The Artist’s Art of Observation
All Creators are First Observers We don’t get the urge to tell stories until we’ve first been told stories. Whether it was our mother or grandmother, teacher or sibling, babysitter or friend, weaving a tale of her own, or reading to us from a fabulous book. The 500 Hats of Bartholomew Cubbins, or Hop on Pop or the television set, we saw or heard or read stories. We loved stories. And so we gave birth to the desire to tell stories ourselves. From the very first urge, art begin

Friday the 13th-It’s A Feminist Holiday!
It’s big, it’s bad, it’s scary…it’s Friday the 13th! This year, there are three times when this dreaded calendar combination occurs, and this year, (of all years, right?) they fall 13 weeks apart. Or so I read in this cool article here. And while this piece gives lots and lots of possible history and folklore to (maybe) explain why this date got such a bad rep, the thing they keep coming back to is the same conclusion I’ve long since reached. It’s about women. Stay with me
