Spring Mix

The weather this past week has been rather inconsistent, to say the least. Last Sunday we had snow for the first time in two years, and right now it is a beautiful, balmy, 70 degree Sunday afternoon. It makes me want to paint and create and sew a bunch of springy flowery skirts. I love the sunshine! I am so tired of the cloudy gloominess of winter. Although I will be the first to tell you that I love cloudy days, it is always good to have a change.

I have been working on a lot of art projects for other people. I just finished the CD art for Arthur Alligood, an awesome singer songwriter who is releasing a CD on our record label Homemade Genius Productions on April 4th. The art is very mixed media and includes sewing and drawing, two of my favorite media to work with! I am working on some prints that are similar in style to his album artwork.

I'm also completely revamping our non-profit website, HomemadeGenius.org. What once was a simple myspace page will become a completely image based, rollover, flash driven website! We are going to have free mp3 downloads from all of our artists, podcasts, blogs, and an events calendar to name a few new goodies.

Here is a little painting for you:
