Hello, I'm Rachael.

I am primarily a painter and friendly multi-tasker/ troublemaker in Upstate New York. I try to blog often but mostly I try to paint.
Leave me a comment (I'm more likely to communicate directly than in the comments), ask me a question, do your best to share what you have to say, OK? Thanks

I'll be at Second Storie again this year, Thanksgiving Weekend, Rochester NY!

    The work-a-day, work-a-day routine kept me busy this week. Lotsa busy, lots of promise, some frustration, and plenty of cups of coffee but now we're nudging towards the weekend. My paints came in the mail. The Red Sox won. We're headed back to Hotlanta this weekend for a wedding. I'll tell ya all about it when I'm back in town.

    Check out this wonderful new (at least to me) studio blog To Leave a Mark that I found at Carolyn's blog  and have fun this weekend, you troublemakers...

    take care,
    Rachael

    below is an example of how I think visually in my sketchbook. I'm bringing lots of sketchbook related items to the ATL and will visually/ emotionally explore what it feels like to return...

    I am Lesscial Moody, author of the ‘The Truncated Frog.’ For inspiration, climb a cliff. Half way up, stop climbing and then start painting what you feel. If you can’t find a cliff then hang out a window for now. Each time get higher and higher. Note the elevation on each work of art. But, also remember your safety line.

    ‘Frog’ is a cyber race term that I just made up. Let’s try to find a meaning to it.

    "... The war which followed, and to a large extent grew out of, the Depression was a catatrophe which left no doubts in even the most casually reflective individual that 'no man is an iland' and that when the bell tolled , it tolled for him because he was 'involved in mankinde.'"

    I like the word 'iland.' It would seem appropriate for the Rachael.
