Spoons

Collecting spoons

What's a girl to do when she's preparing for a show and has some new paintings?  I call up websites to look at framing choices, and my eyes go around and around with confusion.    Today I called Frankenframes and spoke to Roger, thank you Roger, you gave me so much information AND you are sending me a sample packet of frames so that I can see what my paintings will look like inside the frame.
The samples should be here early next week.  If you have questions about framing some of your art, please feel free to come and look or borrow.  Here is one of the new paintings.  This is 8x8 of collectable spoons, painted in oil.

Buttons and just for fun spoons

I have been exploring button options for my blog and web page.  This is like walking thru sink sand off the Island.  After a while you just lay your body out to distribute the weight and crawl to firmer ground. The big question:  How far away is that firmer ground or in this case, will the information penetrate my brain when I get there.  Today, I have had minor success and here is how it happened from a true lay persons point of view.  By that I mean someone who speaks no geek and can be understood by a five year old.

This is what I did!
I've been trying to add a pinterest button to this blog.  I honestly don't know how this happened; I read and reread, watched a video on youtube and it all sounded like gibberish because I couldn't find the about button on my pinterest page.   So I went back to the page on pinterest where it says where I am from and found symbols that look like this <> with a pencil, clicked on it and up popped a window with "THE CODE".  I copied the code, went back to this page and there it was.  Magic!



Here are some spoons that I have collected and spent last night drawing.  They may show up as a painting.  See if you can pin it!
