Eunice Parsons at Luke Dolkas
Eunice Parsons is a woman of such talent and focus it often takes my breath away. I wrote about her in May 2009 and a studio visit R made to see her work. Today a new show of small collages opens at Luke Dolkas art & framing (2707 SE Belmont) and I zoomed by Friday […]
City Day…
Day three of the birthday week was a wandering sort of day…looking, maybe a little shopping. In the quilting world people are always coming up with interesting things to do with scraps and the window designs downtown this season have some fabulous displays. Here’s Anthropologie’s Christmas window and a FANTASTIC color display Plus this shop […]
Sweet Miscellany…
At the beach we sort of wander through a day and what happens, well…happens. Today we saw this adorable small building looking like a combo of the old west and Amsterdam (tho destined to be a coffee drive-through I fear), some deers wandering through a neighborhood of homes where nobody lives trimming the wisteria a […]
MAD Chapter 2
It’s sooooo cold here today. I went by the creek planting site this morning on my way back from the last Thanksgiving errands, and though all the holes were neatly dug, the planters weren’t there…too cold I thought: but on our way to coffee we did a quick drive by just in case and found […]
Cassandra Jones at PNCA…
I forgot to mention the show in the Project Space Gallery at PNCA…up until January 10, 2011. The work of Cassandra Jones has some terrific images including my favorite…I forgot to write down the title (reporting skills go south for lack of coffee…)
Another Art Saturday…
Up to Portland today to see some art before attending the artists’ reception at 12X16. Stopped at Elizabeth Leach Gallery to look at Malia Jensen’s “Shelved” which included bronze and cast crystal pieces and then a nice selection of Lee Kelly smaller works to compliment the big show of his work at The Portland Art […]
Billy2
While at the Billy Collins poetry reading the other evening I noticed (we were sitting way up high) the preponderance of “devices” as I looked down over the crowd…and also how wonderfully chaotic and casual “hairdos” have become…the first poem he read was from his new book out soon and called “Oh My God…which is […]
The Garden Studio: The First Day…
On Friday I put three coats of finish on the floor…one every three hours..and by Saturday afternoon it looked like this and then Saturday the “elves” arrived and helped us move in all the stuff. After sifting through the boxes and bags hurriedly packed when I left both the Annex and the cottage studio, I […]
Coffee…Art…
Actually I had this coffee on Thursday in Sellwood…not as professionally beautiful as stumptown, but good…just longing for it here on a gloomy Saturday morning…plus the need to post something that isn’t about the studio project… We went to a terrific show Thursday at the Marylhurst Art Gym…their 30th anniversary show…which was all portraits of […]
