Where Women Create

I picked up a copy of

the latest

Where Women Create.

Look, my favorite cheerleaders.

I say that because, as an artist.

We need an arsenal of friends like these two.

(And yes I am going to call myself an artist,

but I believe we all are in one way or the other.)

Jen O'Conner

and

Jo Packham

 The two most vocal advocates I 

know of creativity. They are 

a dynamic duo.

Valuable allies, supporter and necessary shoulders

to cry on, and high 5'ers to celebrate with.

Anyone who is fortunate to cross paths

we these two dynamos is lucky indeed.

And look.

  A large spread on our Spring ArtGirls

Road Show in Saratoga.

May 19th and 20th.

At Schuyler pond

Here is my little picture.

Very cool planter...

And you will just have to purchase the

magazine to see all the rest of the inspiring

content.  I love looking at what other people

create, think and feel.  A snapshot of what

I consider my tribe.  Creativity breeds creativity.

So go catch a glimpse and be inspired.

And hope to see you there.

Busy in the Studio

I have been busy in the studio today.

My sister threaten to take a picture

of my mess. 

 After the photo shoot with

 Jo.  It is back to my normal 

messy self.

These are shadow boxes.

  And this is a tiny little bunny.

About 3".

That's all.  So far.

Balancing act

It has been a busy week, hence the...No Post.

Also waiting for inspiration.

I found it. here http://maddieonthings.com/

First found here.http://www.swiss-miss.com/

You know the old found on blog, look for original source

kind of thing.  Anyway  this led me to Maddie the hound dog.

My life has been a balancing act of late

Lots going on....but it is winding down.

Jo is here...http://www.wherewomencreate.com/

We are filming Hutch Studio today.

I am excited about that.

But also I just really like her.

She is genuine, enthusiastic

and appreciative.  It is going to be

a fun day.  

Between work, family, art,

cooking, and taking care of yourself

it all seems a little to much sometimes.

I am learning to let go.  Not trying to

be perfect in everything and work myself

into a frenzy. 

How about you?

How do you balance it all?
