  • Day Two 20 Days in a Pandemic

    September 22nd, 2020

    Today was a whirl wind. i haven’t had time to eat lunch. Its an intense long school day and technically I’ve had no time to work in my studio or write. I went down to my studio during one of the kids brain breaks and ended up causing the kids to be ten minutes late back to class.

    Fiona was on and off her school all day. Her FM is not working still and she is still complaining about school. We sat in on a class at CSDF today too, I wanted to find out if Fiona would prefer that instead of mainstream, but the ASL was really advanced for Fiona so she wouldn’t participate. everything’s so up in the air.

    I haven’t taken a shower or even brushed my teeth today. I haven’t been outside or opened the blinds the sink is full of dishes and the house is a mess. But I am still feeling better because of my studio and working on the project. I started these silks and plan to stitch them.

    Silks with print in progress, the plan is to add stitch, maybe sewing them all together as a long scroll representing time. or a silk quilt with s bunch of faces!

  • Day One of 20 days in a Pandemic Art Project!

    September 21st, 2020

    A journal: 20 Days during the Pandemic. Getting back in the studio. Daily Writing and Studio Practice September 21st to October 10th 2020.

    I’m not sure how to organize my new project on my blog. I want to have my daily journal separate from my main page/Blog Posts. How can I do that? I created a Page, but I’m not sure where it is on the page, if it’s easy to find. I need to ponder this. But I can tell you it feels DAMN good to be working on a project. Who knows what it will turn out like? I don’t know. I am envisioning 20 different pieces of work, some type of installation. With writing. I want little written pieces that correspond with the work. I’ve gotten started at least. I guess I wonder, can I go back and edit my writings? If it’s journal entries? What is the relationship between the physical gallery space and my blog/ physical artwork and writing? Many questions to answer, many fun questions.

    I want to keep my blog separate because I will have much to write about Fiona’s education/cochlear implant journey. I have so many questions there too and major concerns about mainstream.

    My time is up today.

  • Sunday New Start

    September 20th, 2020

    Sunday morning. Fiona and I spent the morning in the messy studio.

    We made our worry boxes

    I prepared several pieces of silk and paper for my new project, I’m thinking “ 20 Days during a pandemic: a parents journey getting back into a daily studio practice” with daily writing, painting, and stitching. Fiona is also participating. I’m not sure about the title yet. My goal is to start tomorrow, Monday September 21st.

    I need to clean my studio tomorrow and create a spot for Fiona to work daily. I’m excited! This will be a nice break from all the other stressful things in our lives!
