UV levels are hovering around 11 which is higher than
they've ever been here. I mean I spotted an article in one
of Canada's top decorating magazines that features my
painting in one of the photos! You've seen this painting
before because it was featured on Pure Design with
Samantha Pynn, and on City TV's Breakfast Television
and Real Life on CTS TV. Well now it's come out in print.
This month Style at Home magazine features the room
Samantha Pynn designed in a piece called Eco Makeover.
That's my painting! How exciting.
my painting. I was so excited I bought three copies.
(Of course I'm buying more.)

a future blog I'll show you the final version of that painting -- just
a bit refined from yesterday's version.
Come on! I had to blog about this didn't I? Still on a blog holiday.
Back on it. Honest.
Have an happy-to-be-an-artist day.

Hi Barbara,
That is fabulously exciting! I am buying that magazine ASAP! And the sale of yesterdays painting... woohoo! This holiday is working out well for you!
Enjoy!

How cool is that?!?!?
Just couldn't keep away, eh? (Just kidding.)
What a great great painting!! I think it's one of my favorites--full of joy and magic.
Thanks Marcia,
As you are from not only the same academic art background as me, but the same general geographic locus, you know that I am very, very hot.
But tonight things are cooling down, and like you I am also cool. Super drawings. Freifeld would be proud of you.

Hi Eldon,
I guess you have to be here. If you ever come up here with Debra, you sure as heck better let me know.
Take care,
Barbara
Nicki, Woo Hoo!
Yay! Thanks for buying the mag. I'm kidding. You can look at it in the library if you want. It's a magazine I always buy, and then look around my own house and think okay! Time to do something about this, but then I go back to splattering paint on everything.

Hi Janie,
Really cool. Like the new picture of you. Time to update mine. Ah well.
Maybe later.
Thanks so much.
Take care,
Barbara
Hi Laura,
Thanks so much, I guess it's like leaving a really wonderful school for the holidays. I love seeing your work. I love seeing everyone's paintings and thoughts -- it's a huge inspiration to me. But my chances to communicate will be rare I think in the next few weeks, so I am getting in the thoughts while I can.
XOBarbara
That is ABSOLUTELY the perfect reason to come out of your blog break!!!! We would be so disappointed if you didn't share this wonderful news - you are flying! CONGRATULATIONS! XOXOXO
thats very exciting Barbara, i will have to get a copy.
CONGRATULATIONS!!! You rock!!
This is just fantastic! It very much reminds me of Henri Rousseau! Tobias's expression is great, it's so hard to capture a smile in a portait and you've done a great job.
wonderful!! Congrats!
