Free Friday

Looking through my color book trying to find the perfect brown to mix... and listening to this and feeling happy (even though I wish I could be here).

If I wasn't a Simple Inker, I'd want to be a Fish Liberator. (You'll know what I mean if you watch the whole video.)

Or, if I couldn't be a Fish Liberator, I'd settle for just being Holly Beck.

Are you free?

Dreamy Thursday

Working on a wedding taking place here in just a few short months. Again, I can't wait for leaves on the trees.

Listening to this and feeling happy.

Gone, but not Forgotten.

Dear Readers,

I am still here -- I do promise that. The last few weeks have been filled with lovely wedding projects and packing the studio carefully for our big move. I'm glad to say that, although I sit here surrounded by boxes and dripping paint cans, the moving is complete. The computer is back up and running and blogging will resume soon!

For now, I'll leave you with this photo -- the view from my new window. I love my little birdie friend, who seems to spend much of his time in that very spot. Can't wait for his tree to have leaves soon.

Missing you, Mr. Sun.

Love,
A

Thanks

Thanks to all the many friends and new customers who came out to see me in Downtown Bend last week. Here are a few scenes from, Silverado, the prettiest store around:



(And my favorite customer of all time. The smile had nothing to do with Mom's stationery and everything to do with a chocolate ice cream cone.)

Thanks again so much, Heather, and all the Silverado gals.

Gift Sets

I'm excited about these boxed gift sets Jeff & I put together for Art Hop in downtown Bend tonight. Get a beautiful box of Thank You notes, a handmade bookmark, and a set of magnets all for the normal price of just the notes! We put together a bunch like these, all colors and styles.

If you're an out-of-towner and would like to take advantage of this same deal, just drop me an email! Shipping is on me!

Luv,
A
