Whether it is the romantic love of a couple; the unconditional love of a parent and child or the inexplicable bond of true friendship, I pray that you all experience some form of LOVE this day ♥
I HEART You!
I sat in my studio yesterday trying to get inspired by Valentine’s Day and do something artsy but not too literal. I am committed to using up the piles of “stuff” I have accumulated over the years. A while back, I found these sweet paper mache hearts in a discount bin and bought them with no particular idea in mind. …
I am brave
A sweet little gift for a sweet little friend. These words have taken on a whole new meaning for me the past two years. It is my mantra now. It is the tiny affirmation that I whisper to myself daily, urging me onward. “Promise me you will always remember – You are braver than you believe, stronger than you seem …
Good Morning Sunshine!
Just wanted to say Good Morning! This was the view out my back porch this morning . . . doesn’t get any better than this! I am loving my iPhone4 Camera (when I remember to turn HDR on) but I especially love my new Instagram App that my friend Roben-Marie told me about! My photos have never looked better. A …
Be Still . . .
Don’t know where this week went. My commitment to blog at least three times per week went right out the window! I am crushed that I couldn’t spend more time creating and tried to figure out why. I went over the past week’s activities . . . house renovations, my son’s college tours and applications, mountains of laundry, helping …

A Cross Through a Window . . .

Besides, my 17 year old son had seen enough Renaissance Art to last two lifetimes and I had to bribe him with a little field trip. But first, one more shot of Florence . . . Other …
Sigh . . . Labor Day Already {or} What I Did on My Summer Vacation
Where did it go? Summer was just here . . . it seems like we were just celebrating Memorial Day and now it’s September and Labor Day Weekend is over and the kids are all heading back to school and {sigh} we will be looking at Christmas before we can blink again. So just like my son, I will write …
Sketchbook Project 2012
What if you could submit your artwork to an organization to be exhibited and it would not be turned down? What if you were told it would be displayed and it would travel and it would be SEEN and there would be no judge or jury–only people who would appreciate it and admire it? What if you knew your art …
Half Retreat – Women & Art
What I learned this past weekend . . . Art is meant to share Creativity is contagious Laughter purges the soul Heart talks are healing Tears are cleansing Sleep is overrated Meals are not about nutrition, they are about fellowship The smell of mod podge, paint and staz-on are perfume and especially . . . the love of a friend …
