{*update…I photographed this and it still is a little lighter, but not so blown out from the scan}

what I have been up to…{besides eating lots of cranberry sauce, I looovve cranberry sauce}

*stretched & gessoed five canvases

*started a three panel commission

*finished a way long over due commissioned trade

*working on some illustrations for a writer

*realized my favorite time of day right now is between two & five, when the light makes the park across the street unbelievably beautiful

*decided I really love pears, for some reason I was always quite dismissive about pears, but now with baby liking natural things I gave pears another whirl and I love them all. 

*did jen's word. defenestrate {to throw someone or something out a window}…wanted to really get away from what is 'normal' to me, what I automatically go to, and the circles kept coming up. and the colors feel a little like the cold winters of nyc that I am sort of missing.

*working on getting my 'store' uploaded for my "getting ready for the baby & new year art sale"

*I have just fallen in love with this photographer {via swissmiss} 

here is another little piece I did just for the funs of it.

we love my new & growing belly
 

just a little list & some shout outs…

got a wonderful house from steph…I adore it

got a lovely package from jenifer, who is going to be a felt club this saturday {and her new site just went live!}

I have some prints for sale at charming wall a new art shop in nyc…their site isn't quite completed, but they are the coolest people {sign up for their mailing list}

I almost love them as much as I love littlebird gallery who is having a great little sale on saturday as well for the children's clothing lines of bluebird & black rabbit 

we just moved to another apartment, same building, bigger space…now we have a room to hold the baby & my studio

I am feeling a million times better and the boy and I are in awe of my new belly, it's like a science experiment, except I am the experiment

once I have organized a bit more I should have some work to show, 'cause ideas are coming at me like crazy 

I promise I wont be so long in between posts next time & that I will have some art to show!!
