Rockport Arts Fest
4th of July is one of my favorite holidays and that’s partially because you don’t have to participate in the fireworks to participate in the celebration. You can simply feel grateful about living in the USA. You can wear a red, white & blue t-shirt, you can have a party or read a book, you … Continue reading
Galveston Concierge
The beginning of each new day – what do you do with today? Do you plan it? Or, do you let it unfold? Or maybe a combination? I like structure and I like order but I also like serendipity that feels like cosmic elements are at play. I like the word play. So many of … Continue reading
May 2 & 3 – Galveston Island, Pier 21
It is the finale of my spring schedule and I’m returning to Texas for the new Bayfront Blues & Fine Arts Festival. The weather for the weekend looks fantastic! Pier 21 is the location and both Saturday & Sunday the event is from 10-6. I would love to see you again! As I am getting … Continue reading
Welcome 2026?
Here we are in a brand New Year! I’ve seen comments online, “How about we circle back to a gently used year, like 1994? Or, “Can we simply return this year?” (as if it were purchased on Amazon).No doubt the population is tired. There is nothing wrong with the year except so much of what … Continue reading
Saturdays are great days
Holy Tamole! What just happened here?! It’s been almost two years since I have created a post. I want to thank all the people who visit my website and browse older entries. My blog, previously full of updates, simply hasn’t made the list of things to do in the almost past two years – and … Continue reading
Maybe this direction is a gift
Sometimes life adds an adventure I didn’t anticipate and I’ve learned to listen up … to that voice inside that says, “Maybe this direction is a gift.” I heard the voice say that but, still, after an hour in line for my reserved car I could hear they were out of fuel cars and everyone … Continue reading
Cyanotype Sunrise bursts onto the scene
My writing is all but buried within my art these days, and has been for quite some time. Things I used to say in words I now put into my paintings and sometimes I talk about that and most of the time I don’t. I’ve been busy with my new Instagram; I say busy but … Continue reading
The light kaleidoscope of colors
Routines took a backstage. There was no normal in 2020 and in the unscheduled time that lent itself to the brief consolation of daydrinking; that was thankfully brief and not lasting and I had an intentional shift to the accomplishment of tasks. I wish I had kept a written list but I didn’t. My quickly … Continue reading
Definitely a backlog of updates but let’s start here, now
It took a month to settle back in after Birmingham. Five nights in Birmingham and it started to feel like I live there now. There were a number of highlights for the three day event. I turned 51 on April 22, Earth Day, the day of artist load in. There was hardly a birthday present … Continue reading
Rockport 2018 and the events preceding
The beginning of a day, the end of a day: both beautiful. Time out, time to look back …. now that the events have passed ….. because it was such a super special weekend, the entirety in a state of grace. The beginning: morning came, I was prepared; I thought I was prepared. Something larger … Continue reading
