I pretty much haven’t left my studio for the last 10 hours. Im preparing for a show that I’m hanging tomorrow morning and I think that I had to have walked at least a mile today while pacing all over this room!
Still healing. It hasn’t proved easy.
Today, Raine and Ezmah joined me. It was good for all of us to get some quiet, still air, after our busy weekend.
Delicate little details of a small girls’ formal gown spotted through a downtown window.
These colors caught my eye. They seemed to pop on this gray day.
Rocking chair symmetry and an unlit open sign. It’s cold and raining outside tonight.
Life is beautiful….even with these things. I hope that each of you are having a productive and happy Wednesday.
A strange plant in a foreign land.
I forced myself to walk today…and I found these nice blue lights because of it!
Power lines and gray skies.
Another beautiful day. It was a quick walk that I had to force myself to take. We are expecting friends over tonight and I still need to make pizza dough and prepare appetizers! I’m glad I did though.
My dear friend Natalie got me the 2012 leah duncan calendar! I’m elated! I’m so lucky to have such incredible people in my life that know how to tug on my heart strings.
I’m blown away at how incredible it feels here in the midst of January! Cloudy days enliven me.
I shared my walk today with my good friends Natalie, Elly, sweet baby Nona, and Ezmah Jane. Excellent company.
Pretty little details on this 1950′s era railing.
By the tracks.
Finally….I’ve had a sudden burst of inspiration. I love when this happens. It seems to be the best side of me and I don’t want to leave the studio when it happens. I have three shows just around the corner and I have been worried that I wouldn’t have anything new. As usual though, if I have a little pressure and a deadline approaching, I perform at my best. Here are the dates and locations of my upcoming shows:
I have a reception on February 4th from 10-noon at Ozark Natural Foods
March-April my work will be on display at NWACC (location TBA)
July is my large show with John L. Newman of The University of Arkansas at the Arts Center of the Ozarks.
Through an antique store window. The weather is phenomenal today.
A sweet delight in the midst of January.
A brisk evening walk downtown. It was cold, dark, and lonely…and I liked it.
It’s Friday the 13th and we told ghost stories on our evening walk. I truly have an incredible little family.
A cold January day. I didn’t last long.
blue and green.
