062309-our new kitty + art news

062309-cat
My big news – we have adopted a new cat. I was hoping to wait until artomatic was over but we fell in love with a rescue. We have not decided on a name yet – but have been calling him Thundercat. He is a beautiful gray and white shorthair. He is quite large and weighs in at 21lbs – he is going on a diet. I am hoping to get him a kitty harness and take him for a walk. He is loving and quite sweet!!!!

–Art News–
Artomatic has kept me very busy and have not had studio time. I have been working on getting some applications submitted. I got all my images ready for the Maryland State Arts Council Individual Artist Grants. I have applied for this the past four times and with this application I can see how much my work has improved. I also am getting other applications together.

Also I will be having some works exhibited at the Prince George’s Publick Playhouse next month. More details on this when everything is set up.

What a weekend!!!!

I am so sorry for not blogging for so long. This has been a crazy insane weekend. We had over 10,000 people on Friday and Saturday alone come through artomatic. I had hoped to be able to socialize a bit during the event, but instead I was running around hauling beer. We went through over 188 cases of beer in one night.

For the past five days I have been on-site working. I do not think I have ever done this amount of physical labor before. I am enjoying my first day off and resting up – my feet and legs feel like cement blocks.

the art

All my artwork is made of paper. It is only created using paper, glue, and patience. The works on this site represent the pieces that I am attempting to create each weekday. These pieces are available to purchase and once an original is sold prints will become available. Other work can be viewed on my main site - www.sagworks.com. Larger works are available to purchase as originals or prints through sagworks.com. I am also available for commissioned pieces.
