For The Time Being

I haven't written much in the last few days, however there are quite a few things in the works!

First, I have begun the first painting in a triptych inspired by a lovely verse in Ntozake Shange's poem "For Colored Girls Who Have Considered Suicide When the Rainbow is Enuf". This was really fun to set up for, I did a little mini photo shoot in the bath in order to create reference photos.

I also got in touch with Local Artist Prints to see about getting set up to sell prints online. Soooo, you may be able to get some affordable prints of my work, and I can keep buying art supplies! It's a win-win in my book :)

Lastly, I have a stack of books on Palaces, Castles and Gardens of Europe to start sketching for the kitty condos. I really hope this project comes through, and I am also hoping to secure a mural gig in a Mexican restaurant.

I leave you with my prayers that your dreams come true and your hearts stay wild today!

"to wash away the glitter
to watch the butterflies melt in to
suds & the rhinestones fall beneath
her buttocks like smooth pebbles
in a missouri creek
layin in water
she became herself
ordinary"
