In honor of Betty Friedan's
The Feminine Mystique which has now been published 50 years, I've been thinking about having it
all. I'm not sure anyone can have it
all-whatever that means (and to be honest I'm not sure Betty advocated for it
all at all. I've never read her famous challenge which insisted women to demand more from their lives), but I'm intending to pack
all into my studio work. I've started another painting, finished threading Martha's loom with a wool scarf, began winding warp for rag rugs on my loom, made space for piecing more scrappy squares, and finished one sketchbook full of daily sketches. I have a hard time neglecting any one area of my art making, so I'm choosing to do it
all--maybe even at the same time. (Not pictured, crocheting and embroidering projects)

My guess is that your next painting features a person lying in the fetal position.
