christmas eve day

Just wanted to wish everyone a merry Christmas Eve day! I was so slammed for Christmas this year. It was my most last-minute Christmas effort ever. But somehow, some way, I pulled it all together--and everything is done! Even the house is clean! So I'm off to make some art and just have a relaxing day.
Hope all of you have a nice smooth day!

a little art

i've been insanely busy, and i'm so behind on Christmas that I don't even want to think about it. So there's been virtually no art time. But I did get this front + back journal page made for an artist friend. It's a 5x7 nature-themed swap:

PBJ

My youngest son was in the newspaper again this morning. The last time was just a few months ago when he organized the local 350 event.
This kid's gonna be a mover and a shaker. He has a real heart for humanity and for trying to make a difference in the world.

live your life

here's an 8x10 mixed-media journal page made for a PAT (pick-a-theme)swap.

Gallery Walk

here are a few random photos from gallery walk on friday night. we took the pix before the walk kicked off.

dreamer

here's a 4.5x6.5 mixed media piece for a dreamer swap. i need to look it up, but i think john lennon is the one who wrote "imagine," which is where the text is from.

final sneak peek

here's the last piece i'm going to reveal for gallery walk. hope to see all the juneau-ites at skeins tonight. i'll be there from 4 pm on.
this is "99801." the original canvas is 20x24 (i think) and i have giclee prints that are 24x32.

Two More Reveals

Here are a couple more pieces I made for Gallery Walk. "Crow"--acrylics w/a lot of texture: original canvas 16x20. giclee prints 15x17.
"As A Bird"--mixed media. original canvas 16x20.giclee prints 15x18.
I'll do one final reveal tomorrow. I do have more that will be available at Gallery Walk, but the pieces I'm "revealing" are the feature works.

According to the store owner, the originals of these have both sold, tho' they will remain in the show.

Balance

Here's another sneak peek: "balance." I have large prints available, roughly 11x17ish.

Gallery Walk

Juneau's annual Gallery Walk kicks off Friday, Dec 4th downtown with holiday lights and music, as well as goodies galore.
I'll be at Skeins in the Senate Building, 2nd floor, on South Franklin St. Friday night--come see me! You can see my art there anytime, but I'll only be there Friday night...with a lot of new art.
I can't wait to reveal my canvases, but right now the guy who makes my giclee prints has my portable hard drive with the images on it, so here's something else that will be available in 8x10 or 11x16 prints. This started out as a postcard, which you've seen, but it looks way cool larger!
I'll be "revealing" some of my Gallery Walk pieces all week, so be sure to stop back!
