Working in my home art studio . . . .

Just a glimpse where I do my art work . . . .

Yes, I always wear protective gloves, apron and mask.  In this photo, 

I am working with charcoal and charcoal generates a lot of dust that
becomes airborne (like chalk pastels), so I take protective measures.  You
should also.

Its just who I am . . . .

    Happy New Year 2019!

       I am not the same woman that I was at the beginning of 2018.  My Spirit continues to evolve and shift.  My values and priorities change.  My passions multiply and divide.  There's no telling how many things I will start and stop in 2019.  How many triumphs and failures I will experience.  How many blissful moments along with devastation I will feel.  But one thing is for sure . . .  I will never stop being curious.  I will never stop trying to learn and explore.  I will stay true to my path and support others on theirs.  I will do my best to not harm others and not back down when challenged.  I will continue to nourish my mind, my body, and my Spirit.  My experience has been . . . that as long as I do these things. . .  I am sure to lead a life rich in meaning and substance that makes me feel grateful and alive.

The Story of Her (My) Life

I watched it - it was wonderful!  I was in my late teens (very late teens!) she was someone I truly enjoyed.

The story of Gilda Radner's Life.  

(I don't usually do this but CNN is doing a special on Gilda on New Year's Eve 2019)

but . . . . . I want to share this with you!

I love this. 

I read it on a friend's Face Book post.

I decided to share it with y'all. (You. Lucky. Readers.)!

Story of my life!

I wanted a perfect ending. Now I've learned, the hard way, that some poems don't rhyme, and some stories don't have a clear beginning, middle, and end. Life is about not knowing, having to change, taking the moment and making the best of it, without knowing what's going to happen next. Delicious Ambiguity.

"Something"

An Exhibit by Francesca Fuchs

2018 Texas Artist of the Year

Francescas Fuchs works in acrylics on canvas board.  Fuchs says, "I work the old-fashioned way. I make little paintings, like 10 by 13 inches, and then make cartoon drawings from them. I change the drawing till I'm happy with it, make stencils and trace them onto the large canvas or the wall, then paint it."

Fuchs is an instructor at the Glassell School of Art in Houston.

The Jung Center

5200 Montrose Blvd.
Houston, TX

     In my visit to The Jung Center, I saw Kristen Cliburn’s exhibit.  Her canvases are visual distillations of the natural world. Cliburn states,  "she views the work as allusions to the physical world through the subtle isolation of color and light”.  Her paintings can be positively transformative, calling on the viewer to stop, be still and contemplate.

Art Share . . . The Belle Epoque era of the art scene

The Belle Époque was an era of peace and plenty between wars

The French expression Belle Époque was used in retrospect after the horrors of World War One—a term of nostalgia for a simpler time of peace, prosperity, and progress.

"Off The Wall Gallery"  

610 West Loop, The Galleria, Houston, Texas 

At "Off The Wall Gallery" you will find original works of art from the Impressionaist and Belle Epoque periods, as well as contemporary impressionist works.  

I went to see some of the original art work of Malcolm Liepke whose work is unabashed, confident and human.  Narrative figurative paintings are his thing.  I'm hoping they become my thing!  His paint is thick, and the brush stokes are often visable and wide-set. Oil is his chosen medium.  Bold brushstrokes, rich buttery surfaces and most importantly, the timeless humanity of his classically inspired imagery have yielded him tremendous success around the world!

Enjoy.
