Art on the planet
My dear friend Cathy finally started a blog! If you’re feeling even the wee bit skeptical or disenchanted with the world today, just take a minute to read one of her posts.
Cathy’s seriously upping the positive vibe of the mucky river of life with her work at Artwala Road.
She sells gorgeous, inspiring paintings. Her art and artist reviews are a wonderful reminder of the good in people’s hearts, and the power of their expression. She also shares the depth of her knowledge and experience from her lifelong career as a commercial illustrator and artist (that’s how we met! I hired her to illustrate columns for me at Time and we hit it off so well that we talked for an hour our first conversation!) with wonderful, short drawing lessons.
Please go check it out, and visit often. She’ll be starting an ongoing journal soon, too! Don’t forget to show your love, and leave some comments! And buy a painting!

Thank goodness for the wonder of spidering through all there is to find on the internet. You are both incredible. Kelly, I love your voice, so frank and musical. And Cath is so honest: . I saw inspiration was coming to me not from me. Brilliant. Thank you.
