Familiar

For those of you following my artwork, you can continue to login to www.cozyhatgirl.com. A new addition to the sight is that you may now sign up. When you do that, I will be able to contact you if I ever have a show or start to offer prints for sale. I don't see that happening for a while... maybe a couple more months or so.

For the last several days, I've been working on some new pieces; one painting, "Familial", was more illustrative in nature, something you might find on the cover of a magazine or for marketing, etc.The other two are well within the genre and themes that are personal to me. These themes usually involve a potion of spirituality, relationships and nature. Here they are:

Today has been most excellent, a day of nestling in with my husband and two little boys. Alex Cuba, an excellent musical artist i found at serenitylife's blog, played on the Itunes and we sipped our morning coffees, which turned into afternoon coffees. Lucas is now pulling himself up to standing at 10 months. Below, you can see him helping himself to some California Cutie oranges. Jas, at 3 1/2, is our perpetual funny man; always sees the funny side of things. I like that so much. Sometimes, I swear my sons are shape shifters. They turn this way, I see my father. They turn that way, I see my husband's smile. They encompass so many familiar expressions... expressions much older than them. Last night, we watched a quirky, yet strangely poignant little film called "Thumbsucker". Tonight, I'm wishing we had a bottle of wine to sip, but perhaps it is just as well to tuck in with my favorite roisbois tea. I'm taking any suggestions on the best roisbois, by the way. I am a tea-hound. Big time. And now, I am off to spend some time with my darling guy. Thank you to all who pop in to see me and check out what's happening around here.
