making the nest

So this is really my first experience with blogs. Crazy I know in this age of the technical savvy (which I clearly am not). But here it goes!

My intention for the blog is for it be a place to share my current art projects and thoughts on art. I also want to get my art 'out there', and what better way than the web!

One thing I'm really interested in right now is building a bridge between my everyday eating, working, sleeping life and the art I create. Right now I feel that those two are seperate things. I am especially curious to know what others think/see/feel when they look at my art. I invite you to spend some time (or even a passing moment) looking at a few pieces of work and then post what your thoughts are in response to those art works. There is no right or wrong answer. Truly!

Thank you and enjoy (smile).

I invite you to respond to these paintings in whatever way feels most natural to you. Perhaps with just one word, or maybe an idea, or perhaps you have a question for me. Here are a few suggestions to get you started: what do you see when you look at these works? what do you feel? what do you like or not like about them? is there one or part of one that attracts you?

I promise there is no right or wrong answer. Your response will help me greatly as I develop m art practice. And you'll be helping me get my graduate degree!

Thanks for looking,
