I swear....I have so much stamina when I visit friends....It's possible I'm wearing them out !!!
....at home I could easily vegitate on the couch with a cuppa tea and a marathon of 'Law and Order' BUT...when I hop on that plane to see 'the wax girls' WOW...I am energized !!
today we headed out to
I got to spend the morning with my friend Fanne Fernow,
another encaustic artist extraordinaire.
I am a Fanne fan !
Fanne of the "best medium in town" fame...
Fanne, owner of "Clairvoyant Encaustics" , makes the most wonderful purified beeswax and damar resin mix anywhere. AND SHE SHIPS folks !
her work is so different and so interesting, unlike most encaustic you've seen. Her series below is all poured wax and, the process by which she gets the deep sphere impressions is so amazing...alas.....I am sworn to secrecy !!!
but...they are FOR SALE !!!!
you can tell from her style that she has the patience of a saint to get all those teeny weeny dots to form the abstract.
and she does some very fun stuff too...all in wax...
I think her philosophy is incredible so I'm sharing her words here.."
My work is about prayer and meditation. I am not particularly religious, mind you, but I do believe that there is a holy presence in the world. A presence that is so amazing that our tiny little human minds cannot conceptualize it. I believe in the power of prayer, some would call it bringing our thoughts into our consciousness. I love mantras, repetition of sounds, images, ideas that with every beat become larger and more important. It is like prayer with a backbeat. I love iconography from many religions and spiritual paths. I am one who believes that each of us gets to figure out our own understanding of the holy. In my work I do not set out to tell you that. My goal is to show you what it all means to me and invite you to consider what it means to you."

After lunch...
Hopped over to
They too were having an encaustic show featuring the work of Linda Benenati

Wisteria is a beautiful nursery with a remarkable gift shop...a perfect setting for an art showing

loved the extra large typewriter key letters
went MAD over the chinese birdhouses (EXPENSIVE!!!!)...did not ask them to ship....just drooooooled....a lot..
but did find more birdie things...tra la...got a little excited
and, on the way home we took a brief detour to see "LOOT"
this darling little shop also had surprises going on inside
this is Teddy ...woof woof
so....the aim is just to keep you inspired...
think of all the money I've saved you !!
tomorrow.....maybe BEADS !!!!!!!
Keni is sharing his secrets in his Superman Stamina video series. He claims that the key to keeping a lady curious about you is your ability to present her satisfying orgasms. According to Styles, a girl can stray to another man that can give her with sexual satisfaction if you'll be able to’t provide her with it. Plus, he also claims that a girl can never truly be attracted to you if you can’t give her with orgasms from penetration. But luckily he claims that providing these varieties of orgasms to ladies is actually comparatively straightforward and merely requires the proper amount of endurance and a gradual rhythm.
