WOW! 2009 is off to an incredible start. Ron and I manage to pack more activities, phone calls, clients, and creations into a day than we previously thought possible. We've been in this
super drive mode for about 5 months now (hence the fewer and fewer blog posts), and what initially felt like a fleeting level of business is clearly now the New Normal!
Granted, we both love it and life is, indeed, beautiful! And yes, we do occasionally, usually well after midnight, unplug, watch a bit of TV and then hit the hay.
We installed a new exhibit last week, got up a new website, and re-opened the
Easton Gallery space as MERCANTILE HOME! Check it out at www.mercantilehome.com
The space has finally come into it's own, and we had an amazing opening on Saturday 2/7. Great people, love all around! Our camera's battery died when we were trying to get installation pics of the show, but I'll take more and post some in the next few days.
Ron's been in NYC the past two days, but he
gets back to
Easton this evening.
YAY!
I'm going to try to some how incorporate the blog into my
daily routine. Actually, I'm trying very hard to
develop some sort of routine so that work and play can have there respective places. When everything you do is enjoyable, it
gets really hard to turn it all off! I think rising at 6am and in bed by 10pm is in the not too distant future. I'm approaching 30 years old, and the 20-something lifestyle is on its way out!
Much love and peace.
It's SEED TIME again, and boy am I ready. I began the 10 week process of starting my flowers and vegetables for the garden indoors, in our basement. I got my cabbage, snapdragons, violas, tomatoes, and a few other things planted today. I can not wait for spring...Grow baby, GROW!
We rearranged some furniture getting the house back in order after the shortfilm was shot here, and as a result, opened up this huge wall in the living room. So, we decided to salon hang a whole bunch of our art, and WOW, did it make the room feel so much bigger!
Had a great studio visit this afternoon with Matt Nixon, an artist who lives in Easton that is going to be in the "ILLUMINATE" exhibit this summer. Here are two "works in progress" that are about 24 x 36 inches, acrylic on paper (that then get trimmed and mounted to wood once he's done). There were a ton of great things in the works in Matt's studio, and I can't wait to see him again in April!!
