The Announcement...for Art.
My greater creation is still in the womb awaiting his moment...for a few more weeks anyway.
Until then, here's the flyer for my 2nd Saturday Art Show this weekend:
If you're near or in Sacramento, please come out!

Update
Okay, so quick update.
Although I have been absent here, I have been busy...makin' a baby. Our little boy still isn't here yet, but the clock is ticking down. He is due in May and that ain't far away!
In the mean time, since I've been a little less mobile I have taken to learning to knit and to cook more at home. Which really isn't a bad thing at all.
Knitting is interesting to me and I've started picking it up fairly quick. Still working at it, but getting there.
Artwork itself has been more of a concept than anything for me as of late. I have had an idea here and there, but no real motivation as of yet. Last month Matt broke his musical silence and not only built a new bad, but also wrote and recorded an album in 3 weeks and had a kick-ass CD release show at a cafe. It was awesome, inspiring, and he makes me SO proud.
He also motivated me.
A week or so after his performance I received a call asking me to be the artist for the month of April (naturally). And even though that gave me a month, I don't have a lot prepared. SO what I decided to do is say yes. Now I have a few weeks to get this show together!!
Forever ago I created the 10 small pieces based on muscles (you can find that post in the past somewhere on here) and extend from that. Originally I wanted to do 50 similar small pieces, but I think it has evolved. I'm bored with the muscles now. At least, those ones. haha. I have somehow turned it into muscles/masculinity/biology vs organs/femininity/psychology and overall body image. dum-dum-dum!
Yeah, we'll see how it works out.
So I have 10 small works. I am working on finishing one medium piece from the past, and I am doing at least 5 brand new pieces. woot!
How's that for motivation. All from my loving husband. :o)
And I'm hoping that this inspires me to do more once I am on leave from work. We shall see. . .
When I get more of these works together, I will post them up!
Welcome back me!

Not much...
...is going on today.
I had a bleh day for the first part of yesterday. I knew it from the moment I woke up that I was going to struggle to make it through the morning. I was just so damn tired!
So to try & pump myself up and make myself feel better about it all, I over-accessorized...and I didn't care one bit. hahaha. Usually I go fairly minimal. Not yesterday. this is one of my favorite necklaces....but I don't usually wear it, or the earrings I paired with it.
What do you think? Too many faux pearls? Don't care.
haha.
To help get me in a better mood in the mornings I have a new magnet and saying that I look at. It gives me a laugh.
It still makes me laugh.
In other news, I found out that the rack I painted for the Sacramento News & Review will have an artists reception next week on Thursday, and then an open to the public reception on Sacramento's 2nd Saturday Artwalk. Here's my little cheesy flier I made:
I'm thinking about posting it about in a few places. It should be a lot of fun. I can't wait to see what some of the other artists did...I've seen a few, but I know there are a good deal more. It really was such a cool project. If you don't know what it is, check it out in one of my earlier blog sessions here.
I'll be posting pictures of the reception as soon as I can. It's not until next week, so tune back in next week for more on the show!
**EDIT** - Just found out that the news stand project was featured on one of the local morning news shows, Good Morning Sacramento! I didn't see mine in the clip, but it's great exposure for the project none-the-less!!
