Wicked Wednesday

Shaughan bought me a new car on Monday yes it is this black 300xz. It's in Auckland, I think we are going to go and get in this week? I can't wait!

I took Ralph into the vet yesterday and he had to be put under again to get the tube removed from his ear. He wouldn't let the vet pull it out and was getting really grumpy. So it was another quite day for him yesterday. Poor little man.

My cousin is coming over today which I'm looking forward to, she is living in Brisbane now so I don't get to see her much, mind you we chat heaps through facebook. I read an article on facebook and they were going on about how bad it was but I think that's crap! I have caught up with heaps of people that I wouldn't have bumped into in the streets of Wanganui!

I have been buzzing around the house getting it ready for the Open Studios. I have taken all the art done by other artists down and hung my work in themes and written little blurbs for them.
I figured that I'm not going to be able to talk to everyone that walks in, so I decided to give them a hand out so they can understand where I am and what I was up to in my life when I painted my paintings. Most of them aren't for sale because my paintings are like photos of my life but I only having one copy, the original. Maybe this year I can look into getting prints done and sell them? I have decided to have a photo wall and sell those and take on some commissions as I love painting for other people. When I was at hairdressing college I had a good clientele because I used to listen to what they wanted and gave it to them.

I don't know what it is about this building but we had the fire truck here yesterday because the guy testing the alarm pushed the wrong button. I can't believe how much stuff happens outside our window. The other day we had a 14 year old kids swinging a machete at another kid on the wharf. I'm so over those kids that hang out down there they are horrible they always ask you if you have money or smokes and then start swearing at you. It's not cool! Shaughan tells them to pull their head. I just hope that no one gets hurt. They caught a pigeon the other day and I made Shaughan tell them to leave it alone and bugger off. I wonder if their parents know what they are up to? I know the police do because the printer guys have rung them 6 times about these kids.

I have an exhibition that I'm going to pop some work in next week but I'm not sure what to put in yet. It's about fashion and design, right up my alley. I'm excited!

I gave my resignation as a trustee on the open studios board last week as it was taking up to much of my energy. When I closed the gallery I wanted to concentrate on me, my family, friends, my art and music and it just didn't fit in. I hope that what I bought to the trust helped them and I'm sure the event will be a fantastic! This year they have the biggest amount of artists involved and I'm sure the town will be pumping over the 2 weekends and it will be the best one yet! This is the 5th one that I'm involved in and I'm looking forward to it. It's the first time that I have had this long to get ready for it.

My message for the day was: You are supported with the same energy that holds the planets in the sky. If God can support the huge planet Jupiter, He can certainly do the same for you.


Have a beautiful day!

Good-Bye Summer Family Ritual

For the past week I have been feeling the shift of seasons from summer into autumn. This has motivated me to c lean out closets, freshening up our home, make this summer photo collage, and created a family ritual. I find ritual really powerful it allows you the time to honour what has come before, say goodbye, and create intentions for what will come next. I've been poking around the internet and have found interesting articles on family summer rituals. Here are some of the suggestions I have read… Summertime is full of outdoor pursuits, so adding the outdoors into your ritual fits perfectly. Preserve summer fruits for the chilly months ahead. Engage in cooking or baking with summer ingredients. Shared a meal of seasonal food. Press summer flowers or herbs in books. Create a memory book of the past summer with photographs, ticket stubs, memorabilia, quotes, family jokes, poem, or anything else that reminds the family of fun times. Create a summer nature journal, detailing a

I'm really enjoying blogging again, it's been years since I have written everyday. I used to do morning pages before I got pregnant, I have heaps of books full of my dribble. The Artist Way by Julia Cameron  got me into the morning pages! Every artist should own a copy of that book!  I was talking to a friend yesterday and she wanted me to order her a box of encaustic wax. I haven't done any encasutic for such a long time, so today was the day to dust off the cobwebs and get melting.  Here are my 2 creations for the day...
