THE DAY AFTER

phew> 

Last night I did the Farmer's Market..  which is great fun!  The set up and breakdown is a lot of work and yesterday I was still exhausted from our big holiday weekend.  We had a BBQ for 25 friends at the house..

Feeling my age today :)  But last night, pulling into the house, I just couldn't think of lifting another thing, so I left all in the back of the car and went to bed!!!  So this morning, I will quickly unload all this.  My new car

is doing great for hauling.  It is a little smaller than the Jimmy, but still does a grand job. 

I did manage to do more art yesterday morning before market. 

Here is  "Kitchen Goddess"

And I titled this one, "Blackbird Girl".  Her license plate is a 1936 Kansas plate and her feet are old casters.

I really love this one.

I plan to do some work to day, but also have promised myself a nap.

Because  NOW I deserve it!

BIRD GIRL

Let's do it all over again.  I love selling art and then having to make MORE!!!  yes!!!!

This girl will be going over to the art center to fill in a vacancy made by a sale.  I used to feel a little sad when I sold some art.  When you invest your soul into a piece, it's a little tug at your heart strings to see your creation go.  Then you remind yourself it's such an honor when someone is touched enough by your art that they are willing to pay for it.  So you smile and know it means you now can create more.  Always cheers me immensely.  I need to make more more more.  Three spaces to fill at the center, and then want to build up a nice inventory for the Tuesday Farmer's Markets in town. 

NOW

to my work..

and a sunshine day filled with a blue sky that makes you want to fly high and free.

Wild Women Art Show

Woke up this morning, scheduled to hang my art at the Wild Women Art Show at 10:30  at our local

Glenwood Springs Center for the Arts, and decided to do one more art doll to round out my total number

of 6!  So I quickly got to work in my jammies, and Angel Heart was born.  Her face is a temperature gauge with some lovely old screen wings, rusty and faded from it's white paint.  Her legs are cut from an old extention cord..(thanks Dan).  I wanted her to have yellow legs, and could only find this old extention cord in the garage, so had to call my husband to see if I could cut off a length.  It is so great to have an understanding partner!!  She is holding a wooden heart in her hands.

  Along with the dogs and cats, the wall made a nice showing after I hung them later this morning.

I always think it will be a fast hour to hang a few pieces, and it turns into 3 hour job.

Already have orders for the dogs..  :) think these are going to be my summer project!  Yippiee!!!

NOW for work orders!  and another Yippiee!!!
