Often I wake up with a vision and I begin to look at it closer asking questions that take my thoughts deeper, feelings of joy and gratitude. I look forward to being in my studio, setting my paints out and seeing the images emerge onto my canvas.

Street Art: April 2020

I hope all are well and able to deal with the need for distancing, stay at home and isolation during this unusual time. From deep cleaning and reorganizing tasks to getting out but staying close to home, we are all learning a different and much needed grounding to just be, be with your own self and close family members.
Recently I took to the streets! Well, I took my chalks to the road outside our home. I drew a large Ancestral reindeer and a cave bear. Then I laid on the road next to these creations while my husband stood on a ladder and took photos. It was a delight to be in the drawing with the Ancestral animals that inspire my work. Then, neighbors came by...and they took turns taking photos of the art work and in some cases, adding their children into the art as if they too were riding an ancient reindeer and a cave bear. What a wonderful change of pace! And a way to share with our neighbors...at a distance of course! Challenge: Create art with giant chalk drawing and place yourself or family member as part of the scene! Share your photos! I’d love to see what captures the imagination! Enjoy! Jennifer
