In 2011 I am framing my art work… ALL OF IT! It’s fun. I love framing… the perfect edges, alignment, tools, attend to detail and then you get to hang it, anywhere you please and people see it and people love it. It’s pretty awesome. I’m framing and hanging Reflections #2 and Le Afro – they are both paper lithography prints created in 2008 at Pratt Fine Arts Center‘s printmaking studio. Reflections #2 is complete and currently hanging beautifully in my living room. Le Afro is framed as well but I’m considering sending it to my mother for her birthday June 11, since the piece was based on a photograph of her with an actual bright red afro in the early 70s. (Mom, if you’re reading this, ignore that last sentence.)

Vision Board 2010!
Okay, so back in December right after Christmas, my BFF and I stole away to a resort in Indiana on my long trip home and worked on vision boards, 2010 plans, and had some much needed spa time. Our vision boards consisted of everything we want to manifest for ourselves this year 2010! I’d read something online out outlining your body and I am not sure if it was for vision board purposes but I thought, “Awesome idea!” and me and my BFF proceeded to get long rolls of Kraft paper and a magic marker to add to our collage efforts. We both outline each other, all 5 feet 7 inches of ourselves – doubled and started to cut and paste in our hearts desires.
Now fast forward to February 5, 2010… my vision board was too large to fit on my walls or door as I had originally intended so I cut my collage self into bits and am working on finding enough frames to fit all my pieces into. I’ll keep you posted on that…
My inspirato is walls of frames and pics and mirrors. Back in 2006 I had a wall of mirrors to die for! I think we had about 17 different mirrors on our wall – it was awesome! I’ll have to dig up a picture to share. Anyways, see below for some cute shots of inspirato I’ve been collecting…
