Thanks for the love, Pittsburg Artwalk! Artwalk is always such an exhausting but amazing event. I really should have taken a day off (or at least a half day off) from work - it was a lot to teach kids all day, grab everything, and be set up by 5pm, only to be on my feet and talking to people until 9pm. I was dead tired at the end of the night, but I absolutely love our Pittsburg art community and getting to talk to people about my work in person. Big thanks to my friend Allen for taking some photos of me and my booth before it was time to tear down.

Another great plein air day with friends! Mona and I even ran into our friend Allen, who helped us carry some gear.

Ryan's drawings

My friend Mona, my husband Ryan, and I spent last Sunday plein air painting. It was a beautiful day and a great way to spend a morning. I love the calm of plein air.

Someone I loved once gave me
a box full of darkness.
It took me years to understand
that this, too, was a gift.
