Washington, a place to call home...for a little while anyways

We have been enjoying exploring this new state we call home now! CC is thriving here, and we all love the fact that we are together every evening!   

Longing for some studio time (part 2)

...and an update. Being a mama of a one year old I've had to learn to juggle the ever demanding role as a full time badass house mum (please indulge me, it's been a long day!) and the ever growing pull towards my work/art. I have so many designs dancing through my head, trying to sketch them out on a wet wipe while also trying to change my son's diaper, or finding a crumpled receipt (from target, for diapers) to sketch..and always in need of a pencil! Needless to say thing have been hectic! But good, and finding time for my two loves! Family and art! Now in Seattle for a time I have started painting again to keep my creative mind sharp..

Longing for studio time!
