Welcome to The Nibbler by me, Jill Myer, a bi-weekly brief focusing on art, inspiration, creativity, snacks, and joy.
Good morning, Nibblers
Happy Tuesday!
You will never believe this, but today is going to be the best day of my life.
An exaggeration?
Likely.
Probably.
BUT I am so over the moon excited about what this day holds!
I am meeting one of my heroes!
I know. I know.
”Don’t meet your heroes.”
But my experience will be different.
I’m sure of it, hahahahahahaaaa.
Why?
Because I am meeting this hero to learn from them, and quite frankly, I don’t care what they are like as a human (although she has been absolutely lovely in our communications thus far) as long as they allow me to crawl around in the art side of their brain for SEVEN hours today and let me play in their studio.
I am meeting Emma Ashby, who lives in New Hampshire. Her work BLOWS my mind!! You can see her portfolio here.

Travel photos and the saga of getting to NH are on the BLOG.
It is a tragedy in three parts, a bit like Shakespeare, but with a twist and a happy ending. Because I actually made it here, and everything is okay.

Salutations, Shit has Gone Sideways
A Plane, A Train, Two Rental Cars, A Lost Dog, an ER Visit or Two, A Delay, the Resurrection of a Scheme, An Airport, An Artist, and an Old Friend
To tell the full story of the last seven days would require a 700-page novel with small type and long chapters.
Since we don’t have that kind of time, I shall do my utmost to surmise how my most anticipated trip of the year was delayed in the most preposterous ways….

MY FAVORITE SNACK
POPOVERS!
A New England staple, we had popovers for breakfast yesterday, and they were so very yummy!!
TODAY I LEARNED
"Fancy Painter" used to be a job title, and we need to bring it back ASAP!
I don't know what a Fancy Painter used to do, but I'm confident I'm up for the job, as long as it doesn't require wearing tight pants and a frilly high lace collar.
SHOP
I’m not home, so please don’t order anything until tomorrow!!
Or you can pop down to the gallery and see what’s going on there!
