A Poem & A Painting: Crossing Ahead
Nov 28 2016 ·0The end of the year and the holiday season is officially upon us. Time seems to speed up between Thanksgiving and New Year’s ~ much like a train barreling down the tracks. I will try to do my best to enjoy this season with grace and gratitude, stopping to recognize everything from simple pleasures to the greatest blessings. One of the reasons I picked this painting for today was because in addition to being an actual railroad crossing, I see it as symbolizing crossing over into the Christmas season ~ and also the signal pole is reminiscent of a candy cane 😉 .

Nov 21 2016 ·0Here we are at Thanksgiving week! Things have been hectic around here lately, with client projects, business projects, and personal projects 🙂 . I’m grateful for all of it of course! I am also grateful for the chance to slow down and enjoy time with family and friends on Thanksgiving. This year has brought so many blessings and I am so grateful…

A Poem & A Painting: Cozy Corner
Nov 14 2016 ·0Slowly but surely my home is coming together after being turned upside down thanks to unplanned renovations due to water damage. I have been working hard (thank goodness for my dear friend and installer Paul!) and I can see the light at the end of the tunnel! It’s hard to believe that Thanksgiving is next week ~ fingers crossed, I think I’ll be ready to welcome guests into my home!

A Poem & A Painting: In Progress
Nov 07 2016 ·0Now that November is here it seems the sprint to the end of the year and the holidays is in full swing. I have been painting like crazy getting ready for a Girls Just Wanna Paint art show. We have an exhibition opening reception on November 30th, 6-8pm at the South Shore Natural Science Center in Norwell. Meanwhile, I am juggling several Interior Design projects including several changes in my own home. And yes, I am hosting a Thanksgiving dinner for 10(!). Wish me luck getting everything completed on time!
