It was a small Thanksgiving this year. I didn't get to see my family but we did make it to John's sisters house. So a small gathering, but a good one. With the best décor around, with special help from our niece of course!

Not pictured, Raffaele (our 'surprise guest') and my BIL, Justin
Picture
Gemma and I went on a leaf hunt and I used the leaves we found in my daily art.
Picture
The next day Gemma wanted to make a 'leaf girl like Aunt Jenny'...so I made MY leaf lady based on HER design!

My best girl in Colorado keeps me inspired!  Whether it is a random package in the mail, a funny meme or thoughtful text...or even sending me art ideas!
Picture
...she sent me a pic of this little shawl that we can't afford...so I made it out of leaves!
Picture
Oh, and I mailed her some of the pieces from last month so she could search for 'fabric' in the Colorado mountains!

Staycation with our 'bubs'

11/22/2020

We did a thing.  A 'staycation' in downtown Wilmington with our 'bubble'.  You know, literally the ONLY folks you see during a pandemic...
Picture
My favorite thing was the deck on the roof. I love this view of downtown.
Picture
Mornings...up by myself walking by the river...random leaf naps...and celebrating one of the bubs bdays
Picture
...another walk by the river Sunday morning...
Picture
I also randomly stopped at Port City Java for coffee...and ended up initiating a conversation about showing my art!

Orlando trial run

11/16/2020

We wanted to see if we could make a trip to Orlando and back in one REGUALR weekend.  Like, no extra day off.

It was a success! 
Picture
Neither of us is great at driving at night, but we made it to Savannah and even had time to get some slices at Vinnie's.
Picture
Next morning, straight to Universal...then to Mather's in their downtime to maintain or level of social distancing...which is literally just US. We don't like folks within 12 feet of us- forget 6! We managed to stay away from everyone!
Picture
Sunday we were just going to stop by Epcot for a snack when they opened and then get on the road but...that didn't happen. We did make it back to NC before 11pm, so we considered that a win!

November 10th was a REALLY good day!!

...it started with the new Nasco catalog in my mailbox at school-with TWO pieces by my LWHS art students!! Yasssss!

Picture
Top left is Nehemie's drawing. It won the top award in the Continuum Young Master's local art show, placed at Scholastics and is now in the Nasco catalog (that's her holding her Continuum ribbon)...and Shacira's paper dress was also featured in the Nasco catalog! This piece also placed at Scholastics- and it was featured in a student show at the Norton Museum of art. (that's her picture underneath with the dress form) Oh, and BOTH girls scored 5's on their AP 3D portfolios! So proud of them!


...and then...it was off to Bald Head Island...​

Picture
It wasn't as cold (or as busy!) as when we went to BHI in September, so it was perfect for sitting out on the deck of the ferry, you still have to wear your mask, but kinda keeps your face warm when the winds pick up.
Picture
I love the beaches in Wilmington but that BHI view just hits different.
Picture
Did I bring my leaves and art supplies? You betcha!

 ...and that first night, a familiar face on the local news...

Picture

Yup, it's ME! Ha!

I received a message on my Facebook art account from Frances Weller from WECT about a feature on my Donors Choose grant.  So I got up SUPER early the next morning, recorded a 30 second video and sent it to her.

The station aired the video on the 6 o'clock news.  My Donors Choose project was funded less that five-ten minutes after the segment aired!  I also received additional funding, so DC contacted me to create another project- which I did (mats and items for nice art displays) Yay!
Picture


...and of course, art. 
There is ALWAYS art!

Picture
...working on my daily pieces, either first thing in the morning and looking at the ocean...or late at night lookin' at these fools

So far so good...I found a spot for some colorful leaves in Kure beach...oh, and the sass? I already had that.
Picture
Still exploring Wilmington...finally made it for brunch at the Blockade Runner and we loved it- reminded us of south Florida.
