Wizened and Natal

What does that mean anyway?
I'm a wise woman a nice crone wizened by life. What a life it's been rich with love, friends, travel, excitement and interesting experiences. My talents are honed and sharpened after much use and experience. Oh Baby! Now I understand the cliché "youth is wasted on the young." Still in spite of my gray hair I remain young at heart anticipating each new day and the chance we’re given to do it over again. Perhaps that’s what Natal means every day is new like a new baby a clean slate, natal, another chance to live this enigma we call life. Or is Natal a place like a state of mind? hummmmmmm

I've been so busy lately painting it's like a job! only it's a job that I love, love, love. Here is another one of my encaustic paintings. I'm really on a roll and almost don't want to stop and have some fun at the Girdwood Forest Fair this weekend. I will be at the GCVA booth on Friday night and at the gallery Saturday and Sunday. It's the 4th of July and I plan to party Satruday night.

My schedule is getting full this summer with the Garden and Art show at the fairgrounds on the 11th, a mini show in Girdwood from the 15th to 31st, my show at Madd Matters; August 8th Wizened and Natal, (the name is kinda wierd) so lets hope that I make some $$$$$ this summer. btw I have lost 21 pounds.
