Loving Vincent
Last month my mom and I saw the movie Loving Vincent at the Detroit Institute of Arts. The four-year project, directed by a Polish husband and wife team was brought to life by 120 artists from around the world. Together, they created the first ever hand-painted movie. Told through the eyes of the Postman's son, … Continue reading Loving Vincent
Niagara Falls
Just prior to my surgery, mentioned in my last post, "Catching Up", my family went on a mini weekend vacation to Niagara Falls. Originally we were thinking of doing a big vacation to California, but because I had no idea of how the recuperation would go and my husband's work travel schedule, we had to … Continue reading Niagara Falls

Well Hello, Dahlia
A few months ago, my friend posted a beautiful picture of a Dahlia flower on Facebook. To date, I hadn't painted a close-up lone flower – the fear of all that detail – but I have seen many artists accomplish the task beautifully and I felt up for the challenge. What could be more perfect for … Continue reading Well Hello, Dahlia
