Busy Week and a (non-Art) Announcement

Aug 14, 2010 Special Bulletins

I have to apologize for the short hiatus. I have had an extremely busy week and haven’t been able to post anything new.

My big announcement is that my boyfriend and I got engaged a couple weeks ago. We are really excited and have spent the last week nailing down a date and trying to line up a venue and catering. Thanks to my family, this has been a relatively painless process. I am completely clueless when it comes to event planning and all the little details are overwhelming!

I’ve also been teaching a mixed media workshop for kids. That was a learning process! The kids flew through things I thought would take a long time and took their time on what I thought would be quick projects. Each day I had to have several things planned, plus a few extras just in case. All in all it went well and the kids enjoyed it. It was a lot more challenging than I’d anticipated, but I’d do it again in a heartbeat!

My other news from this week is that I had another critique with my old prof. I was able to get some feedback on my recent abstract work and most of it was good! Thanks to this prof, I will be having a solo exhibition in September to showcase my new paintings at the UBCO Fine Art Gallery.

Regular posts will resume tomorrow, so please hang in there just one mor day!
