I just made all of the prints in my shop 19 bucks, kids! They were 24, so get 'em while they're smokin'.
The sale is running through the 28th of the month. The only catch is that I'm leaving town, so orders will have to be shipped when I return to work on Tuesday, June 30th. Can you dig it? I also marked the Heron piece (GRACE) down from 110 to 85 because it is a lonely Heron. And Great. But really because it was created on 7/8" board and I've sold all of it's friends done on this size and have moved on to 1 5/8". Did I mention she's lonely? And Blue.
Summer Solstice is on Sunday, falling right on Father's Day this year which I think is so appropriate. It's a wonderful time to have a feast and honor the Sun gods in our lives and in the sky. We'll be celebrating from temperate Escondido, where I will perform You Are My Sunshine ad nauseaum to the five male children we'll be keeping company with! Langley, Luke, Jordan, Blake and Miles, get your noise cancellation headphones ready, dudes.
I finished a piece tonite which I am glad about-the color story having unfolded in my little hypnagogic euphoria (who needs drugs?) each time I went in (or rolled over) to nurse Ivy the past few nights. I love when fashion sees to it that there is plenty of citron on the market. Bring on the chartreuse and all of its friends, but leave the lemongrassishness for me. I love summer for this reason, because that is perhaps the only time one can find a proper citron colored tee shirt, which my greenish skin seems to dig. I long to snag a Treasury spot on Etsy so I can list all of my favorite goodies that are this color.
Harmony, mixed-media on 6"x6" birch board. Prints here!
Deer bridges the gap between domestic and wild. He lures us to exciting new quests. Because Deer is known for gentleness, he reminds us to be in peaceful communion with ourselves as we embark upon a new aspect of the journey. Growth with Deer is about seeking harmony with ourselves and our environment; about allowing mistakes, as we wander the forest of our inner creative process. Deer medicine suits those who tend toward self-criticism or harshness with others. His is a call to healthy communication and compassion. Deer is a very important ally when fear would keep one from adventure.
It's a little different from the others. I had fun with the whacked perspective. It looks a bit pinky in this scan. It is much more...vanilla in person. I must find a way to adjust that!
I want to give a shout out to all of the goldfishies out there that have stopped by or emailed, I'm so enjoying all of this classroom community!
Happy Father's Day to all of the amazing daddies out there and Happy Solstice to all of us savages! Have a wonderful longest-day-of-the-year!
