Wow

SOLD
I just noticed I've been receiving comments. I hadn't thought to look for them. I didn't realize people are already peeking under the drop cloths to check out this blog. Not only that, two are asking if and how they might purchase my artwork! Hence the title of this post. And my big smile.

A quick and incomplete answer: yes, it's all for sale. No, I don't have it listed anywhere as such, but I'll get right on that. I'll do some research, find an appropriate venue, or create one. If you have any ideas: I'm open to suggestions!

In the meantime, you eager readers have inspired me to spiff up the joint, and think a little more about where I'm headed with this new venture. I've got ideas. Oh, baby, do I have ideas! And I do plan to get into them. But first things first: I've taken the drop cloths down, swept the debris out of the corners, tacked up some links, slapped up one more coat of fresh white paint. (I've decided I like these white walls. Who needs wallpaper? It seems more appropriate to keep this backdrop fresh and blank as a gallery wall.)

If this were a real space, I'd have snacks set up in the back. Wait a minute - this is virtual reality. There are snacks in the back - little mini sandwiches and cookies and chocolate and champagne and a great big fruit plate (all impeccably delicious and absolutely calorie-free)! Help yourself! Happy New Year! Make yourself at home! Feel free to nose around. Sign the guest book. And welcome to LifeCraft!

Oh, and come back soon. I promise, there will be more.

Promises, Promises

I told you there would be pictures, images, art. So without further ado, I'll post my first:

Brand New Blog

Welcome to my shiny new blog. Well, it WILL be shiny, once I sort out the look of the thing. So consider yourself warned. There will be pictures! And art! And links galore!

I plan to write about art and design and creative, empowered living. There is art in the day-to-day experience of crafting your life: in relationship, in work, in play, in dreams, and in taking action to realize those dreams. There is no greater art than becoming more and more YOURSELF.

I'll describe (and photograph. And draw. And collage. And who knows what else) the views from my windows and through the peepholes into my dreams. I'll share all the revelations and resources and relevant experiences that cross my path, all the gorgeous inspiring creativity I find in the world and on the web, including books and quotes and music and movies and art and recipes and really good web sites. The point is: INSPIRATION!

My other blog, Babies or Not, will not die. I will continue to post updates and relevant info and links there, too, discussing the ongoing open-ended "will-I-or-won't-I" which has, at least in part, defined my life for the past few years (if not more!)

But there are other parts of me. For instance, I am creative! And it's time this particular part got a room of its own.

So, welcome to my soon to be shiny, brand new blog!

I hope you like.
