YAY!

saturday... which really doesn't mean a thing in terms of work. ;) art doesn't take breaks.

today i'm going out to the city to drop off the painting below and one of The Good Daughter portraits and a couple other things. fun! i always love gallery day!

and also... if you're in new york, HANG will have a booth at AAF. the shin-dig is may 6th - 9th. i won't be there but my paintings will be! yay! go see 'em if you can. artwork is always always always better in real life.

WOW!

wow. wow. wow.

all i can say is WOW!

i got invited to participate in the San Jose Institute for Contemporary Art's Mono-Marathon today! oh-my-lord! someone up there is definitely smiling down on me. what a huge honor. WOW!
AND, as if that wasn't good enough, my sweet ladies sold at AAF in New York yesterday. whoever you are, thank you so much! it's one of my favorite works and i adore it. you've encouraged me to keep at it and make this series shine as hard and bright as it possibly can. thank you for giving them a new home. :)

i am floating....

YAY!!!

oh, i had such a wonderful time yesterday! i got to the gallery a few hours early to mingle, drink wine, take my time getting comfortable and set up, and hopefully fight over some art. i walked away with a jessica niello for myself and an eric jacobsen for my sweetie. yay! both of which are completely gorgeous and are excellent editions to our budding art collection. and most importantly, both artists are serious, are wonderful with their craft, and make images that pull on my heart-strings. i also got to do an amazing art swap with mr. piero spadaro yesterday (wow!) and am busy re-arranging the art on my walls to make it the center of attention. thank you piero! :)

i took pictures but for some odd reason, my computer isn't letting me upload them. boooooo! maybe i need to re-install the program... which means i've got to track down the disk. :( i'll get around to that later and will post some pictures as soon as i get my technical difficulties worked out.

and in other wonderful, unexpected, and completely awe-striking news: my gallery is taking "Lineage" with them next month to the art fair in New York! YAY! it shipped out yesterday and i couldn't be more thrilled about my maids meeting a new audience. astounding! and i am endlessly grateful. my gallery is, and always has been, so supportive of the work i do and this is such an unexpected display of that support that i am left feeling completely honored. thank you so so so much, guys! thank you!
