A Dream Come True


i signed up today for a workshop I've been craving for several years led by John Paul Caponigro...The Fine Digital Print Advanced.

I went to a mini-workshop talk with him in August and was really impressed....i think it will bring me to a new level of creativity. It's pricey, but i get a discount for signing up early, and i think it will be worth it. I'm both nervous and excited thinking about it! You can check out his gallery at http://www.johnpaulcaponigro.com/gallery/scroll.php

and this is one of his pieces.....he's got such a great eye. His father is a very talented and well known photographer as well.

so i've been thinking....and trying to make more time in my life....so i thought i could make better use of this blog (which i haven't used since last year) to stay in touch with my loved ones.

I use Facebook on a daily basis (if you're not already a friend, sign up and send me a link...) to keep people posted on my day and i share news items and other items of interest. It's a wonderful way of updating a bunch of people easily without having to send out a bunch of e-mails.

But i also wanted an easier way of sharing the more intimate details of my life and day with my closer circle. I've decided to utilize this blog as a way of doing that. You won't get notices that i've posted anything, but i will try to do so on a daily basis. It's by invitation only, so very private. You can comment on my posts. I hope to include all kinds of stuff of interest to me. Or I might just post a reminder to look at my profile on Facebook.

I'll also be posting pictures...i hope. the url is http://laurieart.blogspot.com/ so bookmark it! :)

You'll see some poetry I wrote last fall....and i'll be adding stuff in the sidebars when i figure it all out and have time!

Hope you enjoy this new age method of communicating with me....but it sure will save me time...

Blue Mussel Eyes

Black Raven
with
Blue Mussel Eyes

Sits in the
old apple tree

Staring and waiting

collects bits of feathers
and driftwood
and rocks
and rust
to build his nest
or is it for a coffin?
