yeah! i love this picture....pure happy

A lot to be thankful for, indeed...especially YOU.

[...] In between the postcards and lunch today, I came to know Sharon in two ways. One is that her lovely husband, Spencer, is in my acting agency, and the other is that I actually assisted a good friend of mine who was producing one of Sharon’s photo shoots for Pedigree a couple of years ago. And ~ I will never forget, Sharon bought two of my paintings when the daily paintings were just getting going. She and Spencer also came out in support of the Girly Show around this very time last year. It’s funny how the world is so small that you can be inspired by someone and their work, only to come to know and connect with them years later. I love when that happens! [...]

[...] All of these goodies arrived in the mail on the same day. And they’re too delightful not to share. First, my dear Mati’s tiny tiger kitten painting named Simone. I’ve been wanting a Mati Rose original since we showed together in the Girly Show last year and then when I saw her first tiger kitten with the little tube socks, I knew I had to have one if she made some more and she did!! You can find all of her beautiful, spirited work at her suspect shoppe. Also Mati and Kelly Rae are leading a week of creativity and painting bliss this October in Italy, that I have to spread the word about. How glorious would that be? Painting in Tuscany!! You can find out all the details right here. [...]
