Art Art and More Art
Well, my crazy running around last week paid off. In addition to my work going up at the cafe at some point in the future, Blue Restaurant hung two of my paintings and six of my collages. Very exciting. No sales yet, but at least my work is out of the studio and in front of eyeballs. In addition, my little screenprinting experiment paid off, (thanks to this cheapo DIY screenprinting site.) I used $1 silk scarves from Goodwill and lo and behold, notecards with screen printed swallows!
(If you are interested in owning a set, please see my Etsy shop.)
I'm working on another series of mixed media paintings, based on the Elements (Earth, Air, Fire, Water; not the Periodic Table, sorry).
I also want to give props to my new Etsy friend, Artgoodies, who has some really cool block printed items and handmade books.
And that's all the news this week. We're still sick again here (no, that's not a typo). I blame all the snotnoses at the YMCA. So, it's comfort food and tea all around. Even Lily is in on the action—I have let her sip my mint tea a few times, so now when she sees me with a mug she says "tea. Mmmm. Some!" I swear, I want her to be one and a half (almost) forever.
