i played tennis today with three pals ... and it was nearly 80 degrees! that's just crazy ... but, boy, did we make the most of the gorgeous weather .... who can think of christmas doings when it feels like summer?
this afternoon i worked on this piece ... well, barely .... i just added on that line across it .... it is meant to be "wire" but is actually a piece of leather .... wire doesn't show up as starkly as i need it to .... tomorrow, julia's fifth grade will be putting birds on this wire ... wish me luck .... i need their birds to match my vision ... no easy task!
and here is a picture of my studio at the moment .. this is the piece i'm working on for drew's fifth grade .... on golden pond ... that's just sky .... i'll show you more tomorrow ... i'm roughing out the big pictured and the kids are going to do the detail work .... i hope!! 
when you looked at that last photo did you notice the big white bucket in the center top? that is mat medium... a whole vat full!! i frequently buy it in this vast quantity and just slop it into squirt bottles, but today i was working straight from the bucket .... i'm having a dinner party for 12 here tomorrow night .. for my book club .... hopefully i'll blog in the afternoon!! cause i know you'll be waiting to hear what i've done artistic with my day ....and if i wait til evening or night, it probably just won't happen .....
tra la la .... go do something happy .....
