Stillness in the Midst of Chaos

"Art has something to do with the achievement

of stillness in the midst of chaos."

-Saul Bellow

Rainbow Palette

What happens when my brother and his beautiful family visit? Well, among the many, many other wonderful things I now have a refrigerator full of the most spectacular kiddo art. And the cherry on top is that my niece and I share the love of the same palette. I think we should have a show together sometime!

Happy Bird

My wonderful husband, David, has asked me to go with him to two different art supply stores in the past week.  And I must say that is seriously HOT!

The first store was uneventful.  Totally wonderful and amazing, but uneventful in the BIG EVENT kind of way.  But the second one we went to today WAS eventful.

As we walked in, there was a sweet and very frightened grackle gauging how to get the heck out of the store.  It was bumping into the windows, jumping and flying up and down, up and down.  Dave and I didn't even say anything to each other, but we both totally felt, "We got this."  We went to the open shelving where the grackle was basically freaking out.  Dave blocked on the right and I used my canvas bag on the left to block it on that side.  And then I reached in and cradled it around the back. 

That little grackle was so happy when I walked out the door, placed it on my finger, and it took off. 


...and thus our obsessive art supply store treks were completely validated.  I wonder where we're going tomorrow!

The Things I Say

For the life of me I have no idea why I'm still surprised by the things I find myself saying.

The little guy had been assigned a lovely sketch assignment many weeks ago.  It was due the next day.  What does he do when I nag him (again) about it?

He toots.


Me:  "Art, not fart."


I think that has a future as a bumper sticker.
