And the theme for today, ladies and gentlemen, will be reconnecting in a confusing world.

The wonderful, vibrant artist Rian Kerrane sent through to me pictures of her new daughter.

On facebook I have now over 100 former students that I have in my friend’s folder. It is exciting and informing to see what people have made of themselves and what kind of life they have created. To see an adolescence’s face fleshed out and forty is almost magical. The last image I hold of some of these people is when they were 15 or 16. Now with families, responsible jobs and various ways in which they contribute to the community, they own the power that was once only a promise. It is wonderful to have one of them step forward and say, “Hey. It is so good to see you.” I did not expect to have so much emotion and such a feeling of gratitude for the chance I had to spend time with these people and make some kind of impression.

Today I must work two images and finish the graphic design for a CD cover. It will be slowly because I feel very weak, tired and have carried around a migraine for the last three days.

What fun! In anticipation of teaching hand crafted books for UBC O Extention Services, I made five handmade books including my poetry and digital imagery for sale in Vernon. The task was engaging and allowed me to explore the interaction between my poetry and my visual/digital art.

My plan is to continue to produce these books and to make versions that are not water soluable. I don’t want to make mass produced items but simply to explore how to produce books that are more sturdy.

Last week I worked ten hour days on marketing and production. I will be loading up images of the new small mdf magnets that I have been painting called “miniature masterpieces” for my site next week. I have also begun to find places to hang my art in the business or corporate setting. The eight pieces I have up at my doctor’s new office are stunningly appropriate for the setting. I always intuited that my work would work best in a contemporary setting.

Coldwell Banker is thinking about putting pieces up in their office and I will produce some giant works for a new furniture store in the Mission area of Kelowna.

I am waiting to receive the catalogue from the Trevisan “Traces of Memory” show in Ferrar, Italy. Photographs of the show are forth coming.

Always more to do in terms of getting my work out into the world. Stay tuned I will be adding links and images soon.
