March on Steroids
I am alive! And I have a lot to share, So I will split this in few blog posts - easy to digest.
Working on my new series “All the Hats We Wear” that celebrates women’s resilience. Here are first 2 paintings. They are 66’’ X 46” each and It will be total of 12. I have decided to presale the whole series, it works as early investment - so prices will be lower than the galley price when I show them. How? simply reply to this email with your interest. I am also working on showing the series in a museum like space with the whole performance on women empowerment. Stay tuned for this - It will be amazing I promise! If you want to support this project in anyway - let’s talk! (just click reply to this email)
If you are in Chicago here are 2 events you don’t want to miss

3/17/2023 6-10PM Zhou-B Art Center, My work will be in exhibit “ Behind The Brush” - curated by Sergio Gomez, Few amazing artist - DON’T MISS ! 1029 W 35th, Chicago, IL
And the best one tor the end is below - I wanted to uplift other women artist for International Women’s Day ( month ). It started as an idea to show few friends artist in my studio- small size works 12’’ X 12” ….
Well, Now we have XCED Design and Build hosting this production with more than 40 international, national and local female artist…and we have few woman business supporting with wine and food and printed material. I n this process I realized again how happy it makes me to support others, to share what I know and network I builded and am building. And to remind my self - 16 years ago when I mowed to Chicago from Belgrade, Serbia I only knew my sister….- I am so grateful for all artist and supporters around. I will truly cherish this moments forever, and I am super excited to see where this takes us - because, If you know me-you know there is a GREAT PLAN for this! … SEE YOU THERE !!!

What a week
Started with amazing AQUA JET facial by https://www.acceleratedaesthetics.com/
Than I had a chance to talk with few curators of some Art Centers - I am preparing a great new series of work focusing on WOMANS LIFE called “ALL THE HATS WE WEAR “. I really want it to be in a museum, correction - I see it in MCA Chicago - second floor , jut the whole space - filled with woman, empowered, putting their power to work.
So I AM ON IT .
I just need to meet the right curator who will be moved by artist who have similar motives like me - and than you can come see my work in the museum and be a part of something bigger than you and me! BOOM
Also - I am cleaning the studio, adding few more plants ( read TREES ) and creating more tropical environment. It is so cold here in Chicago- my IDEAS almost got frozen ( NEVER).
Something new - I will be hosting a small group workshop in the studio on 2/9/2023 7-9pm - space is limited to 5-6 people , If you want to join - here is a link CLICK HERE
Love you - BOJITT
It's my B-Day and THE BLOG is born
Hi dear reader,
This is my first blog post EVER!
Help Me Name this BABY blog, please! ( add any Ideas in the comments, this is the space for all of you! )
Today I turned 46. And I will be super quick because I have to get ready to go celebrate my birthday with my boys ( my son and my boyfriend).
All I wanted to share is - I will be here every Monday, writing about life, ART, LIFE, HEALTH, Style, Travel, my new works , business. I will be sharing what I find Interesting , what I am reading etc. I will be bringing people in from all different backgrounds - and career paths. I want you to have fun and find feel inspired.
If you are an artist - You want to be here!
If you are not - You need to be here.
Because everyone needs at least ONE artist friend in their circle - we bring different perspective, we bring a voice, and we change the world - we make it a better and happier place. If you agree - let’s enjoy the ride, If you don’t agree - find a different blog and have a good day.
See you next week !!!
Love ,
Bojitt
