Pebble and Bird Discuss
Lululemon Athletica
If you haven't been to Lulu you really must go. They are a top-quality athletic clothing store offering excellent free fitness classes by hosting a different studio each month.
My favorite is Yoga on Saturday mornings but my husband prefers Boot Camp on Sundays.
Maybe I'll see you there!
2313 West 50th Street, Minneapolis
Anodyne
Here are a few photos of my artwork currently enjoying Anodyne Coffeehouse. The Anodyne waffles are my personal favorite but the service is also sublime.
You can indulge too at 4301 Nicollet Avenue South, Minneapolis.
Etsy Shop; NOW OPEN!

Livingroom Art
Commissioned Bird Cage
I was asked to paint a sleeping bird to nest in this Pagoda Bird Cage; I ended up painting a series of sleeping birdies. This is the yellow guy. It should be noted that the birds only sleep in the cage. All of the birds I painted are sleeping and so they are happy to be under a roof and out of the cold. When they wake up they will of course fly free.
The Magic Red Pebble
With this piece I am excited to take my art in a new direction. It might be the start of a series of magic red pebble paintings that maybe, just maybe, could tell the story of the red pebble through an abstract perspective that is completely subject to the imagination of the viewer.
I'll say it again; I'm excited.

Homemade Kitty Bed
I made this kitty bed from a coffee bean bag and a scrap of t-shirt cloth. Using a sewing machine I attached the two pieces together, filled it with batting and then sewed it closed. With thread I hand stitched around the corners and through the bottom to hold it in place. It was very simple and an excellent reuse project! As you can see my cat LOVES it!
Just laying her makes her SO SLEEPY!
I tried to take a photo while she was off doing something else.
But before I could take very many she came back and claimed the spot!
PRRRRRRRRRRR...
