Workshop Magic…

December 12, 2014

Completed Cover

There is an advantage to a one-on-one workshop with an artist at their studio. You get the attention you need especially, if it's a whole new process you're learning. You get your answers quickly and on the spot and it takes your creativity up a whole other notch! I've been creating more elaborate art journals and falling more and more in love with book art and the making of books. I wanted to take my work to another level.

Indigene Art Forms Mother Love

It's been a busy time for me; creating new works in the studio taking a couple of online classes and de-cluttering my bedroom! All in all a productive time. I've also been connecting with my friends more, both on-line and in person, I guess warm weather and sunshine is a great motivator. A couple of weeks ago, an amazing woman, Deanna Jinjoe, from A New Day Art Studio invited me to participate in a Blog Tour, one that's been going on for a while, with many wonderful studios involved! So in order to participate, I'll answer a few questions and then introduce the next couple of ladies who will continue on the Blog Tour. So here we ... Continue Reading »
