I hope everyone is enjoying life!
I have looked through tons off my photos and
there is so much that I haven’t shown you,
Especially: the wonderful people in my life!
I will be posting all of the photos in no particular order…
Just whatever catches my fancy that day!

These are a few photos of my daughter Ashley, (whom I love terribly!)
We did a photo shoot for Emmy’s Boutique!
I learned a lot about working with models that day...
They have opinions too!
Even though she is only 15 and with no experience;
She was amazing, professional and patient!
With her crazy mom, I am so grateful for her help
especially finishing the job assignment!

That especially cute dog is Josie, My friend Donie's little girl!
Sending Creativity and Passion your way, Caroline

Spring – Robert Sepanak

Wow, another month has almost passed and the spring is here!
New artists are arriving daily, and the birds are chirping!
And of course…
good old “Spring cleaning!”
I will be revamping the gallery again,
and all that is dusty will soon be glittering again!
Any volunteers?

I read this blog last night… ugh!
And I realized….
I posted the same pictures twice!
Talk about absent minded!
I am so sorry…
but also surprised, for no one said anything to me about it!
I am extremely grateful to being this busy!
Like spring the gallery is blossoming before my eyes!
I have been going through a rough time with the home front;
Illness took a toll this year, while again reminding me,
to be extremely appreciative of all the love
& support in my life!

So with these meager ramblings…
I’m wishing you an amazing spring season!
Bringing you only the best: Robert Sepanak original works…
My first real supporter, with whom I owe a great deal of gratitude for his continued support and trust in me!
I am personally amazed by the detail in his work!
And he is absolutely the kindest, down to earth of any artist I’ve ever encountered!
My fav!
Nothing but the best…
Caroline

St. Patrick's Day is an enchanted time - a day to begin transforming winter's dreams into summer's magic. ~Adrienne Cook

I owe it to a great bunch of parents!
A pleasure to work for…

Obviously for an art badge!
The day was pleasant, very quiet; I’m usually never in on a Monday.
Clients;

Dreaming of Spring

Photo’s from the “Night of the Arts”
And Images from our new Photographer Crystal Slavy!

It's spring fever. That is what the name of it is. And when you've got it, you want - oh, you don't quite know what it is you do want, but it just fairly makes your heart ache, you want it so! ~Mark Twain

Yes I do believe that’s what I have spring fever alright!
How one day can change your attitude!
I was feeling over worked and rung out to dry!
Spending just a little time with my family made all the difference!
It was almost two weeks my better half was away…
Talk about work! All the kids and just me alone!
What a Nightmare!
Anyway…
Gallery News:

Just like the wonderful spring season; new artist’s are popping up all over!
I hope to show you all the latest art arriving!
I just took down the Honesdale Student Show…
I am working on another “two” student shows!
And I am sorry to say:
Our Fabulous Computer Wizard Bryan has completed his Internship.
He will be traveling to Japan for further education!
We are wishing him the best of “everything” life has to offer!
Dates…
I still haven’t received the dates yet from my client, which is preventing my
Announcing the ATC Show date, but as soon as I know;
I wish you all to join!

Kudos, for all those organizations for going online with their exhibits!
Especially for those of us who can’t attend these marvelous shows.
They have done a fantastic job, posting up to the website!

I don’t know if it is just me or not?
I love Johnny Depp! Especially with Tim Burton!
Drooling over their imagination…
I am sending the kids tomorrow!
Wish I could go with them!
That darn four letter word, WORK!
Enjoy the weekend!

Enough, reclaiming life!

The artist is Charles Woods, a favorite.



What a day!
Lately…
the harder I work the more work I have!
Tomorrow is work overload,
Did you ever have an impossible day scheduled …
and you fear waking up?

That’s when I decided: ENOUGH!
I am only one person!

I will make time for me again, and do what I enjoy!

The dirty dishes, laundry,
Well…. it can all wait!

They will still be here tomorrow!
and the day after! Especially with four kids!

And those never satisfied clients…
They too, can wait!

I give my all and if it isn’t enough…
OH WELL TO BAD!
So…
I am here cruzin my blogger friends,
Enjoying the artwork and I thank you!
For sharing I really enjoyed my hour!
I know it’s a weird post, but I hope you might understand!
and join the enough movement!

To the Ladies I call Friends:

The Artist a friend: Georgia Chambers! Her new work!

To all my friends…
I love your ideas and suggestions!
Even more than that…
I love that you took “your time” and suggested them too me!
The hustle and bustle of our age…
Just gets to me!
Occasionally, to my dismay, I get down!
Fortunately,
I have great artists and fantastic musical guests!
and
The gallery is doing great!
I think …
I just kinda lost my speed for a bit!
My personal life is in the pits!
but
Renewed and Revived!
I must say…
I am back to fight the good fight!
So Keep Creating Girls!
My job is to Inspire!
And I owe it to another blogger whom I just met!
Creative Carmelina!

Who sums it up so eloquently!
Who reminded me how strong we women are!
So with that said:
To all strong women everywhere:
Some Words by Strong Women whom just struck my cord!

“The Truth will set you free, but first it will piss you off”
Gloria Steinem

The people we are in relationship with
are always a mirror, reflecting our own beliefs,
and simultaneously we are mirrors, reflecting their beliefs.
So... relationship is one of the most powerful tools for growth....
If we look honestly at our relationships,
we can see so much about how we have created them.

~ Shakti Gawain ~

The most common way people give up their power
is by thinking they don't have any.

~ Alice Walker ~

And with those words of wisdom, I say thank you! For being my friends!
and the support you so kindly share!
I will always remember. Caroline
