Mini Moo's!

My mini moo cards arrived today! They're beautiful. I'm excited to send them out into the world. One little step at a time I'm getting to where I want to be. Exhale.

Geli Prints

I played around with my new geli printing plate for the first time. I'm still in the first stages of experimentation but I can see so many possibilities for layering. Glee!

Papergirl Vancouver

Just dropped off a little stack of my art prints for the Papergirl Vancouver art project. So excited to participate in this redefinition of street art combining Art, Philanthropy, and Bicycles.

I love the idea behind this project. It's about building community through sharing - "the art of giving art." Beautiful. It's so true to how things ought to be.

Here's how it works: Artists from around the world donate their work for an exhibition (August 13th, 2013 at the Roundhouse Community Centre from 6-9pm), and afterwards the artwork is rolled up and delivered by cyclists around metro-Vancouver to anyone they happen upon. So if you're out and about on August 24th you might be one of these lucky unsuspecting strangers, and get some new sassy art for your walls! Neat eh.

Hope to see you at the opening reception/ exhibition! And fingers crossed you will be one of the lucky receivers of an art gift...

on hibernation

 

Quiet hibernation. It's been a couple of weeks. I withdrew and took time for myself and my family, and it felt just right. I'm emerging again, but slowly and mindfully. The flurry of emails and social media notifications waiting for me will hold as I recharge so I can see myself clearly again.

I've been in the studio, where my heart lives. Here is my most recent outpouring; a work in progress that makes my heart sing.

 

[ hibernating and creating in my studio, this is what is emerging ]

with love,

Choir of Birds

I'm enjoying waking up to sunlight streaming in and a choir of birds chirping in our backyard. Amidst the chaos of being mama today I sketched a few lovely birds, each with a little ornate decoration. 

Welcome summer,
