May Flowers!!

This photo is SOOO over due!!! The day it arrived in my mail box I RIPPED it open and hung it our kitchen, so I could get a good photo…..and stayed there, unphotographed. The house we’re in is on the market, so it’s added another level of busy around here. A few times I thought I should pull it down to hang it in the sweatshop, but that never happened either.

My friend Lee–you quilters know her over at “Freshly Pieced” –if you quilt and don’t follow her blog, go ahead and stab your self in the hand with your quilting needle. You deserve it. OR….you can take the LESS dramatic, less self destructive approach and get your butt over there and check out her AMAZING AMAZING creativity and sewing skills!!! Lee sent this BEAUTY to me as a “Thank You!” WHAT???? It was one of those gifts where when I opened it, I immediately felt like I should go splurge at the fabric shop to send HER a “thank you” for her thank you gift.

EEEEEEEEEEEEEKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I was pretty shocked to get an acceptance to Tisch (NYU’s Art School) this summer!! I applied honestly thinking I didn’t have much of a chance getting in and didn’t have any clear concept of what I wanted to study. When I had to look at all of the course offerings I was COMPLETELY overwhelmed!!! I finally decided that I was going to spend my summer learning digital editing and effects (TV & Film). I REALLY wanted to take a Documentary Course, but it’s a 6 credit course from 9AM-6PM every day of the week. I’m not ready to spend that much time away (plus commute and homework) away from the family. Especially not SO soon after getting to a new place.

So far Avid has been really intuitive, so hopefully I’ll have some fun material to show you as the summer progresses!!!!!

I’m still plugging away on the Psychology of the Spectrum project.

 

 

 

Four

I’ve been marinating in all of the happy feelings that come with watching your child turn a year older.

We had a “Fancy Nancy Unicorn Tea Party.”  

The girls got to style their hats and place settings with tons of flowers, gems and there were enough boas, dress up jewelry, make up and tulle to choke a drag queen.

The Psychology of the Spectrum

I’ve been pretty MIA around here, I know. As usually there’s a ton going on here and the roller coaster of life doesn’t seem to stop providing thrills. Ups and downs. As my children get older (we have a birthday right around the corner!!) I have been considering what on earth I want to do with myself . I also have a firm state of mind that I don’t want have any more regrets in my choices, if I can help it!!! I don’t want to have regrets about who I give my time to. I don’t want to have regrets about how I spent my time. What better place to live out those life dreams than in NEW YORK!!!!!!!!!

ALTHOUGH I shouldn’t be sharing these images AT ALL!!!! I just CAN’T HELP IT!!!!! These images, as well as a TON of others are going into a coffee table book about the psychology of colors!! Having a master degree in mental health, I was magnetized to this project  and drooled all over it, claiming it as my own : ) !!!!

I still don’t know what images will be in the books  but hopefully the models and I will 1) LOVE the outcome and the choice of photos and 2) (Let’s just be honest) make some cash LOL!!!!!  None of these images are final images (which is why I feel like it might be a little bit OK to share a sneak peak hee hee!!!).

Seriously though, What an AMAZING AMAZING project to be a part of!!!!!!!
