I’m so pleased that I’ve got a couple of Art Shows coming up! The first is in Fontana on Saturday, 28 July at 15556 Summit Avenue. I’ll be doing a demo at my booth of Affirmation Cards. Stop by and see how I make these popular little pieces of motivational art! The second upcoming show…
Just a quick reminder — It’s not too late to enter the FABULOUS giveaway at Mixed Media May! The deadline has been extended until Saturday, 30 June!
A friend of mine lost her oldest brother a few days ago. He had a massive stroke and died a couple of days later. He was a fairly young man — in his mid 50s. What if I died in my mid 50s? That was a sobering thought! How many things would I regret – if…
CREATE lasted from Wednesday, 30 May, through Sunday, 03 June (I got there Tuesday night so I’d be well rested for the classes, and to have time to hang out with Carol and get to know her a bit). I’m just now blogging about it because there was no time during the retreat and, with…
I recently spent six days at CREATE Irvine, one of the art retreats put on by Cloth Paper Scissors each year. It was my first art retreat and I had sooo much fun! I hope I can do it again next year. I met lots of really nice people, including my roommate! Carol and I…
They say the only constant is CHANGE, and boy is that true of my life! In a little over five years, I’ve lived in three different cities, set myself up in the art business, started and stopped podcasting, and curated Mixed Media May. I’ve been to my first art retreat (more details to come about…
I know it’s been a few weeks since I updated my blog … And I know I was going to participate in the May Flower Challenge … Would you believe I just got busy? I have to admit — as much fun as it was, Mixed Media May took a lot of my time this month. Because it’s…
I had the most amazing time at Art in the Park in Redlands over the week-end! Not only did I have good sales, I had a chance to catch up with some old friends and make some new ones. The guy at the booth next to mine was incredible. He and his sons make…
Yesterday, I spent part of the day on Olvera Street taking pictures. I took tons of pictures — I’ll share more of my pictures after I go through them all, but I wanted to share my flower picture (for yesterday!) before too much more of the day go away from me. I don’t know what…
I took a photography composition class this afternoon in Los Angeles. After the lecture, we took a few minutes to take some pictures for the instructor to review. He didn’t love this picture as it was taken, but I cropped it to show the flowers better. I took this at his doorstep. Even though I…
