Revel in the Moment Journal – Keep an Art Journal
My Revel In the Moment Journal page from January 4. I LOVE this page! It rarely happens that I love a page, but finally here is. It started out with a minor disaster as the vintage sheet music started disintegrating almost immediately. I had to add a layer of gel medium to hold things together. [...]
Strathmore Workshop with Traci Bautista-Keep an Art Journal
Here is where I ended week one of the Strathmore workshop with Traci Bautista. Traci made two videos for week one and I spent most of the week re-organizing my space to get a computer in my art room. I figure I could doodle for another movie or two on this but doubt I will. [...]
Happy New Year! Keep an Art Journal for 2012
There are so many, many free or nearly free online art classes that I may have OD’d. Over done it I mean. Here is where I am so far: Kelly Kilmer’s – Revel in the Moment – $25.00 I have already started this class. I made a new journal just for this class using some [...]
Studio Re-vamp 2011|Keep an Art Journal
I am starting a new online art journaling class with Kelly Kilmer called Revel in the Moment. I will make a separate journal for this class.

Junk Mail Book with Carla Sonheim #2 – Keep an Art Journal
Day 6 of my 5-day online class with Carla Sonheim. Well if you count the weekend it’s day 8 of my 5-day class. I believe in getting my money’s worth! It took me ruining some painted paper to get the second technique figured out, so I painted an additional batch of junk mail. Now that [...]

I thought I had everything lined up, saved junk mail, gathered supplies, cleaned up studio, re-thought my schedule…ah well. I won’t go through step-by-step but here is what I have learned in [...]

Journalfest 2011 – My Miraculous Vacation – Keep an Art Journal
It’s a miracle – I got to go to Journalfest 2011! Sometimes miracles feel like a lot of work, but in the end a miracle is a miracle and who is gonna say no to that? Getting to Journalfest was a major part of the experience! I left Denver in a heavy snowstorm, getting de-iced [...]
More Art Journal Pages ala Kelly Kilmer|Keep An Art Journal
I just downloaded a new photo editor software and am trying it out. Mainly all I need to do is crop, rotate and re-size. But I need to do all that without sacrificing the picture quality. The new software is GIMP and is a free download. My man says it does everything Photoshop does but [...]
