Nope...I did not abandon my blog...but I did neglect it for a bit, hence the cobwebs....but I have been making art...every day...

Art at home with sleepy cats...art while Aunt Nancy makes stuffed peppers...art in the car in route to Orlando...art in my PJ's beside a good friend...art by an oversized pup...art by the pool in Tampa...art while I am on hall duty....

Let's play catch up...here's my art from October 3-17th;

And here is a quick re-cap on my latest ARTastic adventures...

I finished up a commissioned painting for a high school friend and delivered it to Tampa.

She wanted a painting based on the following quote;

“Life isn't about waiting for the storm to pass...It's about learning to dance in the rain.”
-Vivian Greene

Before I delivered the painting(s) I walked all over downtown Tampa at sunrise taking photos of it and with it...just 'cause.  

Then I found out about a cool 'Day of the Dead-themed' group art show (perfect, right?) ...submitted and had two pieces accepted into the show!  The opening was last night and it was great!  I revamped my pink boots that I had embellished with handmade skulls and tons of jewels for my Nashville trip back in the Spring...then layered some necklaces and wired in some additional polymer clay skulls and just like that- I was ready for the show!  Special thanks to my husband, my friend Stacy and my new colleague Brent and his beautiful family for coming out to show their support! Gracias!

...and the most recent art shenanigans...me...going to bed at 2am...waking up ay 5am.  I am talking, 'EYES OPEN, BOLT OUTTA BED' waking up.  On my mind?  Angels.  Pink angels...Doing an #AngelDrop on a local Breast Cancer Walk in West Palm....Trying to talk sense into my self and go back to sleep for forty minutes...giving up, getting up and finishing up eleven pieces in a side 'PINKtober' series I had been working on...driving to my girl Sof's house...giving her the art...and leaving it up to her to take it to the walk with her.

And then going back to sleep.  

...there are other happenings, more behind the scenes stuff that I am working on...trying to get my work out there...

But more on that later- now I am caught up on my blog, goodbye cobwebs, and spiders- eeek!
