to do it and to get it in the [...]
