TRYING THIS AGAIN...

SOOOOO FRUSTRATING 
April 20, 2011 
  
This is so frustrating for me...to have my blog working as it should for one posting, but not the next!  This is from my laptop rather than my desktop...we'll see if it makes a difference.
My next several weeks are going to be very busy so I probably won't have time to post...I think I'm going to start posting once a week after May 15th. I picked that date because between now and then, I have a 50th high school reunion to attend and an art workshop with one of my favorite artists, DJ Pettitt. Do you know her work? 
Here are two pieces of mine...again, answering challenges put forth by TAKE A WORD 

The theme here is TRAVEL...something near and dear to my heart



...and 4X4 FRIDAY wanted participants to THINK SUMMER!! SUMMER????? It's hardly spring here in Central New York!! But, I did what was asked...

I'd love for you to do what I ask...please check back after May 15th for a new post, chock full of photos, art and a trip report!

"See" you soon... thanks for checking in!

Sorry folks...something is obviously wrong with the software for my blog. Must find out what it is before I blog again. Will keep you posted.

See you soon,

TWO MORE...

THEMES GALORE! 
April 19, 2011

My next several weeks are going to be very busy so I probably won't have time to post any art...it's the old "LIFE" getting in the way! But I'll be having a wonderful, instructive time at an art workshop with DJ Pettitt...can't wait as I love her art. Check these sites and you'll see what I mean!

Here are my last two pieces 'til soon...
For TAKE A WORD's challenge blog...it's all about TRAVEL!

For 4X4 FRIDAY, we were asked to THINK "Summer..." even though it's SPRING that's around the corner for us, here in Central New York. Summer????
 Thanks for checking in. I'll TRY to blog during the next 3 weeks... please DO check back after May 15th. I look forward to "seeing you" again.

MORE ART...

HOPING IT'S NOT FUNKY...April 17, 2011 

SUNDAY POSTCARD ART issued the first challenge I answered. The task was to illustrate a song title. I chose the very timely but old BROTHERS IN ARMS...

I continued my recess on the digital playground ...the subject: TREES! These were for THINK MONDAY-THINK ATC
 
How I enjoyed getting back to my OBSESSION after too long without the time to do so.

Please visit "the vivere" again...I look forward to "seeing" you!

xox,
