dropped my paintings off at Cafe Zia this afternoon... stop in for a delicious caramel mocha... you will not be disappointed Cafe Zia 2723 Lexington Ave. Woodhill Dr. Roseville, MN 55113 as usual i am burning the candle at both ends... in more than one place at a time... it's 6:30, and i've been up since 5:30 painting and sending out emails announcing my new online store. the lovely side effect? jazz and herbal coffee and waiting for the sun to come up... hoping to squeeze in an hour more or so before I have to leave. i have been updating my online store at a breakneck pace... but still there is so much to do... i hang my show at cafe azia tomorrow... and am finishing up portraits in the coming days... to everyone waiting on portraits... thank you for your patience... check my store for updates in the coming days... i will be adding about 20 more tonight and while working on portraits... the process of cataloging all of my paintings... has been a long one... i am still editing photos and taking measurements... but something about sifting through years of work... feels really really good. paintings i never imagined... now finished... some i forgot all about... some of my favorites are the least technically correct... the least beautiful... big surprise... i like life messy i added about 40 more today here: http://www.jenniferdsandquist.com/buy-art.html I am announcing the grand opening of my online store! I have hundreds of pieces to list... so the inventory will be growing in the coming weeks. http://www.jenniferdsandquist.com/buy-art.html I am headed to Portland at the end of the month for a show there... and I am eager to make sales to help fund my trip. If there is something you are interested... I am open to trades and negotiations. In general I would rather my paintings go to someone that will give them a loving home... than to keep them all to myself! And... I live in a very small apartment... :) this last week i have had an overwhelming urge to run as fast as i can to the nearest body of water... at night... under a full moon and lay down in the grass ... staring up at th stars... waiting for rain... i want ants to crawl on me... i want mosquitos to eat me... i want the ground to absorb me... all of this asphalt... is making me itchy working in the studio (slash dining room... slash livingroom... slash only room in my apartment) ... a sunny rainshower came pelting down... as if to say... GO OUTSIDE NOW... it is this shift between summer and fall that excites my body every year... i become more alive as i watch summer die... it's a sweet spot between hot and frozen that is my nirvana |
