Year of Inspiration 7

Day 6, Artwork #7

One weeks worth of inspirational pieces already done and on their way to new homes. I like the sound of that. I really do enjoy this, and honestly, it takes me about 5 minutes or less to do each one...so I really think it is something I can stick with. I just hope that I can find homes for all of this artwork by the end of the year. I know that I can always share them with our ACTS sisters and brothers going on retreat this year. But I kind of like the idea of some total stranger seeing one of these pieces and being inspired by it and brave enough to request it! Is that you? This piece is spoken for, but come Wednesday, I will have one available. Unfortunately, I will be out of town, and not totally sure I will be able to post Friday through Monday. But I'm thinking that with my iPad etc, I should be able to handle that! As long as I take along my supplies and find time to do the art!

Two months flew by!

I can't believe it's been two months since I posted. Christmas threw me for a loop, and then in January I was busy creating artwork, framing a ton of work for friends and myself, and creating a catalog --- all for the St. Louis Calligraphy Guild Members' Exhibit. The invitation is posted above, created by Adonna Deibel, and our opening is this Sunday, February 1 from 1 to 3.
I know it's Super Bowl Sunday! But at least it's earlier in the afternoon! We are excited about all of the work that our members are exhibiting and if you are in the St. Louis area in February, you should stop in to the Creative Gallery at 3232 Ivanhoe 63139--near I-44 and Jamieson.

Besides lettering on paper, some pieces are done on wood, glass, stone, fabric and in cast paper--all things we attempted to learn throughout the last year. The title is Varied Surfaces to reflect this year of study. I may post artwork from the exhibit at a later date.....
