C'mon now, you know the possibilities are endless. After all, these are the most important food groups, despite what the experts all tell us. So do share with the class your favorite harmonious blend, and I will tell you mine.
Now that my show season is over, it's time for what I lovingly call winter work. Winter work is studio time. It's when I light the fire in the wood stove and sit down at the drawing table and/or easel, both of which are pulled close to the wood stove. It's winter work because when the weather cools off and the leaves fall, the studio is the most inviting place in my life. The warmth of the fire and the smell of the wood and the blank slate on the easel are what inspire and motivate me to work. At one of my shows I bought this glorious coffee mug from Paige @rockbottomceramics. It sits on top of the woodstove and keeps the coffee warm for hours. It's a studio staple. There is purposely a blank canvas on the easel, or in this case, a smooth panel which will eventually be gessoed and painted with an expression of light through leaves. The blank canvas is self care. It's a sign of hope for my future. What will go on ...
My favorite harmonius blend with wine does not include a bread and cheese, but does have a food and a place. It is Pinot Noir with cedar planked salmon, preferably eaten outside while overlooking water.
