Organization Week has turned into Organize Every Week This week I made foam core boxes to organize my stamp drawer by using the tutorial my business partner, Lorri F wrote. I did not like making the boxes – but BOY do I love having my stamps organized in a way I can find them and [...]

Strathmore Workshop I with Traci Bautista – final lesson
WOW! That was FUN! In the end that is. The Strathmore Online Workshop 1 is finished. Traci Bautista taught this class and she put together a great workshop for us. I think I am past drawing glamorous dream girls. My Mom taught me to draw girls when I was about 8 and I must have [...]
Art Journal Every Day – Keep an Art Journal
I am participating with Julie Fei-Fan Balzer’s Art Journal Every Day. The idea is to get you to do at least 10 minutes of art every day. Of course once I get started I generally keep going. At my house winter brings earlier dinners and long, long evenings. Yes, yes I know it’s been this [...]
Organization Week with Julie Fei-Fan Balzer – Display My Art
When I got home from my three-day weekend and got the laundry done I rushed over to read Day 5, 6 and 7 of Organization Week. I found that I had done most of the steps in the process of Day 1-4! I will qualify that statement with the fact that I had read Nat’s [...]
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. [...]
Re-Use, Upcyle, Add Another Layer or Two – Keep an Art Journal
I always carry a Moleskine journal with me when I am out and about. Not the Art Journal type, but the thin papered, writing in kind. I keep a running list of ‘to dos’ and ideas. Yes, yes, I have an iPad and an iPod etc. but I was trained on paper and that is [...]
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. On the way to making my journal I decided to reorganize my studio. Enough climbing over things and reaching around things to find a spray bottle, a drawer of paper [...]
Journaling for Relaxation – Keep an Art Journal
This is the time of year, from December 11 through January 1, that I take time to reflect and assess what’s so up to this point and then create the New Year. This is my quiet time. I thought that in this quiet time I will be quiet and post mostly pictures of what I [...]
Junk Mail Book with Carla Sonheim #3 – Keep an Art Journal
I am really struggling with the drawing portion of the Carla Sonheim Junk Mail Book. I made a cover that has nothing to do with the class, but I thought that maybe I could distract myself and loosen up and relax into the puzzle drawing. Good excuse anyway. I used one of the Artist Cellar [...]
