Begin Within

Pindroh's polymer Begin Within plaqueThis 12″ polymer illustration by Paula Pindroh will hang in my studio and it’s a perfect bit of post-conference wisdom. With all those new tools and techniques swirling in my head, this plaque reminds me to gently tune out the noise and listen to my heart.

I feel great about shopping at Trader Joe’s knowing that the store hires people like Paula to create their weekly signage.

Short and sweet post today while I deal with the heaps of email and laundry.

The gallery that I am part owner of hosts a show each year called “The Artists of Trader Joes” and it is our best attended show every year. The artists they employ are simply awesome!
