i was blessed by the presence of dear beloveds, Lance and Wendy, Shelly , Dustin, and Joe...and of course, my two loves...Tobi and Michael....
Tobi and i sported the Dia de los Muertos prints i had made...i safety pinned them to our jackets...and i wore my shoes i had painted as well...along with my favorite paper bead necklaces...i love those things....
Kiddo was so funny about showing his print on his shirt off that he kept turning his back to people to start a conversation and tell them about "his mom's work." too funny....
The show itself was amazing...i love Dia de Lose Muertos....i love the ideas surrounding it and everything that it entails....
another good note: i was invited by Jose Vargas to be a part of the Dia De los Muertos show at the Ice House Cultural Center. This is an honor to me...to be asked to be a aprt of a show based on him seeing my work at the bath house...how cool is that? The funny thing is that i had been wanting to be involved there as well...serendipity...serendipity....
So, i will be working up a painting tonight and trying to figure out my schedule and when i can get it there....hopefully this is a sign of good things to come for me in the art work...i feel really great about it...encouraged...full of hope....happy...alive...again...

you are invited!
I just went and finished hanging my D.O.D installation at the Bath House Cultural center. Apprently there will be over 90 artists represented and the reception is 'THE PLACE TO BE'...i had no idea...i have never gone to this event. But i was told by a very nice and talented artist, Kathy, that the house will be packed. She also informed that local t.v. stations will come and televise the show and that schools will bring groups of children through while the show is up..not the night of the reception...
So, if you are in Dallas next weekend, i highly recommend the DADA gallery walk and attending the Dia de los Muertos recetion at the Bath House Cultural center...
