may this dress remind you, bird by bird . . . .

Today I need to remember the wise words from Anne Lamott's father

 ~ 'bird by bird'.

As it happens I am prepping for 

2 shows opening in the next 7 days!! 

'Flirt",  the inaugural group show @ the Dedham Mother Brook Art Center & 

'the daily dress series' @ Baldwin Hill Art, Natick.

I am super excited about both shows, 

however this friday has arrived with a laundry list of 

things to do a mile long - 

so bird by bird . . .  

“Thirty years ago my older brother, who was ten years old at the time, was trying to get a report on birds written that he’d had three months to write, which was due the next day. We were out at our family cabin in Bolinas, and he was at the kitchen table, close to tears, surrounded by binder paper and pencils and unopened books on birds, immobilized by the hugeness of the task ahead. Then my father sat down beside him, put his arm around my brother’s shoulder, and said, ‘Bird by bird, buddy. Just take it bird by bird.’”
