"A day without painting, or at least thinking of painting, is like a day without breathing." - unknown

WooHoo!!!!! Today, I finally had a day in the studio.  It's been awhile and it really does feel good to 'breathe' again!  The big show that I had been working on is up and rollin' at Edgewood Orchard Galleries in Door County.  The opening reception was Saturday night and there were LOTS of people, great comments on the artwork AND quite a few red dots, too...THANK YOU EVERYONE!  Thank you to those that surprised me at the opening (my sista's, and many friends that came from all over) it was a beautiful evening.

So, today, after getting all other items settled and under control (you know, the normal things like laundry, dog, puppy, etc), I got into the studio but I didn't just dive into a painting..I spent a glorious little bit of important time..sipping my tea (new tea from Q Tea, Premium Tea House in Green Bay), listening to music (Nicholas Gunn today), reading through my journals, reflecting on the beautiful landscape surrounding me, AND THEN I GOT TO WORK!

I am so thankful for the galleries that represent me, my collectors and my friends and family who help me every inch of the way....enjoy your day!
