As hoped...The Cookie Cab Gallery has come into existence. I have filled the walls with art work from a local art group, provided them with a meeting place and initiated a commission for one of the artist...all while baking & selling cookies! The group is currently having an ATC (Artist Trading Card) activity.

This past week was the successful preview opening of my new business, The Cookie Cab. Originally it was to be a only a home/business delivery service of warm cookies to your door but....opportunity after opportunity arose & by the good grace of friends and their willingness to lend a hand it is now a full shop/ art gallery! I'm on the run right now to buy more baking ingredients & deliver paintings for a solo show this week but will write again soon....

I thought the last time I became a full time artist it was finally my time. I'd found all that I needed and wanted. I worked very hard at my marketing, show schedules won awards and sold my work on a regular basis. Circumstances beyond my control have once again placed me in the forked path of my art and " other " work. My palette went untouched this past week for the first in a long time. I am feeling the strain of needing to be in two places at once.
