Due to unforeseen challenges, last year’s Hauntingly Good Art presentation at the Leesburg Center for the Arts was cancelled at the last minute. This was a heartbreaking experience to say the least. Thankfully, a lot can change in a year and Hauntingly Good Art was revived for Spooky Season 2023! Hauntingly Good Art (finally!) took […]
Read more "Hauntingly Good Art 2023"As you may recall from previous posts on this blog… I LOVE HALLOWEEN! I love decorating and dressing up and giving out candy – all of it!

Read more "Hauntingly Good Art"You may recall hearing a strange story coming out of the art world this summer. Trust me, I know that is a loaded sentence.

Read more "The Sale of an “Immaterial Sculpture”"To be perfectly honest, I can’t remember ever carving a pumpkin for Halloween.

Read more "Painting in the Pumpkin Patch!"Halloween 2018 was amazing and I am definitely bummed out coming down off that Halloween high. I feel like our set up this year went well, despite the fact that I had to simplify our theme (due to our crazy schedules) and recycle our costumes from two years ago. That being said, our homemade pumpkin […]

Read more "It’s Almost Time…"After exploring a number of possibilities, I have finally settled on this year’s theme for our Halloween celebration… “It’s the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown!” As you may recall, last year’s theme was “Gravity Falls” and it was a rather involved process as I tried to recreate the Mystery Shack in front of our house in […]
