this and that...





Hey stranger...how are you?
Things are rolling here as one car leaves today, one child and a husband leave on Monday (i'm still in denial about this part and will fill you in next week). Many books have been donated, a few furniture items have been sold (thank you craigslist...i love you) and a large quantity of empty boxes have taken up residence in the living room. I spent a little time in the studio yesterday and started on these two small block paintings. Normally I'm a fan of odd numbers of objects in my work but I'm still in the "this or that" mode I mentioned last week and so each block ended up with two objects rather than one or three and they play off each other as light and dark (go figure). I'm planning to work on these a bit more today and post them tomorrow (we'll see how that goes)....

ps: I also am thrilled to say that I finished up my pieces for ETA LA and am preparing to ship those off tomorrow!

I like the name of that show. Congratulations!

I'm that way about odd numbers too, but sometimes odd just doesn't fit...

Hang in there!

I have no clue what's happening in your world, but it sounds like there's lots of juggling, rearranging and shifting going on. No wonder you don't want to let anything odd in! :) Sending you happy vibes today!

thanks annri and liv...things are crazy but it's all good.
and you've both put it beautifully-sometimes odd just doesn't fit.

Best wishes for your show... looks like it's going to be great! Yipes, moving - it's always a scramble. Hope you can find some peaceful moments through it all.

Wish I could see the show. Do you get to attend the opening?

dearest beth...
just wanted you to know that you are in my heart.
i know juggling all those balls up in the air at once is bound to be stressful, but the beautiful thing about juggling and gravity is that what goes up must come down and one by one all your balls will land safely in your outstretched hand.
so happy you have your pieces off to the show.
wish i could be there to see them.
huge hugs to you beth.
