Behind the Scenes with Judge Penny Brown Reynolds from Family Court with Judge Penny

My friend, Celebrity Hairstylist Bryson Conely, and I had a chance to glam up Judge Penny Brown Reynolds for her NAACP luncheon last week. The Judge is the star of the hit show Family Court with Judge Penny and Bryson is her hairstylist on the show. I love court shows and it's a blast to be able to work with one of my favorite judges.....

A Real Haircut

My Friend, Michelle, decided to get her hair cut after about 5 years of wearing it really long. Actually, the last time I cut it was about 2 1/2 years ago and I cut it to the middle of her back. So in 2 1/2years it grew about 3 feet. Amazing.....anyway, Michelle said it was getting heavy and uncomfortable and that it was time to change...... so I cut off 2 large and heavy braids and gave her a really cute cut.

President Obama Artwork

My dear friend and Artist, Dan Wooster, has created this amazing likeness of our new President. I can say that I have never had a picture of a president in my house but with my Obama obsession, this new art piece thrilled me. Dan is known for his large pieces, usually 5ft by 3ft and larger. This piece is 11inches tall and 7 inches wide. It is painted on 1 inch thick wood which gives it a slight 3-D effect. Each one is slightly different, but Dan captures the President's likeness, suberbly. These will be limited edition pieces, so hurray and get yours today. You can call Dan at 818 398-2064 to order your piece.

Mr. President

Wow!!! Words cannot explain the joy and pride I felt while glued to the TV witnessing history unfold while watching the inaugural events...... At last, we have a President that has poise and grace, humility and charm, confidence and intelligence!! I was mesmerized as I watched the new first couple (a real example of a loving couple) drive and then walk down the parade route. I'm glad I didn't have to brave the cold....but I found myself taking pictures of the TV as if I was on the parade route.......

My very own Shepard Fairey

One of the first posters I saw of President Obama was the

Shepard Fairey design that is now famous. I fell in love with Shepard Fairey's design and was able to get one of the limited edition posters. Now you can have one of his designs done in your own image. Make your own "Obamicon" — your image in a style inspired by Shepard Fairey's iconic poster.
