Catching up

Once upon a time there was a very silly little girl that fell madly in to art....Last year was the first year she stopped being a frightend child and decided to show her pieces. It was all pretty fantastical. shows in NY and DC, a Fashion show collaboration in Atlanta with Si' Asia Davenport, and had Nick Terry review her work. However, last October she was very scared it was going to be her last year volunteering for Open House at the Chinati Foundation (Silly thing volunteered 5 years at Chinati Open House always to be the gaurdian of the Kabakov space). Nick Terry was resigining...and...it just felt like an ending....funny thing about endings as you can guess, not to be. Instead, this nerd of a girl was offered an internship at Chinati. She started February 2nd and ended May 2nd or so. As was bound to happen, she fell madly in love with the strange town of Marfa (she will always refer to Marfa as Somewhere over the Rainbow). She had planned on staying in Marfa and creating a small life for herself there...but life has it's own plans. Instead of staying, she was accepted to a residency in Vallauris, France. Her mission should she choose to accept it is 14 40x40 paintings in 5 weeks. Her show in Vallauris is October 17th...She get's on a plane September 15th as a girl who forgets to turn the oven on..hopefully she has as much luck as Sabrina but this is another story and shall be told another time...(like when she actually get's on the plane). Anyway, because she got accepted her very amazing aunt who lives in Huston (at a prision no less) invited her to live with her for a while. The silly creature was very sad at leaveing Marfa, and left part of her self there to come back to one day...But, here she is in Huston. Deciding not to waste her time in the city, she has been doing lots of volunteer work for Lawndale and HCP, also she has undertaken the crazy task of putting together a fashion show for August 29th. As of yesterday she will officially be an intern for HCP (she's stupidly happy about this actually). Life is such a strange amazing thing. Donald Judd says every thing happens for a reason...and I believe him
