Of health

I’ve been working hard the past week. I’ll share photos tomorrow, since I’m not planning to take photos this evening! I prefer the daylight background with my lighting. I have been working on some drawings and I have been creating some cell phone purses for my friend’s shop that will open later this month in [...]

Catching up

Whew! I bet you thought I had been eaten by my new easel… Well, no. Not at all. I actually have just been focused on art, continuing to clean out my junk that I don’t use, and busy with friends. Here’s the update: On Friday, Angie and I went to the Thunderbird Art & Wine [...]

Checking in, but not quite finished…

Yesterday and today, I’ve gotten no art done, but I’m feeling quite accomplished, as I focus on organizing my space. I was very clear about what needed to go and didn’t need to go. Yesterday, after I reorganized and prioritized where things go on the shelves, I took some time to finally put up some [...]

Some cards and ATCs

I found my muse. I think she’s been stuck under the stickers I’m trying to sort through… No matter, I dug her out of the rubble… This weekend I played with Color Mists from Outside The Margins. I received them from a friend in a secret sister swap. (Thanks Christy!) I think they were just [...]

Time flies – update; Manic Monday reminder;

Well, my apologies to everyone for not getting back to you with scans of the collages my friends have done with my collage sheets. Things have been a bit nutty in our house. We had guests this weekend until to Tuesday. And I had a dental cleaning Tuesday that took a lot longer than I [...]

Laptop protection; collage sheets; Manic Monday announcement!

Hi there! I know. I’ve left you hanging. I didn’t post after my day out with Angie. But Angie did such a great job of describing our day, I couldn’t have done a better job and, well, I figured I’d like to her blog so you could see our day. To check it out, look [...]

Oh, I’m a Klutz

Yes, I really am. And I cannot believe that this has not happened before. What is “this”? Well, it’s spilling the water canister where my brushes soak after I use them. I spilled blue/green water all over the floor and carpet in the studio. And yet, I just had to laugh. It is not going [...]

Best Laid Plans… And The Tag

I wrote this yesterday: I might be quiet this weekend. I have a friend who lives in Ft. Collins, CO, Tracey. She has planned an artsy craftsy weekend for some of us to help her celebrate her 40th Birthday! And three of us are supposed to fly in – two from AZ, one from N. [...]

Happy New Year! And Art Goals!

It’s 2007. I’m amazed at how quickly time passes when you don’t have to produce an entire magazine each month. I have been allowing myself to become completely consumed by my health, my art, and in finding out what is important to me. For me, that means that 2006 was a good year. Yes, this [...]
