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

Il Forno

5/1/2013

My baby girl (aka 'Thing 1') is finally home from University and I'm so excited. It's good to have my girls nearby.  Though I do believe I may be sharing my studio space with her and possibly her friends when they stop by...not complaining...not one bit.

Our meal at Il Forno was probably one of the best meals I've had out in ages.  My husband is a great cook so I tend to compare, especially when it seems as though we're spending too much money on food that tastes so much better at home.  This meal started out with portions of the lightest calamari, tender meatballs, flavourful Italian salad and finally the wood-fired pizza along with a delicious glass of red wine.  I ate way too much.  And then finished with a creamy homemade cheesecake.  Best one I've had in ages.

After a nice long, evening walk with my husband I was finally able to get back to my studio where I've been working on a project for a friend.  I have an idea of the finished product, a very loose one but it seems to be coming together.  I've been sketching out ideas with the work in progress while I wait in cafes for friends (I tend to be early) and know the colour palette I want to incorporate.  Can't wait to share it.
