The Weekly Skirt Report

Good AM!

Hopefully you are having a good January...
Things here have been different, dealing with a client shift that was hard to take to the weather to what to do with my art sitting around the house.

Art is collecting dust. Do I sell it cheaply? Keep it I can find the right buyer? Or give it away?

Do I join various clubs to get more involved? I dunno I am not much of a club person. Mickey Mouse Club perhaps.

So here's the deal: one of my volunteer jobs is to help out this Louisiana based, community run group called Voice of The Wetlands. It was founded by musician Tab Benoit to bring attention and focus to the eroding land. This has been around for about 10 years and now they are gearing up to yell a little louder. So please check out their site: http://www.voiceofthewetlands.org/
and maybe you will want to help out.

So in the meantime, I will go wash my hair...

The Weekly Skirt Report!

First things first... it's cold. It makes me sleep a lot.

My pals Royal Southern Brotherhood will be on the road come end of January thru March I hope you all can get out and see them!

Then new consignment shop TO ME that is: is Alexis Suitcase located on Peachtree Rd. Love my new Freshpeople pants for 1/8 of the price. They have three locations: Sandy Springs and Johns Creek along with Buckhead. Way hot shoes and clothes and very upscale...

new old album: is Mike Farris' Live at the Cumberland - it's live with the Cumberland Saints. Gospel at its best. 

Thought of the day goes along with Fleetwood Mac's "Don't Stop" song... 

Have a good one and keep warm! 

The Weekly Skirt Report!

This week has been a hard one both mentally and emotionally. But we are seeing the light at the end of the tunnel VERY soon.

So this week I am posting an article to read about knowing when to stop and start paintings. Or anything artistic and have it be presentable or ready to see by the public and not be hurried. And somehow this article can be related to life in general.

Patience is a learned thing not a virtue and it's got to be practiced all the time... So take a minute to read over this and maybe learn a few things from it for your next studio time.

Then one of my FAVES right now - Devon Allman is hitting the road for about 2 weeks so if you see a date near you - catch him live - very cool guy! Talented beyond measure!

So til next time! Hope you all are behaving for Christmas is around the corner!
