I like: peanut butter and honey sandwiches, wearing hoodies, airports, avocados, driving barefoot, americanos, cherry blossoms, the way you feel the first few hours after an international flight, strong handshakes, people who look you in the eye, homemade things, dresses and cowboy boots, the blue of glaciers, handwritten letters, black and white photographs, quilts, open spaces, the way 'vestibule' and 'Acapulco' sound to say, secrets, 20th hour of a road trip, taking curves on the back of a motorcycle, badmitton, telling the truth, howling dogs, hardwood floors, snowglobes, stargazer lilies, full moons, cliff jumping, winter with a wood stove burning, summer solstices, following inspired thought, the way Alaska smells in the summer, being a woman, the aurora borealis, how the Desert smells in the spring, drum circles, outhouses, spontaneous travel, intuition, people watching from street cafes, re-use it re-cycle platforms, campfire conversation, not wearing a watch, being quiet in the morning, winks and strangers who smile at you, the library, real butter and mountains 360 *

Hi Amy,



Thanks for accepting my request. I have two questions for you: How often do you paint and how long does it usually take you to work on/finish them?

I enjoyed reading about you , and I love all the books you love....oh and peanut butter and honey sandwhiches too, We live down the street from Johnny Cash's first house...(well I have a story to tell about most of the groups you like...me too... not to mention panoramic MT views... And your Paintings, I love them, I love Abstract Landscapes, dreamy, vibrant color, especially your trees!


the Painting you liked of mine  green with squares of copper in the center was my attempt to show community coming together for one cause, connection, to heal the Earth....So You Got it right on!


thanks,


 


Kara

Hi Amy!


How's Alaska today? A cabin huh? What a lucky girl! Did you have a good winter? It's been a few years since I was there. Summer 2004 was my last trip. I sure miss it sometimes. I hope to make it back someday with my family. I know they'll love it there as much as I do. Although, Oscar, our boy (blue heeler) doesn't like the cold much.


The new images are photographs. I had a solo show last summer called the Nine Muses and I was trying to portray them my way with a little artistic portraiture. Thalia's Wonderland seems to be the favorite.


I sure appreciate your patience and time viewing my images with your dial up situation. =) What a pal.

BTW ..Cat Power is going to play in Tempe, Arizona in April..I checked her site to see if she will be touring NJ. She played here last year but I missed it. My fav. cd of hers is a toss up between The Greatest and Myra Lee.

Thanks for the info...when I get some more stuff (paintings) I will contact him.


When i was a scenic painter i used to paint on 4x8 sheets of foamcore and they would ALWAYS curl up....i used to turn them over (after dried) and use a spray bottle to wet the backs of them...put some chairs an them..then the next day..vwalah..they were flat !

also, are you working fast with these ? or using a retarder ? as acrylic tends to dry so quicky..some of them have a watercolor look to them.

hey amy! thank you for taking the time to check out my work. Reflections is an interesting painting to me. Sometimes I like it and sometimes I don't. Do you ever get that way? Anyways, the blue I used was cerelean, cobalt and french ultra marine. But the one that I think you're asking about is the cerelean mixed with titanium white.


I checked out your website and loved it! Where abouts in Alaska were you?
