MaggieMoose: Be Proud To Be

Maggie's pawsability thought for the day:

"You should never feel afraid to become a piece of art. It's exhilarating."

Nicki Minaj

We are officially part of The Story of the Creative exhibition which opened in the New York City gallery on July 25th, 2013. It runs for 7 weeks & is open to the public! Photos of Maggie!

Maggie says: It's exhilarating being proud to be a piece of art!

MaggieMoose: New York! New York! Show Time!

Maggie's pawsability thought for the day:

"For centuries, New York has served as the gateway for millions of people from all over the world in search of the American dream...."

 Hillary Clinton

 

  July 25th. Tonight is the night, Maggie's photos will be on display at the Angel Orensanz Foundation for Contemporary Art in New York City for its Opening Reception of The Story of the Creative. Maggie and I are humbled and appreciative we were invited to participate in this incredible international art exhibition that runs through September 10th in NYC.  We are living the American dream- all the way from the San Francisco bay area. Since we aren't able to attend in person Maggie thought she'd hop on up on the art poster for the exhibit. New York City's international gateway can add one English Springer Spaniel dog to their list of millions of people from around the world in search of the American dream. MaggieMoose is in town for 6 weeks! We thank the See.Me community for selecting us. WOOF WOOF! 
For our Twitter followers tonight's exhibition can be followed @seemecommunity #SOTC2013

MaggieMoose: A Muse Yourself

Maggie's pawsability thought for the day:

 "Living creatively is really important to maintain throughout your life. And living creatively doesn't mean only artistic creativity, although that's part of it. It means being yourself, not just complying with the wishes of other people."

Matt Groening

  My muse is Maggie. She's always just herself. Complying with my wishes might get my sweet dog a treat or two, but she maintains her individuality. In our home creativity is the juice that keeps us humming along, singing our song. Each day brings new bolts of creativity. They usually start with a WOOF WOOF. When we entered the blogging world many others suggested we do this kind of blog or we do that kind of blog. Maggie insisted we follow our own creative path. I agreed to walk along side her in the decision making for all our creative choices. When we went to write a children's book that would touch children's and adult's hearts we found many rules created by others. These rules stymied us for a bit. We decided to follow our own creative guidelines and wrote the book MaggieMooseTracks® Making Friends the way we wanted with not only a message, but lots of color inside & out! 

When Maggie and I came across an online art website called See.Me we were amazed by the creativity we saw in the artwork submitted. It was like candy. Sweet! Many of these artists online are requesting supporters for their artwork. Our goal wasn't to get supporters, but to share photos of Maggie and nature. We felt we had something to share. Poof! A few of our photos were selected to be in an International Art Exhibition in NYC called The Story of the Creative! It opens this week on July 25, 2013. Our photos are under the name MaggieMooseTracks® (Mari & Maggie). I owe it all to Maggie, my muse who is just herself no matter what. Best advise for us is to follow our own path of creativity. It's how we live creatively.

The Story of the Creative, is an exhibition featuring artists from around the world. The work will go on view starting July 25th at the See | Me Exhibition Space in New York City.

MaggieMoose: Universal Sky Dreams

Maggie's pawsability thought for the day:

"Look at the sky. We are not alone. The whole universe is friendly to us and conspires only to give the best to those who dream and work."

Abdul Kalam

  At the stop light we looked up at the sky. WOW! The sky was full of beautiful puffy clouds. Magnificent. I told Maggie it's a reminder the sky's the limit! As we went along we thought about how we had a dream to write a kid's book, but we wanted adults to enjoy it too-POOF! Our book MaggieMooseTracks® Making Friends was written, published and is for sale on Amazon and at a local bookstore called East West. We wanted an interactive bookmark to go with our book. We envisioned a colorful glossy front and a matte back that kids or adults could color in a couple characters from the book; Maggie & Flint-and it was created.

I can't remember when, but Maggie and I entered photos of her in an online art gallery called See | Me. Then poof out of the sky we were invited to show a few of Maggie's photos in an International Art Exhibition in NYC (New York City, NY) that opens July 25, 2013. The exhibition runs through September 10th and is called The Story of the Creative. 

Meanwhile, our book MaggieMooseTracks® Making Friends is getting translated into Japanese and due for release sometime in August 2013. MaggieMooseTracks® Book 2 of the book series  (a Christmas theme) is in the works for release in September 2013. We didn't stop there for we created our own global beach ball too! The sky really is friendly and the universe does really give the best to those who dream and work. Hugs & Licks! WOOF WOOF

MaggieMoose: Art of Self On Display World

Maggie's pawsability thought for the day:

 "The aim of art is to represent not the outward appearance of things, but their inward significance."

Aristotle

  Maggie's about to hit the art world in New York City on opening night July 25, 2013. Three  photos of Maggie will be on display in the International Exhibition of THE STORY OF THE CREATIVE. This show runs for seven weeks from July 25-September 10th. If you're in NYC please come see Maggie. We are humbly appreciative her photos were chosen. At the moment we don't know which three photos will be displayed. The inward significance of Maggie is the most important gift to the international art world. I think Maggie's eyes will draw people into her soul of love. Hugs & Licks, WOOF WOOF!
