Winter Solstice 2018
December 11, 2018
Quickie reflection on the Art Fair Season. Sales at New Brighton were not so hot, but I learned a great deal about packing up the car, creating a display, and appropriate containers! I just don’t know if my offerings were necessarily a ‘fit’ for this particular show. The artists/craftspeople I met were very talented and … More Winter Solstice 2018
Circle of Inspiration
November 5, 2018
It is always a blast being a part of the buzz at a special NKB weekend like Art Attack or Art-a-Whirl!.

Ok. Where did the summer go? Well, to be fair, my son got married so though I was busy in the studio, I was also very focused on a summer of LOVE!

My First Crochet Pattern
November 20, 2017
Last year I made crocheted snowflakes ornaments for friends and family. I found many wonderful free patterns online and made quite a variety (no 2 flakes are the same, right?). This year I wanted to make crochet or knit ornaments again. I thought Christmas trees might be nice. I found a very lovely-looking pattern but … More My First Crochet Pattern
New Studio: My Life Redefined
September 9, 2017
Not sure what I’m exploring in this post – reinvigorating one’s creativity? reinventing oneself? Maybe just simply a way to organize my thoughts as I try to make a new life in a new place. … More New Studio: My Life Redefined
Life’s Distractions
October 14, 2016
What happened to the summer? to the spring, for that matter? Last time I wrote here was in March. Well, I’ve come to realize that one’s health can be one of the biggest distractions to creativity. … More Life’s Distractions
