No big news here...just playing with my dog. Lots of things percolating, but no soup yet.

52 weeks, week 7

I know this photo is out of focus, but I like it. I chose 3 faces this week you can see the others here.

Since WORLD BALL (my art show extravaganza), I have been struggling to find my footing. I think I found it and it is in Hockey skates! OH Yeah! Mr. Eleven started skating 4 months ago. I was worried I would fall and get hurt and screw up my art show, so I held back. I could just see my self in a full body cast at my opening, arg!

We are going to skate 3 days a week and then there is Hockey Camp. Kevin has been going for 2 months. I will give it a go, but, I want to get a bit better first. In any case, it is great exercise and fun.

I recall a conversation I had with one of my art advisers 100 years ago in grad school. He said the hardest part about being an artist is leaning to have a life as well as making your work. It is so true. Finding a balance when all you want/need to do is make stuff. There are times when you need to get out of the studio (or in my case garage or kitchen) and get into life, to recharge and to reconnect. It is time for me to do some non art things and replenish my well. I am going to keep on drawing/ visiting BeeMan Land, it is the season (Pollen is in the air). I am looking forward to a few months of gardening, skating and dare I say it, socializing. Yep the hermit is going to leave her cave....

Onward!

Frankenstein Friday

Super dog!

still sick...

gallons of tea with honey is helping...
The frustration of not being productive is driving me crazy!

I am trying to rest and get well. Looking at the computer for too long makes my brain ache....I, can't do much of anything. This mini project is keeping me sane. I cleaned and dismantled the bird feeders and am painting the metal parts red.
Arg!...getting sleepy again, time for a nap...

(onward in spirit only today)

52 weeks, week 6

The theme I came up with this week is, falling or flying... about half way through my photo shoot, Frankenstein showed up and grounded me! You can see the other week 6 and all of the self portraits so far: here.
The Big Irish Head and I are still not 100%. It is no fun being sick. It is hard to get traction when you feel like crap. But the sun is out! So are we falling or flying?...all I know is, the Chug is keeping us grounded.
onward!

Frankenstein Friday

This is perhaps my favorite Frankenstein photo ever!
..and here he is calm cool and collected, I would not hurt a fly!

A lovely weekend to all!
