Tomorrow is Caucus night in Iowa. On one hand, it is a pain in the butt, but on the other it is a very important pain in the butt. At this point in my life, I'm not sure I trust anyone in politics. I like Warren quite a lot though. She seems genuine, and her track history definitely shows she's passionate about protecting those who need protection.
Just about anything is better than Trump. And at this point, unless you are a old rich white guy, you need protection under his regime.
And it is a Regime.
On to less blood pressure altering topics.
I'm actually working on jewelry in the studio!
I'm soooo proud of myself. I know artists are suppose to be all moody an depressed but it's really not my artistic style. I want to be happy in making jewelry and I WANT TO SHARE THAT JOY!! I want my pieces to lift up people. There is so much wrong with the world, I want to send out seeds of peace and happiness and hope they catch and root and grow and spread more seeds. It can all start out with 1 step in the right direction. I made so little art in 2019, despite my new big and wonderful studio. This year I feel so much better, and I think I can share that again.
here's what's on the desk today. The back piece is pewter, I've painted it and aged it, and now I'm positioning real vintage clock and watch parts. Once I'm happy with the layout, I'll start assembling it with rivets and tiny screws. |
It's February and 47 degrees out. All the snow is melting, the sun is out and I've seen a gal walking her dog outside my window wearing biker shorts today.
Did I mention it's February?
Remember to practice kindness, because life is the test.

Regime indeed, especially with some of the new things going on like firing anyone who isn't "loyal"...WTF!?
GRRRR!!! Anyway, I'm with you on Warren. I like her a lot too. But, just about anyone is better than what's currently going on.
And, I'm glad to hear you're feeling well and ready to make more this year. I can't wait to see it!
