You can see an old repair from an earlier crack next to the gilded repair i just made to this beautiful old broken piece of pottery. There really is something cathartic about drawing unexpected attention to your “flaws” and making them your stand-out feature, rather than just trying to hide it in a way that’ll always feel like you’re denying a piece of your history. … not to get too deep about some glue and gold leafing but it’s true.

Elie stumbled upon some glitter stars sprinkled on the kitchen counter and sink… a few were on the sponge we use to wash dishes. “Ugh…. my worst nightmare- this stuff never goes away, I hate it in the kitchen.” he said “oh please, these are big glitters, not the powder fine stuff – this is not your worst nightmare.” He acknowledged the truth in my statement. But then I realized something else… “actually,” I said, “your worst nightmare is your world with no glitter in it at all.” He looked at me with a mix of rolled eyes and something resembling amusement. Happy Father’s Day. To elie and all the dudes who trade their hate of glitter for their love of a sparkly woman.

How cool is this?? Last night was the gala and my painting was part of a Chinese auction. The winner was randomly selected from the people who put in a ticket to win it. I snuck a look in the box and there were a bunch of tickets in there. 😉 The hewrew quote translates into “A small flame can ignite the whole world.” And it was entitled “Little Light.” Anyhoooo, my friend Pamela won the artwork and ONLY AFTER WINNING did she notice the pieces name. Her Hebrew name literally translates into “Little Light.” How crazypants goosebumpy is that??
