Catching up – Gifts and Drawings
I’ve been quiet the past few days, but not because of my health. I’ve been focused on sewing and painting for a gift I created for my mother-in-law as a Mother’s Day gift. I’ve had to keep it under wraps, because my MIL reads my blog regularly (*waves to mom*)! It’s to the left. It’s [...]
Every Day in May #5
It’s May 5th – Day 5 of the Every Day in May challenge. For the first time in a while, I was feeling up to spending time in the studio today. I walked in and immediately decided I needed to paint. I had an urge to get messy! So, I drew the outline of a [...]
Passover and Auntie Fran’s Art Studio
Well, it’s been over a week since I last updated everyone on things here. I spent a week hosting my lovely niece, Eliana, and her parents (along with Flat Stanley!) here at Casa Saperstein. The spoons were spent early on but it was a lovely time filled with family, laughs, and new traditions. Eliana attends [...]
Creative despite vertigo
Well, I’m sorry to say that the vertigo has not yet subsided… I am hopeful that I can put aside my dear companion, the walker, some day soon, but until I’m feeling more certain on my feet, that won’t be happening. Better safe than a broken bone! I haven’t left the house since my treatment, [...]
More painting and Support A Place to Bark
I am still painting! The painting to the left is far from finished, but it’s moving along and I thought I’d share it. It feels good to be creative and to paint. I’ve got one more primed and ready, and a third drawn out. I’m on a roll and going with it. Tomorrow is my [...]
What a difference a day makes
Today I woke up this morning feeling SO much better! I’m a bit off balance, but I was finally able to move from my den to the studio. It was like a reunion with a long lost friend. Comfortable immediately, and filled with excitement. I completed the painting I showed you the other day and [...]
Creative This Week
As I mentioned in an earlier post, I have been painting and trying new things. To the left is the current state of the painting. It’s not done yet. It still needs some work and final touches, but I figured I’d show what I’ve been doing. It’s a creative process and it requires a lot [...]
September 10th already!
I can’t believe it’s been a week! I’ve been quiet and somewhat focused this past week. I needed to recuperate from the weekend in Bisbee. I’m getting there, but this will be a short entry. I’ve been revitalized by working on painting some large canvases. I’ve finished one of them. it’s to the left. In [...]
More paintings
Well, it took a while for me to be comfortable enough with these paintings to share them. And one, still, is not where I’d like it to be. I realized, however, that it’s been a while since I posted, so I thought I should share the art and let you all know I’m alive and [...]
Painting today
Today I had a quiet day to myself. I needed that. I needed to just sit in the studio, heat up coffee and leftovers, and spend most of my time up to my elbows (quite literally!) with paint. It had been a while since I had a day like this, and it was good to [...]
