yes... What have I been up to? Well.... aside from shuttling my kids to and from sleepovers, playdates, pools, beaches and other summer pastimes, I have prepared for and spent the day showing my art at the Chappaqua farmers market Art Under the Bridge with
Northern Westchester Artists Guild. That was a fun if hot day, I met tons of new people and even sold some art!
I have been doing a bit of hand stitching on an artwork that has really been lounging around unfinished for way to long. And will probably lounge around a bit longer.
I've been organizing my studio and office. That's hard to really get into as first I need to make a bigger mess and that's a bit of a problem with guests in and out of the house.
And I have been working on a rather large artwork. It's going in fits and starts, but it's going.

I started with a sketch, let's call it Crosswalk for now |

I added sky. These are strips of various plastic shopping bags from the blue color family. |

Then I started making buildings in pinks and oranges. |

And this is where it has been for a week now, waiting me to start on the church and the sign. |
Maybe next week I'll have an update where all the blanks will be filled in. A girl can dream...
