i think i need a new heART

thank you faithful followers for bearing with me over the last couple of months as i hem and haw my way into fall. i spent the wee hours of the morning sorting and organizing (in my own way) my new studio... i wish i could take the day off and spend it playing in the art dungeon- but there is a lot of exciting stuff happening at the shop these past weeks too... and as far as i know there is still no way to be two places at once.

i am liking the cob webs and the dust. it's pre-messy! last fall i had an opening in the weirdest space downtown. some friends came out and friends of friends. one guy in particular kept saying this phrase over and over... "all of this work is so masturbatory" ... it kind of annoyed me... kind of made me chuckle... and now it's running through my head... about me the last few weeks. i am taking you all along on this weirdly personal journey of packing up my studio. i feel like i can hear a collective... ya ya get on with it already... so, sorry for shuffling my feet. i've been distracted and a little wary... you know how sometimes you walk into a house or a room and think... this space has great light or great energy... well... ideally that's what my studio is for me... an oasis. a "happy place" ha... so... it takes some building.

and... on a side note... i never understood what the line "king of carrot flowers" was referring to... it was just a pretty phrase- i guess i still don't fully understand it... but last night... in my food- i found a beautiful carrot flower- here's how to make them yourself: http://www.ifood.tv/blog/how-to-carve-carrot-flowers
