My Pup

This is Iso, our little Yorkie. She's my first dog, and like most pet owners, I'm crazy about her. My photographer husband Karl named her after film speed. On the right is an oil portrait that I painted for Karl's birthday last May.

Funny Face

I just bought this poster from the movie Funny Face and framed it in glossy white.

Like so many, I'm a big Audrey Hepburn fan. There are so many great books on her style and grace, but my favorite is Audrey Hepburn, an Elegant Spirit, written by her son Sean. The book includes a moving speech she gave to the UN as a Unicef Goodwill Ambassador. Proceeds from the book go to the Audrey Hepburn Children's Fund.

Well hello.

After a couple years of clicking through gorgeous art and design blogs, I've decided that today is the day to put myself out there. I'd like my blog to be a place to share my creative thoughts and ideas, as well as help my absent-minded self keep track of things. (When I look back on my life so far, I seem to remember more from the journal keeping phases.) I'll be posting little sketches and drawings, photos, and paintings of my own creation. Ill also be posting images from here and there that I find inspiring, happy, and beautiful to stare at. And I hope that through this blog, I can figure myself out just a little. Bit by bit.
