Happy New Year!

After almost a month hiatus I am back to share all things Travel, Art and Love!

Lots of huge things have happened this past month!  Divine Pastries hit the shelves on December 31st at Kim & Scott's Pretzels: Cafe Twist located at 2218 N. Lincoln Ave. in Chicago.  Also make sure to check Divine Pastries new website and leave an email at sponton@divinepastries.com!  

The exhibit Self Care and Growth: Living an Expressed Life opened this past Sunday, January 9th at the Evanston Art Depot located at 600 Main Street, Evanston, IL.  Artist, and MAAT Candiate Emerald Smith, and myself feature paintings and prints that address the topic of "self-care" in the counseling relationship. Both Emearld and myself believe that making art enriches our own lives, as well as the lives of the clients we work with.  Taking time to tap into our own creative energy is an essential part of being present and empathic with our clients.

This week I submit my sketchbook for the Sketchbook Project that opens March, 2011!  Make sure to look out for the dates the exhibit is near you!
