The great news is, it works!!!! I’m truly enjoying feeling nearly normal again and walking like I haven’t been able to in years. My favorite part, passing people on the sidewalk; because I have places to go! One of the places is certainly back into the studio and using all that thinking time effectively. <br />
<br />
Right now one of the things I’m working on is The Humor Project, a new community based work that explores the relationship between healing and humor. I need your help and input!! I’ll be working in new media and utilizing collected jokes. This is where you come in: </span><br />

The fall season is in full swing with lots of things coming up to keep me busy. I've been priviledged to start teaching as well. I currently have 5(!) classes and am enjoying every single one of them. Between all my classes my students range in ages from 10 to senior citizens with lots of newly minted adults in the middle. It's a huge change in my day jobs, but something I have whole-heartedly embraced and love.<br /><br />First things first though, it's time to let everyone in to my studio to see all the work I've been working on. I've been included in several shows and also was convinced to write about my work on something other than an artist statement. You'll find all the information below.

It's been some time. I just wanted to let you know that I'm in two exhibitions currently. If you are in the DC Area, please stop by and check the work out. I've been working in the studio on some new work and also challenging myself by training my left hand while recovering from a right arm injury. It's been great and offers a new way of working and thinking. Some of the left handed paintings are in the DCAC show (below). You can also see them on my Facebook Artist Page (link on bottom). I wish you all happiness and health!

It has a really cool interactive web presence. For someone surfing in bed that can't make it to the exhibition they only make me drool more. You can watch videos, interviews, explore the themes, and get a very good sense of his work. However, if you can make it in person, don't delay.<br /><br />I really love his work for its innovation and process.

I've been recovering at home after 5 days in the hospital. Recovering is a full time job. Managing all the people that are supposed to be helping you and making sure that you get your needs met is hard.<br /><br />I have tried to do some drawing while I'm laying around recovering. I have to say that it's tough. Frida my hat is off to you. It's very tough, though I'll admit to zoning in front of the tv and Netflix, with some guilt. I'm still on the mend and I'm still trying.Jenny Waltonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04471481531048921932noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15661174.post-71081892884619094382010-01-15T00:06:00.002-05:002010-01-15T00:12:24.028-05:00Happy New Year! and upcoming show<blockquote> <p>Happy New Year!<br /></p> <p> </p> <p>I hope the new year is treating you well.

While the exhibition demonstrates the diverse concerns and creative tactics of the nine Sparkplug members, it also reflects the purposeful development of Sparkplug as a collective over the group's first two years of working together.<br /><br />Positing art as an ideal vehicle for navigating seemingly irreconcilable ideas and inspirations, and raising questions about the nature of new knowledge and the Artist's Work, FINDINGS brings themes cultivated during collective meetings and studio visits into the gallery space. In this way, the audience is invited to engage in active conversation with individual artists, and with Sparkplug as an organic and multifarious whole.<br /><br />About Sparkplug<br />Currently composed of nine DC area artists and curators, the Sparkplug collective meets regularly to discuss their work, explore common concerns, grow their community and dream up creative engagements both in DC and around the world. Through its support of Sparkplug, DC Arts Center provides meeting space, legal and technical resources and exhibition opportunities to emerging artists, curators and arts writers without current gallery representation or institutional employ. Via a continuing dialogue encompassing the theoretical and the practical, the group's members share experiences, perspectives, preoccupations, challenges, and topics informing their ongoing artistic practice. <div style="text-align: left;"></div></div> </div>Jenny Waltonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04471481531048921932noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15661174.post-27791495819431928292009-09-28T20:35:00.009-05:002009-09-28T20:42:36.842-05:00<div style="text-align: center;">Lately, ink has been on my mind.
