Happy New Year!

As a fan of the

'Mamas and Papas'

back in the sixties...

I ran across this video featuring a song

by Mama Cass Elliot

that I thought was really appropriate for

the

New Year!!

Enjoy!

Interview with the Wall Street Journal

I recently did an interview

with Sue Shellenbarger

for the Wall Street Journal.

Here's a link.

A 'Freebie' for the New Year

I put together this

2010 Calendar

for you to 'grab'.

It's available

at this

site.

You can print and give away

as many as you like...

just don't offer it

for resale

in any form.

Have a Wonderful New Year!!

Spending the rest of the year on New Paintings!

I made a New Year's Resolution

last year...

'to become better organized'..

and I have kept it!

One of my resolutions for 2010

was to 'build' a little

mini-studio in the corner of my dining room...

(I work mostly in my dining room and living room as my

studio/ print/ shipping center

is too cold in the winter and too hot in the summer)

Well..I was interviewed by

Sue Shellenbarger

of the Wall Street Journal..

who sent a photographer to shoot

my organized work space...

and

this prompted me to go ahead and

put up my 'mini-studio' a few weeks early.

Soooo...I will be spending the time between Christmas and

New Year

doing a batch of new paintings for my

Rustic Goth Shop...AND maybe even for my

CMZ Art Zibbet Shop.

Hope everyone had a

Wonderful Christmas

and wishing for you

a

Great New Year!

Happy Holidays!

Merry Christmas!

Wishing you a

Blessed Christmas

and a

Joyous New Year!

I chose this particular version of 'Mary Did You Know'...as I know it was one of my husband's very FAVORITE songs ever...and he was especially proud of the fact that he was friend's with Buddy Greene...who wrote the music.

Coming Up on a New Year!

With the New Year fast approaching...

I have been soooo busy cleaning

and doing last minute

shipping for my Rustic Goth Etsy Shop

I really am tired...but I've got

one more day of cleaning yet to do.

I'm just now getting around to doing my

Fall Cleaning.

That means everything comes off of the shelves

and gets a good scrubbing.

I normally do it much sooner but,

between my damaged roof (that took

until almost winter to get repaired)

and the shows I did this year...

time just 'got away' from me.

Last year I made a New Year's Resolution

to become better organized..

and I've really tried to keep that resolution..

when something gets 'let go'

the result is

'disorganization'.

So...you see why I've been so busy...

well...that...and something I will reveal before

the first of the year:).
