Innerspace

"Innerspace" Oil on canvas, 30"x48", $2000

Finally I have gone back into the studio. It was easy when it was raining last week
but it was sunny and perfect for election day. With winter on its way the studio holds
very little appeal on sunny days. I did finish a painting though.

Carol Wiebe of the blog Silver Spring Studio did a fabulous feature on me.
It was a total surprise. You never know what you are going to find when you open
your email. Check out her blog but also go to her website and look at her lovely art,
she makes cracked paper quilts (which I know nothing about, but find intriguing).

Innerspace is a faculous painting Katherine. I have seen some of Carol's work when she attended a workshop at our art school this past year. It is intriguing and very lovely work. She did a very nice tribute to you and your work.

I really like where you took this painting, Katherine...luminous and emotional.

Nice article by Carol.

Don how nice to hear from you! Thank you for going to Carol's blog and reading her write up. It was quite a surprise for me. I see a dog and a rabbit in this one, in that way it reminds me of Chasing Stars. But I didn't have any rabbit in the studio with me.

It's a wonderful painting Katherine. I love your patterns, colors and depths a lot.

Sweet greetz!

Momo Luna thank you for the feedback and the visit. I love hearing from you.

A dog can resemble a rabbit, if you see one out of the corner of your eye.

Don One pill makes you larger, one pill makes you small, but the one that mother gives doesn't do anything at all.

How kind of you to say these things about me, Katherine!

I was simply responding to the power of your work, and your philosophy, out of which it comes.

Having met women like Jeane Myers, Sharon Barfoot, Diane Kramer, and having witnessed the words and images that artists such as yourself and Mary Anne Wakeley produce, there has been an exponential increase in my own longing to create work that matters. Work that speaks to others at such a deep level. That is my goal, and I am indebted to your example.

Thank YOU Carol!
