may this dress bring you LOVE!!!!

Love makes your soul crawl out 
from its hiding place.  
~ Zora Neale Hurston

Today's dress is part of the daily dress journal I made in 2011,

during my time at VSC.  This page is made with the envelope from a letter Harriet sent me while I was there, and just this morning, while walking my trusty hound, Scruffy,  I was thinking about how 'at home' I felt during that residency,

living and breathing art, literally. 

  

I would get up around 7am, have a quick bite for breakfast, then head off to my studio until about 1 am, with occasional breaks for lunch and dinner.  And when I was not in my studio I was surrounded by fellow artists from all over the world!! 

I did this for two weeks loving the solitude and the submersion in the creative process. I lived in my sparse collection of work clothes, just so content in my own little world . . . 

Except I missed my girls SOOOOOO!! 

I know they feed my creative soul, 

they give me so much of what I use to make my art.  

They pull me out of my hiding place every day and for this I am endlessly grateful!!!
