Back in the Swing

That's right, i think I'm feeling rested up and ready to post more consistently! This week is going to be a busy one, lots to do, lots to clean and then some wonderful visits with family and friends I am really looking forward to!

For our monday muse I have a few things to share. First, something that has inspired me and continues to inspire me after a lovely email this morning....

The talented Mati Rose (whose name is pronounced Matey which I totally love!) posted a call for an intern on her blog last week which briefly had me thinking...lets move to San Francisco! If timing were better I might actually have really weighed the idea. I love mati's work...check out some here, and I would really love to learn from someone as talented as she is. I thought at least I might send her an email, and tell her how awesome I think it is that she's giving someone that chance. It was sorta scary, but I did. This morning I recieved a reply....and let me just say...Mati is even more lovely than I thought she'd be. She's warm and genuine, and I am so thankful that she even took the time to send sweet words my way. It inspires me to keep painting...to keep writing...to trust the journey. Thanks Mati!

I'm inspired by your latest work. I love the contrast between the sort of lighter, pastel-ish background colors and the very bold black words...it sort of reinforces the "commands" of those words...lol...creative commands. Also wanted to tell you that I'm working at a design team submission....thanks for getting my creative juices going...I was worried they had dried up.
