Off I Go!

"A Porch in Paducah | 8"x10" mixed media on cradled hardboard | 2012 | $300

Hi there! How are you?  Did you have a nice weekend?

I just finished up this piece today. This chair sat on the porch of an art gallery in the Lower Town Arts District in Paducah (The location of my last art fair.)  I shot a photo of this lovely vintage metal chair with my trusty I-Phone.  Metal chairs get me all nostalgic...My grandparents had a pair in kelly green in their yard for ages. I wonder what happened to those?

This is the last piece I'll do for a while as I'm heading to Kenya and Budapest with Matt's family this weekend!!! Though I am excited about this trip, I can't deny that I'm also a little nervous about it. You see Matt is not coming with us as he couldn't get the time away from work. We'll be apart for almost 2.5 weeks and I'll be missing our anniversary (he's never going to let me live this down) and Father's day. We've never been apart this long....I don't know what I am going to do with myself! I know once I get there I'll be just fine. I adore the Johnson clan and we have some incredible experiences ahead of us! I will be sure to share pictures and stories here upon my return. 

While I am away, my etsy shoppe will remain open, but anything purchased will be shipped out after June 26. If there is something that you just can't live without, there's still time! Purchase between now and Wednesday, and I'll ship it to you now, and if you head over to my Facebook Fan Page, you can find a sweet discount code!

Ta-Ta for now.
