Apologies for my absence through the Christmas Holidays! I've been busy And after all the busy-ness, I've been kind of down. It's been an emotional struggle not to see my friends at our Folkart Shop! In the normal getting-ready-for-Christmas, I was kept busy preparing in every way one does. PREPARATION is the big word for Advent, and that applies to body and Spirit!
It was several days after Christmas before I realized how much I missed the shop, and all the people I was missing seeing. I have developed so many friendships through the shop! I have missed visiting with friends. Through phone, Facebook , e mails and Skype, I've been able to visit with
folks, but it's good to relate in person.
Through their good-heartedness, I was invited to have my santas at 2 open houses. It was fun to be a small part of those, but I realized that my Driftwood Santas need a shop, called Folkart in Valley Junction, and meeting one-on-one with customers that is what my Santas are about!
My "Driftwood Folkart"website wasn't as successful as I had hoped, tho' there was a little activity. Thanks to Kellie, founder of trAloola, for coming to my house to help me set up a new website for my paintings. Please click here on the address below and take a look. (Neither site is available by clicking on this blog!?....... YET!)

We're still in the process of building two sites on the under the trAlooa umbrella, and hopefully, it will be worked out soon.
I've been starting to do some post-Christmas painting, and I so enjoy the snowy landscape we're covered with now. We still have about 2' of snow here--and now that we're plowed out, it's so peaceful and inspirational to look outside. Built-in scenes, waiting to be put on canvas and paper!
Thanks for keeping up with my blog. I'll try to be much more attentive to additions here!
(The painting shown is called "Dancing Trees". It is a 16"x20" acrylic.)
Till later..........
