Visual journal pages from the past week. And a new art table chair. My other one met with an unfortunate ending last night.
And finally, I took so many photos yesterday on my graffiti bridge excursion that I wanted to share a few more.
See the little waving fellow? Did you know those little stickers were called street logos? I didn’t. Here in LA you see them on all sorts of street signs, newspaper machines, electrical boxes, anything metal.

Your journal pages are fantastic… love the stencils and colors! And your handwriting is awesome!
Mary Ann,
Thoroughly enjoy your posts, your art, seeing into the “faraway magical land” that is L.A. (at least to this central Pennsylvania girl). Perhaps the greatest gift to me from your blog is that I now look at my own surroundings differently, even more keenly and with greater appreciation. True what Proust said, “”The real voyage of discovery consists not in seeing new lands, but in having new eyes.”

Hi Mary Ann,
You would probably love Banksy’s books also, my son got one last year and it is so cool! Oh yeah, another fun book that I think you would appreciate (it isn’t art but I still think it would inspire you) is called Found – I can’t remember the authors name but he collects found stuff (grocery lists, reciepts,pieces of things etc… and wrote a book about it sharing his findings. He also has a periodical…. Happy Sunday eve… karen
Pilates demo is #7 on my new “Running List of Things to do the Next Time I am in LA”.
I like the daily report V.V.V.V. much.
I LOVE graffiti art!!! you know….what REALLY amazing stuff is out there…THANKS for sharing and I’ll have to go check out this book!
I found the pilates demo very helpful. I din’t know that martinis and pilates could go together! Who knew that exercise could be so much fun!! I am off to the bar to work out now. 😉
Don’t ever stop. I doubt if I could put into words how much joy I get out of studying your journal pages. That glimpse into another mind. Wow. What you do.
