Hello Lovlies and Lovers and Lovettes!
This is me.
I am a woman obsessed right now.
I'm in love with my studio. I'm in love with art. I'm in love with my work. I keep telling myself I need to get out and stretch my legs in the glory of Spring's sun but I honestly can not tear myself away from this room. The funny thing is, I've absolutely nothing to show you; this last week has been all about experimentation, trial and error, learning by the seat of my pants and listening to the same five albums on repeat turned all the way up. I've got wet paint on three canvases, an unholy mess of leather dyes (I've discovered a technique that yields the most incredible dusky turquoise and I want to make approximately ten thousand pieces ALL colored the same), the pickle pot turned on and a new lens for Pierre. I'm rather horrifically behind on emails and I've promised BC that I would eat lunch before 4:00 pm today.
So I'm checking in to say Happy Friday and ask if this week has been full of cabana boys and mimosas or nubby toques and afternoon whiskey. Well?
CHEERIO!

OH MY GOSH! P.S. Are these not the most fantabulous earrings ever? The amount of talent and inspiration this lady glows with does me in every time.

Godspeed and happy creating...
I'm excited to see the turquoise treats:)
Well good afternoon Miss Dove... I love the smell of paint and if I were there I'd be sniffing! Wishing you a great weekend. I am trapped in my lab and in between work I run in and check one thing or another or another. Glad to see you. I don't know what you said at the end, but it sounded pretty funny. xoxo
Enchante', I hope it has stopped raining and that you have a great weekend too. Now, I am leaving again. xx
So happy you are well and inspired.
Its been a week of flip flops worn with warm and comfy coats.
xo
Enchanté - And to you as well miss!
MLJ - Paint Sniffer?!?!? heehee, well you'd have PLENTY to snuff and sniff around here, what with the oils and the spray paint (I had a spray party with some new bits of furniture I found at at garage sale). ESCAPE THE LAB!
Twig - Isn't that the very best West Coast combo?
I am doffing a giant 'old dad sweater, jeans and flip flops...w/ a giant yerba mate so I can stay up late enough to see Angelique Kidjo tonite!....woot!...must find a clean shirt so as not to embarrass myself...:)
