Journal.

"The main focus of my work has become storytelling...
honouring the lives + stories of women
through portraiture."

Good (busy) times!

It's been quite a week...so many great things happening and so I've been glad to spend a little time adding texture and colour to a canvas today:
  • Finalized the call for AIRdirondack 2014 (5 YEARS!!!)
  • AIRdirondack Gala 2014 planned for September 20
  • Begun planning for ARTember 2014
  • Completed 2014 Art Programming plans for the library
  • Built & stained 2 Adirondack chairs for a commission
  • Finished making & wrapping gifts and mailed out Christmas cards
  • Only 5 more paintings left of the 52 WEEKS PROJECT!
  • Working on a couple of new projects...can't wait to share
Plus, I've been enjoying more fabulous music on CBC Radio while I've been working...the latest treat is an acoustic version of Hey Ya by Obadiah Parker.  And finished yet another fabulous book:

The Professor and the Madman
by Simon Winchester

This book is actually non-fiction but is so fascinating, it actually reads more like a fiction novel.  The story revolves around the making of the Oxford English Dictionary which began in 1857 and took seventy years to complete.  The two characters, Professor James Murray and Dr. William Chester Minor, an American surgeon, became unlikely friends.
