Hello, friends! Here's a little bit about life right now:
What are you listening to?
I've been binging the podcast: Planet Money. They manage to explain everything in the world through the lens of money. It's fascinating, educational, and gets my brain spinning!
What are you wearing?
Ripped jeans. But not on purpose…had a little accident while I was on the road! Lucky for me, I packed more than one pair of pants! (Also living in the lace up boots you see in the photo — they're from Target.)
What have you bought?
Two pieces from an artist I follow in instagram named Jenny Pope. I ran across her in real life at her booth at a craft fair!
She does the amazing prints you see above. They're reduction prints and I think they're fantastic! Lucky for me, she had some unframed prints and so I was able to afford two!
What are you reading?
Fascinating article from the New York Times about dementia patients and art museums. Art has so much to give. Read it!!
And, on a personal note, there's a very nice article about my Dad in the New Yorker. You can read it here.
Who are you stalking…er, admiring from afar?
Lynn Giunta makes really simple and yet complex collages. I love her text work in particular.
Where are you going?
NOWHERE! That's right! After sleeping in my own bed for about 5 nights this month, I'm staying home for the month of April! Wahooooooo!
So, there you have it! That's the scoop on life around here at the moment. If you'd like more behind-the-scenes real life fun, you can always check out my vlog. I post a new vlog to my YouTube channel every Wednesday!
Thanks for stopping by!
What a great article about your Dad! He must have been such an interesting man to know. He was obviously well loved and respected by many. It is obvious where you get your creativity and curiosity from! Thanks for sharing that article. And many thanks for what you do, I look forward every day to the email. We met years ago in Charlotte and I am hoping our paths cross again one day soon. Have a great, and restful, April!

That was a great article about your Dad! It was so interesting to read as I knew nothing about magic lanterns and now I do. He obviously pursued his passion and was so involved in things he cared about. Your interest in all things art is definitely a tribute to him, I’m sure. Thanks for sharing with us. Hoping you have a wonderful month to relax!

Thank you so much for sharing the article about your Dad. He sounds like an amazingly interesting man. I lost my Dad a couple of years ago so I know you’re most likely still feeling the absence of yours.
I read a quote that resonated with me that I’ll paraphrase here:
‘People say that grief gets better with time but that is not true. The grief is the same; we just learn to deal with it better.’
I have found that to be very true. I hope you have a wonderful week; thank you for sharing your life with us.

Julie,
Thank you for this most recent art post on your blog. I was especially drawn to the article in the “New York Times” about how art helps people with dementia. About a year ago, my mother died from dementia and it’s complications. She was a mean, angry person in her last years. Because she acted out and was not controllable by the care facility staff, she was given tons of meds to help make her more docile. But I honestly think that if she would’ve had some external stimulation, her life might not have ended as it did because her attitude would have been different. This quote from the article was especially poignant to me: “People with dementia also need adventures. They need to get out, just like us.”
