My Art
ARTsy wednesday
last week when i was sick as can be and could only maneuver between the bed and the couch, i was trying to get as much rest as possible but also feeling extremely anxious and guilty that a new year had begun and that i had done nothing creative yet
so i decided to grab the box of embroidery yarn that we have had for years and start stitching over the small acrylic paintings i had recently done
it was an easy and clean way to be in bed but to be doing something at the same time
the process of stitching, mending, joining together and building on what is already there came accidentally but it’s exactly how twenty twenty was supposed to start for me
on a personal level and on a creative level

she did so well last year
hope she does even better this year

ARTsy wednesday
been slowly adding to my collection of acrylic portraits
i think twenty nineteen will go down as the year when i painted the most faces and that makes me feel happy and accomplished

ARTsy wednesday
well, i bought a pack of eight small canvases and i said i was going to paint a small collection of acrylic portraits and i did it!
i know it may not seem like a lot but as most of you must know yourselves, time is a luxury these days
i compromised my morning walk/run in order to paint but it was totally worth it!
it felt wonderful to paint every day and to be able to fill a canvas with something
i may buy another pack of eight canvases and keep going….
happy ARTsy wednesday friends!
around here
temperatures changed drastically this week
it was in the low forties in the mornings (and almost all day yesterday) and it’s in the thirties right now (it’s a little after six in the morning)
it’s like we went from summer straight to winter (let’s not talk about how it already snowed in west virginia)
but this crazy fast change in weather won’t stay
true autumn weather is in the forecast and i am looking forward to it
hope you guys are enjoying the change of season where you are
happy friday friends!
early morning walks and preferred architecture. clean, modern, brick free

Lily’s amazing elephant
all the green babies will soon need to come inside but i am putting it off as much as i can because this space will look sad and empty without them
looks and moods
around here
this week we were all a little off trying to fight whatever little cold was trying to get us
we were all a little slower, a little achy and a little sniffly
but, we pushed on through and kept going with our regular routine
looking forward to the weekend so we can just take it easy and get some extra sleep
happy friday friends!
last friday’s happy hour with my favorite girl
our hibiscus keep on blooming and it always makes me so happy
obsessed with being a contortionist
we took Lily to the circus and not only did she dress the part but she found her second family
i took my things to the sunday market and sold a bunch of stuff
i also brought home a new pitcher (it was free)
orange season
panama city beach memories. so good!
miami dog who always finds the sunny spots
i started painting with acrylics this week. felt so freeing!

ARTsy wednesday
wow! friends, the last artsy wednesday post was… well, june of this year but, the one before that was may of twenty eighteen!
do you remember long ago when they were a weekly thing?
anyway, it was rainy and gloomy yesterday so i decided to stay in pajamas and doodle a little
it had been a very very long time and it felt great once i got passed the nervous stage of trying to remember how to draw again
it always feels good to turn a blank piece of paper/canvas into something
happy ARTsy wednesday friends!
