Pastel Girl goes to LA!!!!


I am excitedly preparing for my upcoming WEST COAST TOUR!!! The plan was hatched in my studio last Summer when my cousin, Julie, her husband, Paul and their beautiful boy, Flynn all came to visit from Santa Monica, CA. Julie, who I would LOVE to hire as my director of marketing, thought it would be fun to have a little opening reception to introduce my work to her friends in her new home. At first, just the work was going to make the trip to Cali. Then she decided I actually needed to be there to, well, schmooze. (When in LA......) THEN a dear friend of mine, living in Huntington Beach also graciously offered to hold a soiree. So I will be busy with back openings, but it should be a lot of fun. I also hope to do a little touring around and visiting with relatives while there. I have been sorting through the work and getting it packed up and ready to go……….

three steps to guarantee your popularity


1. Move to New Hampshire (preferably a fabulous city like Portsmouth)
2. Register as an independent
3. Wait for Primary season.

It has been an exciting time to be a New Hampshire resident. Candidates have been visiting the area for months! From the planned, well-orchestrated rally, to the spontaneous coffee shop appearance, the candidates and their staff are working hard for the chance to get their message out and win your vote. My phone has been ringing off the hook!!!! I have had the privilege of attending several such events. I love that many of us are able to listen to several candidates and discuss the pros and cons of each with our neighbors as we make our way toward a final choice.
