A Few New Pieces

You know how we always talk about how crazy the Holiday season is?

Well - as a mom of four, I beg to argue that late May/June are just as crazy, if not more so!



This week alone we have had 2 major family events, choir concerts, piano recitals and more.

But I wouldn't trade it for anything -

I love the music events.

I love seeing the progress my kids have made in their endeavors.

I love being together as a family.

It is near perfection.

I mean - isn't family what it is all about?

Sharing pancakes and laughs after the choir concert.

And in between, when I have a little time - I have worked in the studio.

The drawback to all of this is - I have a lot of work to complete - and not much time to do it.

So there has been some multi-tasking happening.

And sometimes that is ok . . .

And sometimes, it is not . . .

I am really happy with the way this 12 x 12 canvas turned out. I love the colors and the textures.

I love the bird - different from my normal simple birds.

She seems to have a bit more of an attitude -

but after my husband shot the photo of the piece, I realized that Yes . . .it is true -

I left out an entire word.

REALLY???

Hmmmm . . .

You would think I would have learned my lesson by now.

Do not . . .repeat DO NOT attempt to talk, watch movies or otherwise engage in attention splitting activities while writing words or phrases.

Oh well - I can repair the silliness.

Maybe someday I will learn my lesson.

Then again . . .maybe not.
