Today marks the end of a very productive week...more to come. Just love this song, from one of my favorite musicals RENT.

Interview with a local news station





Taking art shows down, selling art



And making a good start to my Think Outside the Box Creative workshop at AIN, the clients are great!



This is the first level of an ongoing project, next week we do Saint
Pattys Day!



Continuing to downsize, 20 plus canvases are now hung throughout the house



Mom and Pop are home safe and sound from their winter escape...Life be good!

Contemplating my trip to Spain as well as getting back on the bike, "Bernice" as the weather starts to warm up.

The highlight of my week was the new Save A Lot store that just opened in my neighborhood. It's the little things that are the best...

Ok need to start my PT and paint! Today I'm working on several things including a new piece 48x60 called Real Life, will post soon.

Tonight is something a little different, DQ Dinner with Laura, my main Bean!

If you're gonna start sometime, why not now

Something I've needed for a while. It came and went and now I'm ready for the week. Much ahead.
Lunch at Sonny Brians...can never have too many ribs



A visit to my friends memorial at local resurant



A biillboard I pass every day, Rick is lookin out for me



A plunger I found on the floor at Walmart....made me think of Maggie.



Nothing special, just lot's of roaming around and taking pics. Taking it easy after not feeling week last week.

If you're gonna stat sometime, why not now

Downsizing, reorganizing,,,things for March. I have hung 15 canvases, some come complete, others that will be finished soon.

I sold a painting this weekend at Artisans Collective.

I'm Possible was one of the first big pieces I painted when I got back to Dallas. A 48x60 painting

This is a pic of the painting as it dried in my home last year.



Over 70 layers. The piece became a challenge, starting as Impossible, because painting something this big was more than a challenge, it was a bitch, falling into the canvas. Falling as I turned the canvas around. As I got closer to turning the corner on this piece, I saw the potential in new paintings and new techniques.

I hung in m home for 2 months before saying hello to the public and now it's found a new home. I couldn't be happier.

As an artist I paint so I can share. As I make piles this month, I make room for the next stage, the next chapter.

If you're going to start sometime, why not now

Over 600 performers, 6 hours of entertaining and we all raised $17,000 for relief in Haiti

Stay tuned!

You know, if there was ever a question in my mind that, I'm doing what I need to do, last night was a great reminder.

My Art reception at Urban Dog Coffee, was great! A mix of friends, new admirers, good wine and tasty pastries, made for a night, that reminded me of my artshows at my old place on Anita. Comfortable, Fun and Interesting.

The event was catered by, Samantha Rush...

I provided my favorite wine and art and Urban Dog Coffee,provide a nice inviting venue.

By far the most popular painting was my 36x48, called Vogue



The colors pops out at you..many people would look at the piece, but, couldn't see the girls head until they focused on the lips and went outwards. Telling her story was fun. Me trying, to create something that exuded confidence. From the colors, to the mixed media approach. My new work centers around where I am right now.

Someone said they wished I had my willpower. I just shrugged and said you do. I'm no different than anyone else. We all have our stories. Each of us doesn't know what we can handle, until we get to that point. We each have a choice. We each do what we can do.

I understand the well meaning thoughts. I now want to move from where I was, to where I am. I don't have a problem anymore of asking for help when I need it. I understand the importance of good friends. I understand the meaning of taking care of myself.

Last night was the culmination of help from several friends. Just showing up as a person, as an artist, is an ongoing lesson for myself. With the remaining shows I have this year and the projects along the way will help create a continued balance in my life.

To everyone who continues to believe in me, Thank You
