Work Day!

LOOK AT THIS!!! This cute little bulldog was handmade with amazingness by the Lovely, Whendi Meagher. This is an artist I wish I could spend the day with in the studio so i could pick up some tips and tricks!!!

Today Audrey and I will be working on the finishing touches for our show. I was in the studio all morning yesterday finishing as much as I could for her arrival. I felt confidant enough with my progress that I was even able to attend Dans cousins Graduation part where I stuffed myself with these flaky, sugar cookies. It was so bad that I was finding excuses to go inside and secretly stuff my face with more! Audrey and I will also be taking a trip with Dan, Jesse (the owner of 323East)and Camilo (another 323East Artist) to an art Collectors house. He has a giant red Rocking Horse on his front lawn! Should be interesting. I am excited to see the art but I may be more excited that there will be pizza, cheese, olives and wine. ;)

Sad days and Rain...

I'm sorry that I haven't been keeping up on this blog. Somedays it is just so hard.The past 2 weeks have been a rollercoaster ride. I was called in to interview for a position that I have wanted for awhile. I was so excited and happy at the same time. I was even more thrilled that they called me back for the second interview. The day before the second interview my Grandpa passed away. So that really threw a cruve ball at me. But instead of sitting at home or going to see my dad I sucked it up and went to work and continued preparing for my interview. Again even though I was sad I felt I rocked the second interview. But sadly I didn't get the position and I allowed myself to shed a few tears. I think Dan was more upset that I was.;)

This past weekend was the usual sitting at the funeral home, going to my grandmas, going to church, the cemetary.. etc etc. I have never been so drained. Even though I was exhausted I still had to tidy up my house and entertain guests on Fathers day.Thankfully Dan was awesome this weekend and was there with me the whole time.

To top it all off since I have been so bad about keeping on top of things lately, I won't be able to get my dress made. :( It would've only given the dressmaker 2 weeks to make something from scratch. I felt that was unfair. So thankfully I id find something that wasn't as amazing but still great. It was also a lot cheaper too. It's ordered and on it's way!

Sneaky Peek #2

Thanks to my show partner, Audrey, here is another sneak peek for our up coming show, Beautiful Monstrosities.



This is, Betty Rose, in her ribbons and bows....



This creature still doesn't have a title. Usually the titles or names for my animals come to me pretty fast but not so much for this show.
Hopefully while I sleep they will come to life and whisper to me what they want to be called.
