Sunshine...


It's sunny and 60 something and although I planned to show these three new pieces in detail that will have to wait until Monday cause I just need to get out in that lovely-warm-your-chilled-rain-weary-bones-sun right this minute. I cleaned my studio earlier in week (after the big sparkely mess known as the silver leaf incident) and spent lots of time painting. I found myself embracing the grey drizzle outside and cranked up Wes Montgomery, Oliver Nelson and Miles Davis on my ipod. In those moments where the music and the grey came together the color, unpredictability and beauty of Spring found it's way into my work. In other news I turn 44 on Sunday! We are planning to spend the afternoon in the city sharing lots of yummy food here and walking around exploring public sculptures or visiting a museum depending on the weather. I wish you a weekend filled with good food, love, and exploration too. See you Monday!
