FLATCOLOR GALLERY: Feb 4th

Thank you to all of my friends and family for coming out to the show last night! There were some really nice pieces in the show - the other 6 artists live out of state - unfortunately, I wish I could've met them. If you get a chance to check out the show, it will be up for the month of February.

Here's my STUMPYTOWN contribution to the show...


(above photo: courtesy of Flatcolor Gallery)

EACH: 6" x 15"x 1/2" Acryla-Gouche and Cel paint on wood panel
The first painting was from a past show at Bluebottle Gallery. We didn't have a theme to go off of, so I decided to use this initial painting as a jump-start for the rest of my pieces.

"Waiting" 7 1/2" x 12" Polar Fleece, Wool Felt & Polyfill

Untitled 11" x 9" Polar fleece, wool felt, polyfill & chopstick

Untitled 6" x 12" Polar fleece, wool felt & polyfill

"Mended Heart" 10" x 12" Polar Fleece, woolf felt, polyfill & leather


Untitled 5" x 12 1/2" Polar fleece, wool felt, polyfill, wire & glass chopper

If you are interested in any of the pieces, please contact Flatcolor Gallery

Illo Friday : CONFINED


I've never been one to play Scrabble, but Dev recently got me hooked on the "Words with Friends" app! But, what drives me bonkers is always seem to get stuck with the letter "Q" without any good tiles to work with... I'm left with the only option to slide that dang Q next to an "I" for "Qi". Meh. I've got to learn to ditch the "Q" earlier in the game. ;-)

STUMPYFRIENDS, literally.

I had the most incredible surprise of my life last night. I truly had no idea the party was planned and I was genuinely confused the moment I walked through the door. To be surrounded by friends and family... it was overwhelming.

I owe a big THANK YOU to Dev, my sister Kim and Patrick, my folks, Lily and Dru - you schemers!, my relatives and all of my amazing friends I've grown to know and love all of these years. I'm the luckiest person in the world having you all in my life.

I turn 40 next week... I've had mixed feelings about it. This past year, I've talked with Dev and Kim about the feelings I had about how silly it seemed to do 'Stumpytown' in my 'old age'. They both have been unbelievably supportive and encouraging... I feel embarrassed that thought had crossed my mind.

My husband and friends created a Stumpytown Tribute show for me! I cannot believe they did this. I was blown away. I still am speechless...

Thank you to everyone for an amazing birthday. I will never forget it. You have no idea how much it meant to me too see you all there last night. I LOVE YOU ALL!

Dev, Kim & Patrick... THANK YOU SO MUCH.

And mah, I can't believe you baked all of those cookies! (actually, I can. Ah, childhood memories.) Christy, thank you for the beautiful and insanely delicious German Chocolate cake... I'm still eating it!

Hey Folks!


I am participating in this month's LIVE drawing event at HALOGEN GALLERY with my bud Suzanne tomorrow night! If you are in the Belltown area, Please stop by.

"Drum of the Draw" is a monthly live, invitational drawing event that brings artists and their creative process to the public for one night each month. The artists create original drawings while the public is invited to enjoy refreshments, observe the artists at work and purchase art as it is completed. None of the work is over $200.00, making it an affordable way to purchase works from some of your favorite Seattle artists. "

HALOGEN

Seattle, WA 98121 OCT 23rd 5pm-9pm
Thanks to Robert Hardgrave for the invite.
