"G" -ARTFULLY BLOGGED IN THE YEAR OF THE OX


I have been continuing the process of  "illuminated manuscripts"  and asemic writing with my copper work and acrylic mediums, found objects and paint and  have really been enjoying the process.  I have lots of ideas that will take me in many different directions. Hopefully, spare time will show up soon and visit for awhile.

In the meantime, this is the letter "G".





Loud ......Chinese drum roll please.......................................................................................................


I am thrilled to say that there are two articles in the beautiful new issue of Artful Blogging magazine that have my name in them. One, is about my work in particular and the other is about the "Blogstock" gathering that I hosted last summer with a fabulous group of talented artists and writers.  Somerset Studio does a wonderful job putting their publications together.  


Yesterday, I had the good fortune to head up to New York and celebrate the Chinese New Year with some great women. My friend Jerri was celebrating a birthday, blogger friends, Elizabeth(About New York) (birthday last week) , Isabel (A Room of One's Own) , Susanna (Susanna's Sketchbook) , Leslie (Snips and Snails and Puppy dog tails) and Marie (Lost Aussie On the Loose) (birthday today!!), who I just met for the first time yesterday. We had a grand time watching dragons dance, firecrackers go off, art supply shopping and a wonderful lunch.......and taking photos, of course!



Happy Year of the OX!!!!!
