Friday is here and I’m running around getting everything ready for tomorrow’s show. Last coats of glaze will go on and packing and repacking will happen because my brain wants to add more to the already packed boxes for tomorrow. My Thanksgiving dinner will be on display along with some fantastical creatures. I might evenContinue reading “Outdoor Event – September 18th”

If Walls Could Talk
During the past few months I’ve been volunteering at the Art Shoppe in Minneapolis to help while someone was out on vacation. Getting to know and speak with other artists and authors is one of the highlights. My payment is in helping the creatives in the shop get paid for their work. There’s something satisfyingContinue reading “If Walls Could Talk”
Saturday Alternate Worlds
This morning I woke up to my husband leaning over my face to tell me that he was going on a run. He does this sometimes out of habit but also because I’ve told him to. You know the mind of a writer. To normal people waking up and finding the person you love missingContinue reading “Saturday Alternate Worlds”
Spaghetti, Meatballs, and Rainbows
Hump Day started the same as every day. A drive in the morning to drop off my husband at work. I always pass a row of trees near the road that hand over the end to shade the street like tall green umbrellas. For a few seconds, I felt like I was driving down aContinue reading “Spaghetti, Meatballs, and Rainbows”
Life Up North
The great fight of the North started at the beginning of the month. The cold of the night clings longer to the mornings and our temperatures have dipped. Those who live in California or down South already have on their Fall coats but not in Minnesota. We wear our shorts and run around in shortContinue reading “Life Up North”
Fall Is In Session!
The school year has officially started and summer ended after Labor Day. We are two months away from NaNoWriMO and my mind is on Preptober. The question is, am I going to do Preptober and Inktober? I bought my ink pad over the weekend to give it a try. I thought I would follow theContinue reading “Fall Is In Session!”
Happy Labor Day!
Happy Labor Day! The last day of the Minnesota State Fair is here but I had my fill of fried food on a stick. My long weekend was filled with running errands and accidents with a hot glue gun. After watching other artists create miniature models out of Amazon boxes, I was inspired to createContinue reading “Happy Labor Day!”
Labor Day!
The beginning of September begins with a long weekend before we swing into fall. Those in school get one more day off before classes begin. Stepping outside this week, a few days of summer warmth try to cling onto the new month but we dipped into the 70s this week with a few rainy days.Continue reading “Labor Day!”
Hallmark Season
This weekend in Minnesota is one of the last few at cabins on the lake for many people before they pull in their docks and store their boats. Those who love finishing make their last few casts for the season during their long weekend. Then, the routine of getting everyone to school and work onContinue reading “Hallmark Season”
Welcome September!
Welcome September! This weekend means an extra day to get ready for my next show. I have to check my book inventory this week to see if I need to order more. My pen will be in hand with some new art pieces. Yes, my face will light up like other creators when you stopContinue reading “Welcome September!”
Summary Content
Tuesday is here but I’m still thinking about the weekend. Have you ever had to hunt down zebra or elephant cards with phrases on them? Well, that’s what I did while I was in The Art Shoppe on Sunday. I started to look at the variety of cards from different artists and some of themContinue reading “Summary Content”
Top 100 Dog Books
My studio is a mess right now and I’m scrambling to get everything ready for an all day event in Roseville, Minnesota. I will be there, books and all. I have no idea what to expect because I’ve never done this outdoor event. It could be crickets for all I know but I’ve been thereContinue reading “Top 100 Dog Books”
