It seemed that I emerged out of that dream state of mine just in time for the PRINT HOUSTON 2013 exhibit at the Rudolph Blume Fine Art/ ArtScan Gallery that features some of my photo-gravures as well as artwork by Magda Boltz-Wilson, Oliver Raszewski, Antje Rietsch, Silke Andrea Schmidt.
The weekend before the opening of the show I went to my friend Magda’s house so that we could frame the photo-gravures from my Goddesses series that would be displayed in the show. It was so wonderful to just hang out at her house and to catch up on some things I must have missed during my extended winter sleep. It was a beautiful day, so peaceful and gorgeous. Her place is a piece of art in itself with artwork by her husband Ed Wilson and herself. I could even get a close-up at her art car that won second place in Houston’s art car parade. It is a whimsical representation of our home country – Germany, the land of the garden gnomes. All together I left her house very much refreshed and inspired, as if the little pond with two gorgeous water lilies, the amazing art by these two Houston artists, the peaceful atmosphere of the compound they live on, and last but not least the garden gnomes on my friend’s art car had infused me with a renewed sense for the beauty of the creative spirit.
