Where I've Been

Sunday, May 6, 2012
I've been away from the blog for some time now. But never away from living the artistic life.
After visiting here, I strung some beads . . .
Which are intended to be added to another round of Spirit Stix . . . but until then . . .
AND I've been cleaning the studio.
Organizing . . .
Straightening up . . . and finding the first painting I EVER painted among the stacks. Whenever I see that date of completion (Oct 2009), I can't believe how my life has changed in such a short time.
I've been sketching a bit and
Dabbling with works in progress.
I've been excavating found images like this horse from swirls of painted backgrounds.
And experimenting with colorful abstracts on paper.
I've witnessed my generous family gift scholarships to art students . . .
and dreaming of my own potential artistic education.
I've missed you. What's up in your artistic life? Won't you share it with me? I love hearing of what you dream and and of what you're doing.

What a great update Tracie! Love your hair like that. Always look forward to hearing what's next with you girlfriend! I'm always in the thick of it somehow. Too much to catch you up on here. You will have to visit my blog and nose around a bit I suppose. ;-)
