It's no secret that the major attack McCain will face in this election will be that he's just like Bush. Indeed, I believe that in his demeanor and policies, he is. Apparently, a lot of America thinks so too. From a CBS poll released this week:

Many times when finishing a basement or changing the layout of your home you will need to add a wall. Adding a wall is an easy task for the do-it-yourselfer to accomplish. The key to wall building is to make sure that your walls are square and plumb. Out of square or out of plumb walls cause problems with trim, door and window installation.The other tricky part of wall building is framing the corn
I've started insulating the basement walls in the new storage room. I'm attaching 1" extruded polystyrene foam insulation board by DOW. I used a special Styrofoam adhesive to adhere the foam board to the concrete. The foam board I am using comes with a tongue and grove so installation is pretty easy. Just cut the boards to length, apply some adhesive and press it against the wall.After I installed all of the polystyrene foam insulation I sealed all of the joints with Tyvek tape. Tyvek tape is a really strong tape that will stay adhered to the foam board and it keeps out moisture. Concrete holds a tremendous amount of moisture so creating a moisture barrier is essential.Once all the insulation was in place I started framing up 2x4 walls. I'm going to place the walls directly in front of the
Yesterday I took a charcoal drawing Maya did in art class to be framed. I love this piece of artwork alot...I believe it shows her passion for art and her budding skill, and she's so proud of it (therefore, so am I).
The framer came over to me and we discussed frames and glass choice....an older woman was standing in line behind me, and she admired the piece. I told her how proud I am of it, and that I couldn't wait to get it framed and up on the walls.
The 'framer' asked me where it would hang. I mentioned that I didn't know, may be the living room or up the stairwell might be nice (ultimately, this is a Kim decision, not a Jerry decision, but I can pretend, can't I?).
The nice lady behind me said, "It doesn't matter where you hang it, because it is special, and that makes its location one of the most important places your house, doesn't it?"
I just looked at her and agreed, however... I just find the statement profound. So I thought I'd share. This is what age, expereinc
One for the money, two for the show, three to get ready....As I mentioned previously, there is a local guild show coming up. I've spent some time the last few days agonizing over which pieces to enter. My husband had his say in the matter, as did several other family members. And here are the three we collectively decided upon. The Peony is the largest. It is 16X12. The Hydrangeas is 9X12. And the Apple...entitled "Sustenance" is 8X10.These are standard sizes, and standard is what I generally try to adhere to in order to make framing an easier matter. Framing can be expensive and I spend a great deal of time and effort to find the best frames I can find at affordable prices. (affordable prices being subjective.) I love frames. I could eat them up if they are nice ones. It is actually fun to search them out. More fun when I find the ones I like. I have the curse my mother used to call, "Champagne taste on a beer budget." So that makes it even more challenging. I have to
If President Bush can start a preemptive war with Iraq, I can do some preemptive Iraq framing. According to the New York Times today, the White House is going to offer the American people a new strategy for Iraq in September. (What number strategy are we on? I think I’ve lost count.) Reportedly, that strategy won’t be to dig ourselves in deeper with a further “surge,” but to offer some (gasp!) troop reductions. Hooray! The troops are coming home!
Well, not so fast.
General Odierno said the five additional brigades added this year under the president’s troop increase were likely to be withdrawn on a timeline parallel to their arrival in Iraq. Under this timeline, which is not yet the official plan, the troop increase would end by April with the five brigades leaving Iraq one each month, with American force levels returning to the troop levels existing before the increase by next August, he said.
So while troop levels will be reduced, we’re basically just

Should the media, instead of exposing news stories, start exposing the framing and spin around those stories?
More from The Agonist: This is true courage, and this is standing up for what you believe in.
You’ve heard about magic September, right? That’s when General Petraeus, God of all things Iraq, was going to tell Congress and the American people exactly how the surge was working out. It was supposed to be perfect. He’d come. He’d tell it like it is.

copyright Vivien BlackburnKatherine asked me to show how I frame work, so .... here goes :) This is how I framed the big mixed media and pastel abstracted flower.The frame is over 3ft square and the mount was either 4 or 5 inches wide - I think it might have been 5 with 5.5 inches at the bottom. It could even have had a wider mount (mat) - but the framing costs got a bit much! My framer taught me when I was starting out that it pays to have an extra half inch at the bottom to stop the 'falling out of the frame' look that you can get if the mount is equal all the way round.I don't use coloured mounts, just antique white - a soft creamy colour. I usually frame in limed ash - again a pale neutral colour that lets the painting be the key element. By using one type of wood they all look right together in a show. The widths of the frame may vary but the 'look' is the same.I never frame work on canvas. I use gallery wrap canvas and paint the edges - usually in a colour that works with t
A quick posting today as I have been working so hard on the painting front!
Three more paintings were delivered to the gallery last week - “Vertigo”, “Peek-A-Boo” and “Walks On Water” now reside at the Morgan Gallery. You can view them there or at my Arteccentrix online gallery. and I’ve includeda shotof Peek-A-Boo below to brighten things up a little.
I also took them two new paintings today, one named “Icarus” and the other entitled “Newborn Tide”. The reactions from people, as ever with my work, seemed mixed, but I am very pleased with them both and think they are some of the best I have done recently. I did expect some reservations, but I’m confident in their merit.
As I omitted to take any pictures before leaving them at the gallery there will be a delay in showing them online.
“Blue Moon” has finally been sold to one of my very loyal private collectors on the island - as it was a direct sale
When my framing frenzy was over and the dust finally settled in my studio last night, there were 54 paintings ready to go to the show. I decided to leave two of the larger paintings here, and delivered 52 to Putnam Arts Council's Belle Levine Gallery this morning. It's going to look awesome! I'll try to get some pics to post after everything is hung and ready. I'll also be at the Gallery on Saturday, December 9 from 2-5, and on Tuesday, December 12 from 12-3 for anyone who wants a personal tour of the exhibit.
For those in Dutchess County, don't forget that I have 9 paintings left in the Buone Feste show at the River Winds Gallery! It's right on Main Street in Beacon. There is a wonderful selection of gift items in that show made by local artisans. I splurged and bought myself a pair of gorgeous handmade earrings there.
And let's not forget Westchester County.... You can see my paintings at The Paint Box in Bedford Hills. There are many small pieces, as well as a 24x36 plein air
