“What are you doing this weekend?” Kellee Mayfield

I am having a tough day, not horrible, not life-altering, just tough.  My mind is elsewhere, and I’m kinda wishing my body were too.  Because it is a quiet day in the studio (code for I’m too tired & unmotivated to work), I decided to do a little paperwork, jot down some notes about some ideas that I can’t shake & scroll through Instagram hoping not to lose a half a day.  

I came across today’s Artist of the Day, Kellee Mayfield‘s Insta feed, and almost every post that I clicked said, “What are you doing this weekend?”.  I found somewhere else to be, Chateau d’Orquevaux, a French artist residency, to be precise.  Mayfield spent some time there in the Fall and completed this series of work that transported me.  There’s a food to her Insta feed with which many AAAD will appreciate as well.  So, consider this my invitation to share… what are YOU doing this week?

While I always want to visit an artist’s website, I am sending you to her Insta feed @deltamoxie to give you the same glimpse that gave me the boost my weekend needed. 

Thanks to AAAD Artist of the Day, Kellee Mayfield for the trip to Chateau d’Orquevaux!
