OBAMANOS

"Good god almighty this stuff ain't real...."- from Bob Dylan's last thoughts on Woodie Guthrie. But it's true. Woodie Guthrie is in the grand canyon at sundown and Barack Obama is President.

He had music and poetry at his inauguration. He had Shepard Fairey create his official poster. Shepard Fairey. The street artist that has been arrested 14 times for public displays of art. I know things will be better for the arts. and well for everyone.



If Obama says he is humbled then I am speechless.

itsy bitsy start to Etsy!

It's a new year and it's already started as a fabulous one. I just see many crafty experiences in our future. I've been painting, bracelet making, drawing, doodling, and now etsy-ing! Is that a new word? For those that don't know etsy, please check it out. There is so much amazing home made stuff on there. It has to be hand made or 20 years + old for you to sell on etsy. And now I'm there. yippppeeeee!
