September - December 2016

​

Dear Friends,

​

For those of you that follow me, and for those of you who are visiting my site for the first time, welcome and thank you.  

​

This year, on September 29, I had laparoscopic surgery to deal with an endometrioma, in addition to having a fibroid removed.  My whole life I have had a challenging uterus and this year topped all previous years as far as symptoms.  

 

I'm finally recovered from surgery, but continue to bleed so I have started up acupuncture and Chinese herbal treatments.  I do not intend for my website to become a chronicle of my health issues, though if you follow me on IG (see below) you'll know I'm not shy about it.  Still, I'm certain that at some point I will do a painting series that deals with my experience.  

 

Of course, I have goals for the new year, and once concreted I'll post them here.  I also like to pick a word for the year.  2016 was "Agency" and I lived it every day.  My list of goals already includes a revamp of my website (it feels like it's time... again) and a thorough spring cleaning/clearing and studio reorganization that is over six months overdue.

​

Have a wonderful New Year.  I'm pretty sure 2017 won't suck as hard as its predecessor...
