I have to sit with it a bit more and take additional photos post-varnish (no colors ever seem to be accurate as they are in real life), but here is my most recent commission. God I love that dress! It took a lot of patience but I really wanted to include it.
Ike does not look amused by this extra cat in the house.
Motivational Talk: Radio Guest on LoLo Knows
If you ever wanted hear me blab about the music industry, art, Joan Crawford, my awesome husband, and why after everything I’ve been through medically I just suck it up (despite a cat sitting on my catheter bag), well then, you are in luck! I was invited to co-host on motivational talk show LoLoKnows earlier this week. Fair warning, I swear a lot! I guess you could say my version of motivational talk is to tell people to get on with it, and just deal. Otherwise, you are wasting your own time.

Ephemeral Antidotes: Arabella Proffer
A 2012 catalogue of paintings dealing with faith and medical history. Fictitious portraits, and their stories, written by artist Arabella Proffer.
Speaking of this series, I saw my primary care doctor for the first time in a while — just for a cold — and he mentioned seeing this exhibit in Cleveland by accident. He did full on hand flail EW jestures as he said, “it was interesting….so did you sell any of those?” When I told him I have almost sold it out and the first pieces to go were on skin diseases, he said, “yuck! eeeeeeewwwww”. Then, he proceeded to look deep into my blood clogged nose. I’m so confused right now. I guess this is why he never became a surgeon?
New Painting: Snow Dove
A little 5×7″ painting I did using the left over globs of paint from a larger commission I’ve been working on. I’ve had a bad habit since an instructor at Art Center College of Design told me to always squeeze out more than I need. Well, that gets expensive with oil paint, and wasteful in my case, since I always have tons leftover no matter the situation. It seemed silly to waste anymore.
“Snow Dove” oil on panel. $350.00

Art Print Giveaway and Craft Cocktails
If you are in the area, be sure to check out my mini show at Toast in Gordon Square before it comes down on December 14th. They have a pretty amazing menu and the happy hour is great too. Big thanks to Dott Scheinder for hooking me up. I’m glad the first painting I sold was to the owner of the wine/beer store that keeps my husband and I lit…
How appropriate in all ways.
I will be having a little contest beginning next week for a set of mini prints. Three winners will be chosen, but only if you are on Instagram, so follow me there!
Alas, no Art Basel Miami for me this weekend, but maybe next year.
