i am VERY EXCITED to announce a workshop that i will be giving in SICILY ! my good friend diva is putting together a slow art retreat on a beautiful island in sicily. i will give a workshop on my approach to sketching and watercolor painting and we will each fill up our own travel sketchbook. NO drawing experience needed. i will prove to you that ANYONE can draw . . . even YOU ! it’s going to be an inspiring week of fun and magic. (you can follow my quick daily sketch practice here).
see the details HERE.

i LOVE old suitcases and totes. i have a huge collection of them that i have picked up at flea markets + antique stores around the world. this one was the perfect size and shape to contain my many tubes of acrylic paints and brushes. i believe it was an old musical instrument case . . . perhaps a clarinet ?

fresno, california
october 2009
i was born and raised in fresno and we still have the same house that we moved into when i was 6. i often take piles of clothes + shoes home that i don’t really want to “get rid” of, but don’t want in my closet here. also, when i go home for a visit, i don’t have to pack much. i found these shoes in my fresno closet that look much better on PAPER than they ever did ON !

i saw this dress in the gala dali castle, which was salvador dali’s last workshop and the mausoleum for his muse, gala. this is one of her dresses. i love the idea of wearing a uniform everyday and if i had to, i would make sure mine was something just like this.
