It was on my goal list for 2011, but I never got around to it. This was in part because I was too scared, and also because other things came up and I found it easy to put off. Finally, I said enough is enough — I will start selling my work in 2012 whether […]

I read last week that the opening of the 2nd Twitter Art Exhibit was a great success (read the comments for updates). Forty-two cards were sold in the first two hours, raising $1450 for the Women’s Crisis Center. I’m not sure if my painting has sold or not, but I really hope someone takes it […]

I hope everybody has a prosperous and productive New Year. Because 2011 was so crazy for me and I have no idea what will happen in 2012, I’ve decided not to declare any set goals. I did write a list of things that I would like to accomplish, but I have no idea if any […]

2011 was a big year for me, although not so much on the art front. I did have goals for this year, but other things took up my energy. Even though things weren’t as productive as I’d like in terms of my artwork, I did have quite the year personally. I had quite a few deaths […]
I never really commemorated blog anniversaries before, but I was looking through my archives the other day and I realized that my blog is turning three today. I have been posting my work elsewhere online since 2005, but this is the first blog that I’ve really made “my own.” The above painting is another one […]

I’ve been toying with the idea of starting a monthly newsletter for a long time now, and I’ve finally decided to go ahead and do it. I’m calling it Delicate Paperwork, because my work is most often described as being “delicate” and I always thought of my artwork as my “paperwork.” It’s not going to […]
This past Saturday I took a three hour workshop, Learn to Use the Potter’s Wheel, at the Worcester Center for Crafts. It was something that was on my mental “bucket list” and I’m glad that I took the opportunity. I have always loved watching videos of pottery being made, and thought it would be a […]

This post outlines my 2011 Art Goals. I love this time of year when I can read other artist’s recaps and goals. If you have made such a post, please leave a comment below and I would love to check out yours. I have tons of ideas and I could easily make a list so […]

Last year I set myself some very basic goals (to make it easy to meet them). I wanted to put in more hours in the studio and declutter and get rid of stuff. I am happy to report that I have been successful on both counts. I did spend a lot more time on my […]

Here is a photo of some Moo MiniCards that I ordered recently. I have never purchased anything from them before, but I have seen examples (Roz wrote a nice review). I wanted something to hand out with my web address and artwork on it, and I thought these were more fun than full size business […]
