Ladies at a Cafe

I can't decide if I like this or not. It was an exercise to be as quick and loose possible, with watercolor and pen.

Thank you to everyone who came out Saturday to the Peligro Event! Saw good friends, met new sweet people, drank free margaritas, listened to good live music, a nice time. And special thanks to Chris Vigil for organizing the entire thing and letting me be a part of it. I'll scan & post my other pieces sometime this week.

Peligro!

Hey guys, I'm happy to announce that I'm part of a ONE NIGHT ONLY gallery and music event this coming Saturday, July 23rd. The event is called Peligro <--click for website, and it starts at 8pm, ends whenever we want. I'll have some watercolors for sale and sharing a wall with this crazy talented artist, Arthur Fong. Please come and hang out if not for the art, for the music, but hopefully for the art too.

Seo Kim posted an adorable Ludo drawing and it reminded me of this - How did I forget about these little guys? They were tiny 2x3" stitched pieces I created a couple years ago for a charity art show. LUUUDDDDDDOOOOOOOOO!!!!!

Per Bimba Beatrice

This is a hanging mobile (I think that's what they're called?) I made last year in Italy as a present for my boyfriend's niece, Beatrice. They are hand stitched little birds perched on & hanging from branches I found in Urbino on one of our walks. (They sort of resemble fish, but shut up, they're birds!)
Beatrice's mom tells me that she runs in the room, yells "Pio, pio, pio!" and she has to run and hold her so that she can play with them.

Here they hang in her room, by a magically sturdy hanging device my boyfriend's father made and it turned out perfectly!

Here's the little cutie! I'm glad you like it, Beatrice!!
