Thank you cirrusskooter for including me in your intoxicating treasury on Etsy!  Take a look-see below.

Yes, I’ve been watching 30 Rock.  On to other news, here are some photos from the opening reception a few weeks back.  Time flies by so fast and there just isn’t enough time in the day to do everything!  I long for the vacations where I have time off to do fun things like bake or sew.  One day…

Between all my classes, the readings, working on a term paper, visiting with my newborn nephew (!), and spending Valentine’s with my beau, I have managed to squeeze in some whole days painting!  Especially after working in the woodshop so much lately, I really craved a painting play date. Here are some works in progress:

Here is some of the new work on view at the Sweeney right now.  The opening was actually a lot of fun.  We went to happy hour first at Sevilla and then the opening was on a First Thursday night so there was a lot of foot traffic abound.  Thank you all who came out to support me!  Photos will follow but first I have to get them off of Christine’s camera.

I spent today installing at the UCR SweeneyArtGallery and I’m so happy to be done!  Things have been rough around here lately: sick with the cold, midterm, staying up way too late working on art, and not eating good.  But alas, I went to the market today, bought food for the first time in a while, and even watered my lawn!  Many of my plants were going to desert me if I didn’t kick it up a notch…and in fact, one lavender might not come back.  We’ll see.  Anyways, sorry for the rant.  The opening is this Thursday!  I’m done complaining.  Oh, and my back hurts and I’m really thirsty.  Ok, really done.

I will have some new works on view in the Sweeney Gallery’s Project Room.
