Exciting news to share!

My work has been featured as the cover art of the Korean translation edition of Hakubutsu / Le Boudhha Blanc by Japanese writer Tsuji Hitonari.  In 1999 Le Boudhha Blanc won the French Literary prize Prix Femina Etranger.

Although I am unable to read the language, the publisher was kind enough to offer these words on the subject of the book “It philosophically reflects life and death, war and peace”. The book is extraordinarily beautiful and I am thrilled to be a part of the newest publication.

I hope all is well with all of my friends here. I hope those whom are artists themselves are forging ahead with their creative journeys!  I have been pedaling along myself. I am happy to say that I don't feel quite as overwhelmed so much anymore. Maybe it's because my youngest is leaving the 'baby' stage. Not that the terrible two's have been a walk in the park, but it has somehow changed and is in many ways easier. I have stopped stretching and squeezing and forcing my art time in. I don't think it happened so much as a conscious decision, more just happened on it's own which I am grateful for.  

I have been moving ahead with some exciting projects lately. There is actually second book that is currently in print that will feature my work as the cover art too, which is exciting! Been working on some neat pieces in between and just handling the daily business of my Etsy shop.

Time to run and wake up my youngest one. Did I really just let her nap until 5pm?? I did, and I am going to pay. for. it. tonight :) :)
