a little corner

"Bon Nuit, My Sweet"…It opens Friday November 14th.
For all of you in LA I would love to see you there.
I will be showing with Karen Locke, Jerome Prieur {I saw some of his pieces when I was dropping off and his line work is beyond amazing - the details - wow} & Thea Mohr Saks. I am excited to be showing alongside these artists.

Francesca one of the 3bayBchicks tagged me for 15 things I am not afraid to admit. I figured I'd write about getting ready for this show.

1. I have been painting during nap times & at night after the little one goes down for bed.

2. I could not have done it without the Boy, he has kept me on track & honest.
Sometimes I really did not like him for it, but that was usually when he was right.

3. I am a really big fan of the oxide {red & violet} and cobalt {blue & green} colors.

4. Looking back I am not sure how I did it all, but I guess when you look at the house you can see what fell through the cracks, there is a major cleaning coming soon.

5. My email is getting out of control.

6. Feeding time with the little one was a great time to let the ideas jump around in my head like a bunch of popcorn.

7. At the end of it all I painted 18 pieces in total. 13 that you can find with Cella & 2 that sold in Charmingwall's tiny BIG top show. 3 were finished, then scrapped.

8. The first couple pieces feel like they were painted ages ago.

9. I sort of can't believe that I managed.

10. I am really proud of the work I produced.

12. Cella Gallery is beyond wonderful. I love those girls.

13. I am excited to see how the show is going to be in the gallery space.

14. While I was pregnant I didn't even want to lift a pencil, much less draw anything. It was like a creative void, but I did create a pretty spectacular little boy, so I take that back, it was a massively creative time.

15. The Boy and I found the gallery through our stomachs, there is a great hotdog place right next door that a friend recommended. We went into the gallery after and fell in love with the space.
