One happy mama.
Mother's Day this year was so nice. I LOVED it. I love being a part of each of these beautiful girls lives. I'm the lucky one. We are settled in to this life. We are in a home we love. We have friends we love. We are healthy and happy and that makes for a life we truly love. I feel the differ...

To the power of 3.
Yup. The three P's are as good as ever. They are SO happy that Spring is here and I am SO happy that every night at bedtime they are as pooped as can be. It's good. We are transitioning out of baby-mode and finding our groove in busy-kid land. Naps - what the heck are those? Down time - what ...

THAT feeling.
This is an in-progress shot from a painting I finished on Friday. It's not complete in this photo. There's not much to say other than I really enjoyed every minute of this piece. Every minute. Just thinking about it kind of chokes me up. Because of all the things I ever wanted to do in my who...
Congratulations Kelly! you have such a great eye for colour & design... love that you're following your heart! I'll be watching :o)

Coloring my world...
I've always been a fan of home decorating. ALWAYS. Since that very first little tiny apartment and the decorator fabric stretched over canvas bars. (wish I had a picture of that. It was pretty darn cute) I think I'm pretty good at it. I tend to be the girl that people ask for advice when they're...
I love Basic Grey, I love mini books, I love National Scrapbooking Day & I love your work! Thanks so much for sharing Lisa!

Give-It-Away Thursday: Basic Grey Album Kit
I'm not a huge mini-album maker, but I've had the chance to work with some of the new Basic Grey journals and they just might convert me! The slightly-larger-than-mini size (7" x 9") means there's more room in these sturdy binders for your photos and memorabilia. And the coordinating insert page...

Hello Spring? Are you out there?
I'm hoping that May means Spring is here to stay. I feel a bit springy in my step, but I am getting a little bit tired snow. Yes, even me. I am impatiently waiting for the apple and cherry blossoms that make the coming of Spring official. Until then, I am painting winter scenes and winter's b...

I am the 99 percent
This is me, yesterday, post run. And during yesterday's run, I felt like one thing and one thing only: a big galoot. I felt like every step was a labor of… well, labor. Every half mile the Nike+ disembodied voice lady would come on to report my progress. 11:49 per mile. 12:02 per mile. I wasn'...

On Frenchies.
Photos by Brian Johnson of Lucky Girl Photography. I've always had big dogs but when our Boxer needed a pal - we opted for something smaller and a little more manageable.That's when we got Norman (the second photo). When our Boxer passed away and my heart was cracked in half - we got Fran...

Slipstreaming.
I am changing how I do things. Here, there and everywhere. Some people might call it streamlining. I call it slipstreaming. Because that sounds so romantic - like a floating down a river in an inner tube. I'm slipstreaming because I need more time to paint. To love this life. To do what fuels ...

My Hometown
Last week a business meeting took me all the way to Seattle, the city that I love and the city in which I was born. It's been over three years since I was last in Washington, so I tacked on a few days in order to spend it in my true hometown, Everett. My best friend, Molly, still lives there w...

Surrounded.
My studio is just right. Oh sure, I used to dream of a NY loft with towering windows and exposed brick, but compared to some of the places I have spent a great deal of time painting in - this is a small dream. It's 700 square feet of space with south, west, and north facing windows. It's j...

Small beauties.
I have small goals today. Get going early. Be focussed. Find your groove. Keep moving. Don't sweat it. Be grateful. Make magic. Find the joy. That's all... Just a bunch of small attainable bites in hopes of creating the perfect storm of a day. The kinds that leaves you exausted + happy. With l...

On wood.
I did this painting last weekend and it's called Orchidée. It was an experiment on a raw board canvas. The size is a cozy 10 x 20 inches and 1.5 inches thick. I feel like I could write a long winding story about what this one represents to me... But she can speak for herself... * Today...
First thought was YOU, because that's just how my brain works! Or my Mom, but alas, she has been gone now for 5 long years... so Naturally it would be My Daughter, because,for me she really is UNCOMMONLY BEAUTIFUL :o)

Uncommonly Beautiful.
"Wildly convinced you're UNCOMMONLY beautiful." That's my friend Karen's line. She wrote those pretty words and then we collaborated to make a gorgeous print that not only lifts your heart - it ups the cool factor in your home, too. You can read more about it here. In celebration of Interna...

The blahs.
I'm feeling pretty awful and instead of blah-blah-blahing about how I'm not feeling so hot - I'm just going to post some random photos from my archives that make me laugh. Like this one. Have a wonderful Wednesday. GO!

3 cheers for Penn.
Happy birthday, middle one. Today is Penn's birthday - the last in our hectic parade of winter birthdays and I am honouring the sweetness we call Penn. She was a scheduled c-section that decided to come early. She was THE SWEETEST, QUIETEST, CALMEST baby. So much so that I forgot her places mo...

I like routine. I like patterns. I like keeping a good thing going when I can. FEBRUARY: To me, you are all about CALM-THE-HECK-DOWN! (Which is funny to me because we're currently on a sunny vacation with toddlers!!) That's what I need. The aqua breathing space. The neutrals. February has a fe...

Lost + found.
I found these two things at the bottom of a beer last night just after I totally LOST IT while I was sewing sequins on paper and trying to get painted stripes to be "perfectly straight, but have character and nuance with perfectly flat starts and finishes with no notice of flow". Riiiiiiight. ...
oh my...I lived in the pool...my cousin would desperately try to suspend her towel between two locker doors so no one would "see" her...I just didn't have those genes... that's not to say I have the "strutting genes" either! Thanks for the laugh Cathy:o)

Call me modest. Call me raised in a time when only the girls of questionable character bore their bare midriffs. Call me no fun. Call me a prude. I'm sorry, but I just can't walk around the womens' locker room naked. I would first like to say to those of you who can and do, more power to you. Se...

In photos.
We had some quick family photos taken at the end of December. And by quick I mean it took 15 minutes. And by photos I mean we're kind of the luckiest people on earth because our rad neighbour is one of the city's best photographers. It's becoming our family tradition. You know - the frantic, l...
