A Poem & A Painting: Des Marionettes
Oct 03 2016 ·0It was a gray and rainy weekend in New England. Luckily we are in need of the rain and I was in need of some downtime for catching up on paperwork, painting, and getting ready for my Art Show at the Boston Design Center this Thursday(!).
This week’s painting was created for the October Girls Just Wanna Paint challenge of Stripes. Once again, I love how everyone interprets the theme ~ take a peek for yourself at this month’s entries here.
A Poem & A Painting: Red Roses in Emily’s Kitchen
Jul 25 2016 ·0My daughter Emily has a lovely vintage inspired mason jar set in her kitchen. While I was visiting the mason jar vases were filled with single red rose stems.

Pamela’s Posh Gift Guide: For Friends
Dec 13 2013 ·0I love to gift my friends with something that is both unique and selected with their interests and personalities in mind. Sometimes this takes quite a bit of thought. I will admit that there have been times that I’ve been a bit stumped and thought that someone on my list “has everything” ~ but that is just not true! There is always a thoughtful present that will warm a friend’s heart and bring a smile to their face. I hope you find some inspiration from this week’s Posh Gift Guide for Friends…
Girls Just Want To Paint Art Show at Thayer Academy
Dec 03 2013 ·0Our BIG art showing opening was November 21 at Thayer Academy in Braintree. This art show was a labor of love and took a year of preparation! Not only were we painting but also reserving the space, planning the marketing materials and then working together to make it happen ~ yes, 12 women!
Here are some of the photos of the “hanging” (of the artwork, of course!), before pictures of the gallery as well as some of the event photos. The exhibit is open to the public through December 18, 8am- 3pm Mon.-Fri. The gallery is located in the Southworth Library Building at Thayer Academy, please stop by to see over 120 works of art that are for sale and make perfect for Holiday gifts!
