Happy New Year!

I hope everyone had a fun filled holiday season and festive New Year's Eve!  All of the holidays are blowing through so fast, I can hardly get settled with one before the next is a week away!

I was reading this Newsweek article today and wonder if it will bring any major change to the art world.  Obviously, there's a huge gap between DIY art and crafts that is considered "local art" and the historically classic pieces of Duchamp and Monet, but I'd like to think that however often the "bubble" bursts there is at least a mini-revolution in the art world as far as style and taste go.  That gives "local artists" like me a tiny glimmer of hope that one day, we'll be a little bit bigger than our friend support system; we could at least make a name for ourselves in a region, such as Southeast Louisiana.  I'd even be happy just being locally recognized in Mandeville....bottle cap sculpture, anyone?

The next 6 weeks will be consumed art-wise with finishing the bustier for Flyday.  In the meantime, keep creating in whatever way you know how!!  Cheers!
