Black Friday for me is when my fall decorations and my Christmas decorations can mingle for a couple of hours. Ha. I’m always excited to go from orange-centric to red and green-centric color scheme. ~Despina

Long ago I realized that December 25th marked the 1st day of Christmas—contrary to what I thought were the two weeks leading up to the big day when I was a kid. This changed everything. All the hustle and bustle of the season comes to an abrupt end and then the holiday starts. Everything has […]

The end of the semester, clients finalizing their projects for the year, time spent thinking about and planning for goals and projects for the year to come. In the middle of all this hustle and bustle, […]

As the holiday season is fully underway, I continued my attempt to knock off a few more ideas for those projects that never see the light of day. —Dominick

I was very happy to help initiate our new Holiday category on studio1482.com this summer. It meant that I would be searching through and working on some projects that always seem to be in the forefront of my mind for a short but intense period of time but are never allowed the room to come […]

Christmas comes in all shapes and sizes. I hope yours was as small or large as you had hoped and as tacky or tasteful as you planned (or didn’t)—but most of all I hope it was peaceful and joyous all around.—Dominick

As the holiday’s are fast approaching I’ve been spending a lot of time explaining to the boys how to “draw on a feeling”. Above was one of those demonstrations as I explained to them why going to church on Christmas day was so important and how it wasn’t about the Paw Patrol toy they each […]

View post →A simple drawing I did in the Medieval Sculpture Hall at the Metropolitan Museum of Art. If you haven’t been there to see the adorned galleries during the Holiday season, I HIGHLY RECOMMEND you put it on your list of “life time to-do’s”. – Michele Quote by Elie Wiesel

View post →A year or so back I purchased this sweet ‘Little People’ Nativity Set in anticipation of teaching my children the wonder of Christmas. This year my older one is 3 and “wonder” is BIG on his plate…What’s this Mommy? What’s that Mommy?… over and over and OVER. So while answering his question of what the Angels purpose was […]
View post →I have anticipated for weeks what I would post today. Thursday is my day and Christmas has fallen on Thursday. I had planned on doing a little series of Nativity scenes spread around the house and town, but as we were preparing for Santa time ran short. OK, maybe just one scene, I only need […]
View post →There will never be enough time in the day. This is never more apparent than during the holiday season. I wish the days could just slow down to a crawl. I love everything about the lead up, and everything about the time after. Forget the day itself, that could last forever. So as I ponder […]
