African Twig Doll

this is an African Doll I made out of twigs that my grandson and I collected

Feelings

This is a pencil drawing I did about a year ago. It was practice piece for an art class I was taking. It was a great class.

Suziblu Workshop

Click on the above YouTube video to view a slideshow of the Suziblu Mermaids by the Sea workshop that my daughter and I attended this past weekend.

Suzi held an awsome 2 day workshop. There were about 20 women. Suzi's class was fun, inspiring, supportive and I wish the class didn't have to end. We crammed so much into the 2 days. First off it took 9 hours in the car to get there. The day of the Workshop Suzi welcomed us with open arms and a nuturing environment in which to create.

The laughter was insane. We all went home with aching cheeks from laughing so much, and for so long. It was a great weekend.

My Daughters Work of Art

Here is my daughters latest and greatest work of art. He was born on March 24 and I am so in love. I had been pleasantly side-tracked helping them out for a bit and loving every moment. To have shared this time with my daughter has meant the absolute world to me. A very special time. I do have to admit however that I had forgotten what total sleep deprivation felt like. Holy crap!!

He is not letting mommy sleep very much but that will soon change. They grow up so quickly so you must capture and enjpy every moment that you possibly can. Create wonderful memories, indulge in parenthood, and watch the miracle unfold right before your eyes. It is truely the hardest thing that you will ever love to do; Being a parent; It's huge

Post Card

This is a post card that I made. She will be flying across the United States to reside in Lousiana. I am beginning to work on some bigger pieces and am really enjoying the larger scale. I am hoping to be posting more art as I create more time and space in my day.

Mixed Media on Wood

I love working on this wood. The wood is poplar and Prismacolors blend really nicely on it. You can get poplar in various sizes at Home Depot. It is less expensive at Home Depot than the pieces you can purchase at Michaels. I am still having so much fun creating these pretty girls that I learned taking the suziblu class. I am not willing or ready to move on to something else. I have not yet reached my limit of interest; there are so many lil door hangers that still need to be created, and wall hangings. Where will it go, where will this road lead to.

Merry Christmas

It is Christmas time. I would like to wish everyone the warmest of holiday seasons, and the very best year ahead. Bless you all and thank you for visiting my blog

This is a mixed media piece. I thought it would make a cute door hanger, so a door hanger it will be. I will add a chain to hang it from.

I am pleased with this; it feels complete; tells a bit of a story, and thats where I think I would like to take these. They feel sort of story book like. I have taken what I have learned in the class and incorperated into a cohesive piece. I have been learning and stumbeling and bumbeling along the way. Hubby came up with the idea of creating a book of dolls from around the world. Fun project but for a later date as I have way too many projects on my plate at present.

Here is a work in progress. This is my first not practice piece for the workshop I am taking. It is only the face and line drawing of the rest. I will be adding layers and layers. A really fun technique. So glad I took the class.

Sunday Sept. 21

It is Sunday. I spent all day yesterday getting this blog situated. I am still rearranging, adding stuff and messing about in here. I will not be working on line much next week as I am having a bit of surgory and will probably not feel up to it. I would like to put up an array of projects that I have created, just so you can get an idea of what I spend my days doing.

Original Watercolor

It is Saturday September 20 2008. I am finally getting this blog up and going. There is a chill in the air and I am glad that I have spent the entire day inside. Fall has deffinately arrived. We have mild winters here so I don't mind them so much. I like the rain; there is something really peaceful about it to me. I am hoping my blog inspires me to do more art.
