Family-themed art is a look into one's living room; it depicts celebration, crises, and the quiet moments of familial interactions.
ARE THE OFFICES READY TO COMBINE WITH TELEWORKING?
As we return to normalcy in our lives, we begin to wonder when we will return to the office. Teleworking has ceased to be something exceptional to become part of the day to day , and is that, many companies have joined the hybrid work model, limiting the presence of their employees in the office to only two or three days a week . The companies believe this assistance is necessary, even if it is only for a few days, to generate that team spirit that would not occur if everyone works in isolation.

A Diamond in a brown box
Jamila lived across the street from me for ten years. I've watched Jamila grow through several different transitions in her life; my favorite was seeing her embrace her happiness. The joy of having visitors, living life with them, and spending the holidays with family and friends. Jamila and I met when she was seventeen. I helped her walk her furry pet family member, who was named GraceGrace. GG, for short, was a golden baby doodle at the time; he was utterly adorable. The cutest pup on the block, I'd always say as I watched her walk her dog from afar.

Checkmate
https://yoWhen I was younger, I painted my pictures with words. In my childhood, I explored the universe through books, fiction and non, and it seemed natural that writing was the art form running strongest through my blood. I learned to crochet – sort of - at the age of seven. To this day, I can create a chain of yarn from here to the moon, but I never mastered adding additional rows and the repetition soon bored my active adolescent mind.

Wrapped in Love
Few things in life can compare to the warmth and security of being wrapped in the arms of a loved one. Whether that’s a parent holding their child close, or feeling the embrace of your lover, there is something inherently calming in that moment.

PINK JUSTS MAKES ME HAPPY
I have been an artist almost my whole life. I was born in Manitoba. My dad decided that he needed to have a farm - of sorts, so he bought an acreage on the outskirts of Winnipeg. There was an old farm house on the property, but my dad, thought it would be a good idea to live in a garage with his wife and five children. He got a friend to help him build it and they set up beds for all of us. My mom used an old shed next door to the garage as a make shift kitchen. We used an old outhouse for awhile, but mostly a chemical toilet behind a curtain in the garage. I must have been about six years old when we moved there. It was one of many moves. Our family spent the summer building a house, with the help of my dad's carpenter friend.

Cold Feet
It's been a couple of months since I've been on vocal. Every one gets busy with their lives right? Things are getting stressful for myself and my little family. We are trying to make sure we do what we need to do for ourselves to stay sane during this time. My partner does programing as a creative outlet. When I saw this challenge, I was unsure what I could write about. I'm an artistic person, but I've lost most of my connection to those things. Probably because I feel like it has to be big, grand, and perfect for other people.

Needlepoint and Faith
As I grew up I often found myself spending the summers with my Aunt Pat and Uncle Tom’s house. They had five children, and I reveled in the fact that I could interact with other children. What made those summers even more engaging was the summer-themes my Aunt Pat concocted for us. One summer was a theme of embroidery.

Angels Among Us
Lush feelings evoked by piles of yarn waiting in readiness to become family heirlooms and appreciated gifts. All colors of the rainbow swirling around in your mind’s eye setting an eager little thrill through you at all the prospects these gems can become. One thing they will all become is … angels. Angels with their wings spread wide to sweep all your cares away. A slight halo over her head so everyone knows her purpose. A wide skirt to hold all the cares of your day. All of this beauty is framed by scalloped shells to give your work purpose and definition.

Painting for Peace
Finding peace in an insane world is hard. The past year was a challenge for everyone. The world as we knew it came to a complete halt and we had to discover new ways of connecting and surviving in a Pandemic world. For families with young children this new world meant no breaks from childcare, no playdates, no playgrounds, and it was relentless. It meant that I didn't get to connect with friends for coffee or go to work. I'm an actor and most productions shut down for a big portion of 2020. At the time my husband was finishing his 10th year in the Marine Corps which meant he still was working. We were extremely thankful for the continued income although it compounded my feelings of isolation. He was still seeing people but the rest of us were at home with no one to see and nowhere to go. Our family had to create new routines to help us cope and for me it involved art.

I spent my career, 3 decades, working with all types of paper. As a printing press operator, putting ink on paper, and matching color proofs or a customer's approval was my job. Since the world was turned upside down by the pandemic, I have been out of work. Looking for things to do or a part-time job to fill my time, nothing shone a ray of light on my endlessly gloomy days.
