Abstract

Abstract pretty much sums up me lately! Here is a pic of one of my latest canvases. I think it is done. It looks some what different "in real life". There is some mica powder in it. So it is hard to catch that shimmer.

Great Mail Day, Thanks Kim!


I keep forgetting to post the wonderful goodies that Kim sent to me. Just for participating in the group. Hey I guess I get a gold star for playing well with others!!
Here is her blog http://ankira.blogspot.com/.

Remember Headstands?

I remember how much fun it was to jump & tumble around. Carefree & laughing.
This is just a quick sketch in response to the prompt Headstands on http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Blissfully_Art_Journaling/?yguid=293415097 Kim provides some great prompts some are fun, some are deep thinking & some are globally thinking.
I really enjoy art journaling!! I have some canvases that are looking at me, trying to tempt me! I will have to listen to them soon!

A Little of This & A Little of That

This is the large goodie bag I received from Sarah Whitmire. Visit her at http://www.souljournaling.com/



So I have been neglecting my blog. Maybe that's a good sign that I am enjoying life!? I have recently joined Facebook. I am not sure why. Maybe to get my artwork out there. I have a myspace as well and I have not signed into that in ages.




I am trying to become educated on the use of Photoshop Elements. http://groups.yahoo.com/group/TheLatestTrendsinMixedMediaArts/ is where Cindy Powell is giving basic instructions.




I just got The Artist Way by Julia Cameron and am liking what I read so far. http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Blissfully_Art_Journaling/ is where Kim Owens is leading group discussions about this book.
