It’s finally autum, I think, but here in California the temps are still well into the 90’s. Thankfully, the cooler nights, and mornings, help make it feel like fall. I'll be honest, I'm kind of done with summer. I know we all go through it, but this summer had it's challenges for me. But I’m here on the other side and better for it. And I can honestly say, I'm excited for what’s to come. As I look back, even in the midst of the challenges, there were highlights I'm grateful for. One example, Jessie and Blake in the photo here. Congrats newlyweds!
freelove … at High-Hand Gallery thru Oct. 23
First, thank you for braving the heat in July to come to the unveiling of my freelove collection at High-Hand Gallery. I loved the face-to-face connection that we can finally have after such a long time. And a special bit of gratitude for Gail and Ken who made the trip from Reno. You truly touched my heart with your own freelove.
You may know, High-Hand Gallery holds a special place in my heart. But it's time again to say goodbye (again). My artwrork will be available here through Sunday, October 23rd. Come by Sunday October 9th or Sunday October 16th when I'll be working to say hello … and goodbye.
freelove … on my website
My artwork is now available for sale on my website www.AngelaRidgway.com. You may purchase wall hearts here, and, I've added heart pendants to the freelove collection. These little gems are a casual way to show your own freelove while you are on the move – out and about. All prices on my website include shipping, so send that freelove out into the world!
freelove … in the pacific northwest
I’m so happy ... my freelove hearts are now available at Attic Gallery in Camas, Washington. I love everything about this gallery, and town. If you are reading this in the pacific northwest, get out to see Attic Gallery, and say hello to Maria & Tommer. You’ll be glad you did.
freelove . . . and me . . . in Illinois . . . coming soon!
Life brings surprises, and this summer we had a surprise of our own. John and I have the opportunity to move closer to family, so we decided to take it. We’re looking forward to new experiences in Illinois – on the banks of the Mississippi River. I’ll be jumping into this life change with my eyes and my heart wide open. We don’t have a move date yet, but I'm sure it’ll be here before we know it. We have a place waiting for us there, and our home in Roseville is on the market. As soon as we get a buyer, we’ll pack it up and move. freelove and all.
freelove … for Christmas
I know, it seems too early to think about, but if there’s a heart you are thinking about, for yourself or as a gift, please don’t wait. Christmas is right around the corner, and once we are on the move, my art will be too. I may not be able to access my some of my art while it, and we, are on the way to our new home in Illinois. I’d hate to disappoint you.
freelove … from me
wow! That seems like a lot! But I'm sure the next few months will zip by. I'm hoping not too quickly though, so I'm able to take time to savor the connections here before we start the next chapter of our journey. I have treasured every interaction, and am thankful for technology that lets me stay connected with you. I'll still be making art, sending you emails, and sending out freelove.
