Celebrating Art with Proust

July 25th marks the three-year anniversary of publication of this blog, so it's nice to have something unusual to post as a celebration. Thanks to indefatigable artist/resident Kristine Schomaker, The Brewery Artists Colony, where I have my studio, has a new blog on Tumblr called Brewery Art Los Angeles. To give readers some insight to those of us who work and live there, artists have been invited to answer a version of the Proust Questionnaire very similar to the one featured in Vanity Fair. The questionnaire has its origins in a parlor game popularized (though not devised) by Marcel Proust, the French essayist and novelist, who believed that in answering these questions, an individual reveals his or her true nature. Click here to read my responses. They probably won't surprise those of you who've known me for a long time!

  2. Thanks, Jeri! It was fun to answer the questionnaire. And, although my blog posts are a bit sporadic, I'm still enjoying the blog, too.

    "The Thoughtful Consumer" has its seven year anniversary coming up next week. For some reason, mid-summer inspires blogging for me!
