Remains of the Day On-Line Journal Class

Remains of the Day Class by Mary Ann Moss:

So far, SOOOOO fun :). I started 2 books! I am itching to get the covers done enough to add the tie and be able to start on the pages. Maybe today? Then onto the new page videos!

Multitasking?

I'm at work catching up on x-ray printing and lunch and the on line journal class videos. Hmmmmm

Christmas is Comming

MMMM Christmas party at Opals for work this year. The Brulet said "Enjoy"....

So I did :)

I put up my tiny tree this year...I'm liking it. Nothing like some lights to make you smile!

Art Clinic Art Christmas Party

Had the Chistmas party at the Art Clinic. I had a lot of fun! It is so rare lately to have the time to just do art. So rare infact that I got all worked up with the idea of getting something done or finished, brought a ton of stuff to sort through or finish, and ended up starting a new project which I got a bit intimidated by and did not finish....not even close. So my only goal I completed was the ornament.

Calling this bird "the New Bird". It was gifted to a very happy participant in the ornament exchange. I threw the feet on last minute before the trade. It turned out pretty good. I hope to find the time to finish something sometime soon that I had started LOL

Art Party at the Set Clinic

Still trying to finish the ornament for the exchange. Cutting it close LOL. I got less than an hour. It is a bird if you can't tell. Hehe

Trailers are Finished!

I lost one to a bad chain link, but 4 made it and they look great! Yay! Now onto the next project: ornament exchange on the 10th. I am excited but nervous about getting it done and achieving my expectations. Being a mommy and an artist is so hard, but wonderful.

Silly Girl

MADDIE AND ME HANGING OUT AT THE COFFEE SHOP WAITING TO GO TO HER SCHOOL (tECALOTE dAY cARE) for Thankgiving Party.

Ealy Thanksgiving at the Beach

The gathering was great! It is so great just to see everyone!!!! Seems like so long. I wish we could get together more often. I feel like I did not get to visit with everyone, but that happens a lot lately hehe. Maddie loved watching the waves from the wall.

Madison and her cousins Gregory, Riley and..

( the newest to the McNutt's) Eric....aaaawe!!

Got a Little More Done on that Mural...

...with a little help. hehe

I'm liking it, but I still have a bunch more work to do. I had hoped to get it done for Queen of Arts....yeah right! I had a few bracelets started too hehe. I do have high hopes for next year though! I took a day off and had some Baby help last Monday and it was crazy how much I accomplished! I made 3 trailor pendants for Imagine, finished a 4th one that was almost complete and found one already made. Now I just need some studio time to do all the finishing. I am giving myself the goal of bringing them to SB by Monday. Seems doable. Wish me luck!!

Painting Again

This is a terrible picture...don't look at me LOL. Okay...so I started a new painting....and its HUGE hehehe. It is exciting to paint again. I like it so far. I painted today on it, but I have not loaded the pictures yet. The next step is the grass. I sure hope I get it at least close to done by next weekend. It could happen. Stay tuned.

Test test 2

Mother's Day Gift

I made one of these for my mom last year too. I am totally amazed I found time to make it, and that I like the way it came out. I need to find more of these purfume bottles. I love making these, althpough they are super hard. Takes a lot of patience to get everything layered right. It never goes the way I plan.

DJ's Cool Cool Class!!

Blogger is being a bit buggy....Here are some pics I took of the book I made in DJ Pettitt's "the layered view" class. I really liked the techniques and was super stoaked to come out of the class with a pretty complete book. I do plan to add a bunch more, especially to the insde.

All in all it was a great class!! It felt so good to be able to do some art again! It has been so hard to find the time to do anything lately.
