Running with the corset theme…makes it easier to get into creative mode…when have an idea in my head ahead of time…I had to do two takes on this one…as feeling rushed…
Time for those New Year’s Resolutions…at first created the usual laundry list…work out…eat right…drink less…increase the fun factor…in all honesty these work for the first initial weeks…and then bam…back to the old habits…so this year…I am going to focus on one word…love…everything I do this year…will be to bring more love into my life…so what would a blueprint for love look like…obviously have to be open to receive…surround self with like minded positive loving friends…do more activities that elicit heightened response creating attraction…compassion…abundance…thus increasing the love threshold…simple things…look into other’s eyes in public…eliminate draining relationships…say no…time is valuable…meet someone new everyday…bring an unexpected friend a gift…shine anyways…2008 is the year for love.

Forgive me for forgoing the painting today…my head needs a rest…today’s existential chiropractic session…a breakthrough session for me…punches…jabs…thrown at me from every angle…one or two will get to me…break me down…really sting…forget it….I am doomed…nonetheless I welcome the punches…as a fighter does…each punch making the fighter stronger…the key…shield the punches…harness the power…energy…wisdom…consciousness…whatever the fuck it […]

Everything is just a hook up…cinderella has a crush on a guy…break down the fairy tale love…we are all looking for the next best thing…the weekend is here…I feel good…on a roll creating some fantastic artsy stuff…increases my sense of self…my ego self is driven by fear, looking good to others, the need to control and be safe….my higher self is creative, wise, loving, intuitive, sensitive, connects with all. Be still.

I don’t really feel like talking politics these days…thus compelled to take a moment to mourn the deep sorrow for the world concerning the tragic assassination of Benazir Bhutto…very sad…she sacrificed her life for democracy and peace. I am working on some upgrades to my blog and online gallery…I had an inspiring talk with a friend…he reminded me quitting my job was the best thing I did for my art…my kids…and my self. Thus I am recharged to make this work…as it is my passion…and can’t imagine doing anything else. (ink, watercolor, and graphite)

Ooh la la…I just love this sweet sketch…seems very French to me…still dreaming of spending time in Paris…lavishing in all the lushness I can lick up…not feeling an ounce of guilt. Personally think corsets are gorgeous…the sexy vintage look it gives women…don’t get me wrong…I like my curves…happy women do not wear these today to hide their natural state…however along the “symbolic” lines of corsets…some may think they hold a standard which is unrealistic and fake…I think they are simply hot…gorgeous…fun. (graphite, ink, and watercolor)

I feel like one big hormonal wet dream…a phase of a woman coming into her sexual prime…and as much as I am enjoying the attention…I need to refocus on my art. My blog has seen a surge in hits recently…I am not a blogger who is obsessed with checking the stats…I set aside time in the morning for blog maintenance, stats, and updates…after my post is completed…I do not go back to the blog… hardwork…determination…showing up daily…and a little humor are the secrets to maintain a successful blog. I have been doing a series of scribbly sketches…yesterday did four…this is one of them (graphite, ink and watercolor)

These are the delicate snowflakes painted by Maelley…part of my Christmas present from her. Callan made the sweetest ornament for the tree. I cherish the homemade mom gifts the most. My friend called from Miami to wish us Merry Christmas. She said referring to me, “I am so irresistible right now”…just think that is the nicest compliment to give me. During our telephone brainstorm session…tried to convince her to move to Vermont to partner in my business venture…visions of selling wine….cheese…chocolate…and art…homemade cheeses and chocolates of course…very classy and decadent in the French sense of the word. She is actually contemplating moving to Vermont…I love it when I convince friends to do spontaneous things…I love risk takers even more…still working through this phase of creating the perfect life for myself…barely breathing…thinking it over…life is too short to pass by…make it happen…this is your one life…atleast that you know of…love better…laugh higher…dream of peace…merry christmas…

when I was little I thought that if I was good…people would not get hurt…the relevance of this is inessential…we have varying degrees of intimacy in our interactions with each other…enthusiasm and seeing the greatness in everything…I am off to buy goodies for the kids stockings.

Believe me…I have been doing a graphite sketch a day in my sketchbook…my only explanation for not posting is this quote from Picasso. “The artist goes through states of fullness and emptiness, and that is all there is to the mystery of art.” I am missing the kids…dreaming of sex with a man and a woman…listening to classical music…completely relaxed…about to fall asleep on the couch.

Yes…my holiday cards are coming…will be late…love it that my friends are calling to question the whereabouts of my cards…the girl who used to have her cards completed around Thanksgiving…where did she go…the new Christine…does not get hung up on those finite details…you will still get a thoughtful Christine family card…with the same beautiful detail as years past…hope I can still be included in the running for this season’s best Christmas card…so here is a glimpse of what you have to look forward to…peace to all…
