I've been featured!!!

This week I had the honor of being the guest artist over at the Creative Therapy blog! Yea! I created a painting especially for this (you've seen some work in progress pics here on the blog) This was the creative catalyst I chose:

What’s the one lesson you’d want to teach your children? (If you don’t have them, what would you want to teach them if you had them?)

So go on over and check out the finished painting and the story behind it. Thanks so much Karen for asking me to contribute!

Featured on Art Talk Radio

Today I was featured on a wonderful new talk radio show! It's Niki Jackson's ArtTalkRadio and it's "a podcast for mixed media artists and crafters who love to learn new techniques, listen to their favourite artists being interviewed and lot's more". Today was the first time it was on the air and it will be a weekly show every Monday at 9:00 am Pacific Standard Time. I hung out in the chat room during the show (Aiden was home from school today because of it being President's Day, so I couldn't call in), but she's asked me to do pre-recorded interview for a later show! Yea!

So give her show a listen and don't forget to tune in for a new show each week. If you happen to miss the live show, they are all recorded so you can listen any time you like! Cool!!!!

Well, I'd better get a move on.....my students for my online class starting today are chompin' at the bit to get started. ;) I gotta get the first lesson up for them and many of them are in other countries and it's already Tuesday for them!! Gotta love the internet!!! xoxo

How-to Make a Treasury: the Nuts and Bolts

One of my prints was used as part of a treasury pic on an article published yesterday in Etsy's zine "The Storque". It's a great article and if you've ever wondered how to make your very own Etsy treasury, then scoot on over and check it out. :) Etsy :: The Storque :: How-To :: How-to Make a Treasury: the Nuts and Bolts.

I'm on the Trunkt home page!!!

Wow! Imagine my surprise when I just offhandedly decided to check to see if my new images had been approved on Trunkt and found one of my prints on the homepage!!! Yea!! It's on the first row, all the way on the right. If you've never heard of Trunkt, in their own words they're "a trusted resource for forward-thinking buyers of art and design products and for retail professionals seeking out emerging creative talent". They're huge supporters of independent artists, designers, and other creative entrepreneurs. There's so much creative talent there, so if you haven't checked it out yet you really should! As a side note, I finally managed to finish this painting today. So I'll be posting progress pics and the finished painting...probably not tonight though 'cause my hubby just called and is on his way home early tonight and wants to go out to eat. So I'll be back with all the progress pics tomorrow....have a good night ya'll! :)
