Magdalena and Jose needed to get to their drop point before the pineapples got too ripe…

so they got in their trusty truck and headed out.

They went through some rough terrain

but made to their destination with time to spare!

Little vintage dolls
Adventure lies in their souls
Just give them some juice

Offbeat Pieces

I made a few pieces for my art show that were somewhat offbeat for me…

which could simply mean that they weren’t really religious in nature.

I’m told that expanding one’s repertoire never hurts!
(And every artist is allowed to use a baby head at least once, yes?)

Body of work shown
Five months leading to this end
Reviews made me soar

Thanks to everyone who made my art opening a huge success
last night!

Today is the day that I’ve been working towards since January when I got the call to be in the May art show at the Raven Cafe here in Prescott.

I’m exhausted and elated at the same time, but really, I’ve paced myself very well over the months…I mean, who doesn’t work right up until the last moment before a show?

Mr. E and I will be delivering 30 pieces to the Raven at 3:00 today for the opening this Thursday.

Working with my hands
Needed just like breathing air
Makes me right inside

What more is there to say…as I know all artists can relate, yes?

I was thrilled to take an old tobacco tin that others thought was too far gone, and cut up for art componants…some of which will be in next week’s show at the Raven Cafe in Prescott.

Vintage toy treasures
Infused with hours of delight
Journeys start anew

IMG_8962

I was at the swap meet last weekend and I came upon a
gentleman who was selling
miniature vintage cars and trucks.
So I bought a few…okay…a lot of them.

I am always excited to incorporate surprising metal elements into my artwork…

simply because it’s fun!

Spring thinks it rules
Yet overnight temps defy
Warmth has not won yet!

Can’t just turn it on
Passions hum on warmer days
Still, the pile does grow!

IMG_8609

I’m working diligently on my pieces for the May 9th show at the Raven, but find that warm weather makes a difference in my motivation!  After a cold and windy week, today holds the promise of temps in the 70′s!
