{*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.
