Radio Reality
Well, I did it! Taped my first show that is. Last week I spoke with Scott Engel of Artistic Designs Gallery and Framing of Morningside, aka www.framewise.com (yes, that is what happens when you have a company name that isn’t conducive to a web URL!) The interview will air on May 11, Scott is a…
When Saying No Means Yes, to Success!
In the last two weeks, I’ve had a slew of PR opportunities come my way but for design, not for speaking, coaching or writing. Now, ordinarily I would simply pursue these openings, but I realized that it was not in alignment with my current desired experiences or path and said “NO.” It wasn’t easy but…
Excuse Me, Your Life is Waiting
Excuse Me Your Life is Waiting, Lynn Grabhorn This is the missing piece! I think she could have done the same with a book half the size, but the point is hammered home. It is not just about thinking your way rich, thin, happy, successful, healthy, abundant, or any other way you want to be,…
An Unfinished Life
“An Unfinished Life” – Robert Redford, Morgan Freeman, Jennifer Lopez Definitely an unusual cast, Redford and Freeman are brilliant and well paired, Lopez is clearly the outsider, not a bad choice, but think it might have been better. In a nutshell, Lopez was married to Redford’s son and they are in a car wreck, she…
Oscar Winners, Swimming With Dolphins
Oscar Winners! Well, I know it was back in March, but this picture just got splashed out in Atlanta’s Luxury Lifestyle magazine, Jezebel! Kind of cool to be amongst celebrities and the beautiful people. They also did a great piece “ Artistic Habitation” and featured one of my favorite client interiors and quoted me liberally…
Trust The Man – Cape of Good Hope
“Trust the Man” – David Duchovny, Julianne Moore, Maggie Gyllenhaal, Billy Crudup What on earth was this bit of fluff and nonsense! With a cast that knows better, what were they thinking. Moore looked consistently wane and pudgy, Gyllenhaal while radiant put up with way too much garbage from the men in her life (yawn).…
Mix – Atlanta (Brookhaven), GA
Edgy retro best describes this gathering place, most popular with the upscale 25-35 something crowd after 10pm. Mix is a suitable counterpart to it’s sister restaurant Haven that devotes to the 35+ crowd 6-10pm. It offers a variety of tapa style bites and a reasonable wine list with a full bar if desired. The point…
Ties That Bind
On the recent trip I made, I had not seen my Aunt, Uncle or cousins in over 25 years. I truly hadn’t realized it had been that long and certainly didn’t intend it to happen. They are on my Father’s side of the clan and since he doesn’t stay in touch with me or them…
Babette’s Café – Atlanta (Midtown), GA
One of Atlanta’s true landmarks, Babette’s inhabits an old house just off North Highland Avenue. A charming European café atmosphere complete with a deck off the back beckons in warm weather or cold with fireplaces in two corners inside. The menu is varied seasonally to keep it interesting, the food is always fresh and creative.…

With insightful and intriguing interviews with artists, gallery owners, and collectors, in Georgia, the Southeast and beyond, I will illustrate…
