Last night we were without power for FIVE hours…oh summer in Miami is so much fun with these storms. Anyhow–I was completely unproductive …unless you count singing Michael McDonald outloud with your husband and friend productive. Your vote. All I can say is “Ain’t no mountain high enough, ain’t no vallery low enough, ain’t no…

Last Night’s Work
There are various animals that I adore…most are fairy tale animals, such as our friend the Frog Prince. I have several Frog Prince figurines in my office at home…and I have been meaning to paint him. So this summer he made the list. I think I’ll keep the color combo and make his crown metallic….
it has begun…
So tonight I started all the official sketching for summer painting. I also finalized the list of what I am going to paint…and friends, it’s going to be a BUSY couple of months for this one. I have decided that in July I am going to focus on the gifts and commissioned paintings…of which there…
Clothes Swap
Last night I fell asleep at 10:00 pm without blogging for the day…I was tie-tie (Dubonics). Anyhow—so today I have been prepping for my clothes swap with friends. I have been doing this with museum folk–but my friends fell in love with the idea, so tonight I am hosting 8 of my closest girlfriends and…

Art for everyone
One of the things I am most proud of are my prices. I think thats everyone deserves original art in their home, and that is why my paintings start at $100 and usually only go up to around $400. It always depends on the size. So if you liked my stuff before, I hope these…
