Good morning friends,
I'm so excited to tell you my own online SHOP is opening tonight and you are invited to the opening reception! I worked late into the night 'hanging' the show and am finishing up today. I hope you can stop by for the celebration this evening at 6 o'clock cst! {Wear your favorite black dress or pants.}

I'll be showing some of the recent works on paper I've been sharing with you : the mini's, the 4" x 6" pieces, and some of the 5in. x 7in. drawings.

eeee! I'm giddy and hope to see you!

Oh, don't miss Alicia's anticipated SHOP update today at noon, cst!

happy spring!

just popping in to let you know...

OUR * WELCOME SPRING SALE * is going on now through SATURDAY, MARCH 22 at 10pm. CST. It will be the last opportunity to get the "red ribbon selections", diptychs 1.10.08 and 1.14.08. At the end of the sale, we will remove these items from the shop. We've marked our sale prices at nearly half of the original price, just because we're excited for spring and we like you so much! We hope you'll celebrate spring with us!!

I may return soon with another announcement, that I'm excited to share with you. But for now I must get back to work...

enjoy your day!

Good morning,

How are you today?
Yesterday I worked on the wallpaper pinhole project. I hope to make enough progress on it this week so I can share it with you by the end of the week. I also put some previous work on the wall, and while thinking about it, got ideas for new pieces for the wpp. I love it when ideas flow like that, don't you?

Inspiration:
+ Kiki Smith Maiden & Moonflower hand-printed wallpaper via poppytalk.
+ Collection of wallcoverings at the Cooper-Hewitt Museum : William Morris Daisy wallpaper : children's wallcoverings Oranges and Lemons... : Domino paper c. 1750
+ My husband is a woodworker, and in addition he does restoration work on old homes here in the area. Sometimes, if the circumstances allow, I am able to collect bits of the old wallpapers and see the layers of papers that have been applied to the walls. I have a box of these fragile pieces and enjoy looking at them from time to time.

+++++
Noticing Project WELCOME SPRING SALE in the shop begins tomorrow at 10 am. CST and runs through Saturday 10 pm. CST. We hope you'll stop in!

have a lovely day,
Heather

Good {soupy} morning,

I awoke to thunderstorms this morning, which reminds me it's {almost truly} spring, and it's still dripping with rain now.

Alicia and I are going to have a Welcome Spring sale in our Noticing Project shop, beginning this Wednesday. It will be the last opportunity to get these three items and then they're gone for good. Our sale prices have us in a twitter so we hope you'll stop in and celebrate spring with us!!

Oh, this is my 200th post here! Emily has her 200th post today too!

I'm going to work in the studio so until soon friends,
Heather
