women's history month ((march 08))

MARCH IS - a kind of  productive month. I sold 2 really large pieces of art withouteven trying - this week . I think, that My Husband needs time to adjust to it. [He gets attachedto the art ]  I'm doing another piece on commission now. So far, so good .The Creator has been very good to me, so I have to give back.. planning a Children's Art Project @ Our Local Center.

Female Sexual Health -  a few years back,  i made the mistake of  responding to a post of instruction women on how to tighter &  tone their kegels,  ---Women will often talk some of  the most  gutter-type  smack concerning sex,  as vulgar jokes, ,  but often when it comes to actual sexual  heath, exercise or  technical advice ( to enable them to exercise, tone up,  grip better,  have a more enjoyable shared experience, or  become  multi-orgasmic ) - They really can't handle it. --   Here are a few good pages.

the great art of nigeria's Twins Seven Seven, reminds me a little of  ivory coast's  korhogo cloth & mozambique's artist's malagatana's work , then on a whole other note, it reminds me of haitian painter Frantz Zepherin's work.
