I am participating in this holiday show, but what I am showing and selling are items from my 'past life' as a weaver. I have a lot of clothing and accessories, and even some yardage, of handwoven material I used to weave.  Yes it is a departure, but also a clearing and letting go. Look for the soft goods section at the show.

I've done it! Finished the 30 paintings in 30 days challenge. Actually I painted 19 absolutely new paintings and slipped in a few painted earlier in the summer...but who's counting? Feeling very good about it...that it is over, and about my new works. Slowing they are getting framed for the selling and exhibiting season. 

This year I wrote a blog post for each of these paintings and made sure they posted to social media. Facebook, Instagram, and Pinterest. I hope to continue this good habit at least a few times a week. Now I need to go plan the next series of paintings.
