I miss your fun-loving, vivacious personality and most of all your hugs and words, "I love you, mom."

With all the wet weather we've been having in the San Francisco area, I'm continually thinking of mermaids. I love the art of Florence Harrison and this watercolor is a nod to the artist's beautiful works. This 5"x7" original piece is now available in my Etsy shop. Do you have a favorite artist that moves you? I'd love to know who inspires you to create, so leave a comment. Look forward to hearing from you!
He along with several other long-eared friends will be making an appearance at Glitterfest Spring, a folk art show this Saturday, March 19, in Santa Ana, CA. He may have some goodies inside his fat belly, getting ready or Easter.
So don't forget to stop by and say hello at Glitterfest! Happy Spring!
Take a magical journey under the sea as we create miniature theaters of a mystical mermaid during a unique workshop Wednesday, April 6, 6 pm - 9 pm, at Tangerine in Dublin (7038 Village Parkway, Dublin, CA). Using recycled materials and a few new, you'll learn how to encrust a small tin with seashells and coral as if it washed up on the shore. Inside, we'll place a beautiful mermaid, or you can bring an image of your own choosing.
You'll need to bring a basic supply kit (scissors, tacky glue, pencil, Exacto blade, etc.) and the rest will be provided. Workshop fee is $50. Enjoy a fun-filled evening of creating your own small underwater realm.
To register, please call Tangerine (925) 548-8447 with your payment. Space is limited. If you have questions, please email me.
Can you hear the mermaids calling?
I was honored to have an article and art published about how my precious 17-year-old daughter fought for her life and died a hero in my eyes. You'll find it in the Melange section, page 50, in Somerset Studio, May/June 2008. As difficult as it was to write, it is a wonderful way to memorialize one who had so much life yet to live. Please let me know what you think.
