may this dress allow you to just go with the flow . . .

“Life is a series of natural 

and spontaneous changes. 

Don't resist them; that only creates sorrow. 

Let reality be reality. 

Let things flow naturally forward in whatever way they like.” 

Laozi

the above dress is part of my 'daily dress series', dresses made during my everyday out of any material that catches my eye.  Tonight is the opening reception for the exhibit, 'daily dress series' at Baldwin Hill Art in Natick, where they will be showing a selection of photographs from the incalculable amount of daily dresses that I have made since 2006.  I am really excited as many of these dresses have never been printed before and to see them as a group is dramatic.

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.’”

from Anne Lamott’s Bird by Bird: Some Instructions on Writing and Life
