Thank you for being my friend!

I hope you are well!  
I'm feeling energized and happy, since it feels and looks like Spring here!  

Today, I want to share a bit of my new Skillshare class with you!  <3
I took one of the lessons from my class, Whimsical Portraits: Paint a Beautiful Watercolor Portrait, and posted it on Youtube for you!! Yay!

I hope you are well!  

I have a little gift for you!  It's a free printable collage sheet for your art journaling journey.  

I hope you are well today.  
The weather is changing - cooler days are coming.  In fact, it's been quite cold for the past few days! (Well, at least for Texas...)  

I've been thinking of the upcoming holidays.  The sights and smells of Thanksgiving, the cheery lights of Christmas, connecting with friends and family once again.  Finding that just-right gift for my loved ones.  

With these thoughts swirling in my head, I was reminded of the handmade watercolors that I purchased recently from Designs by Rachel Beth Etsy shop.

Happy Saturday!
I just wanted to pop in and let you know I put together a little video about Art Bundles for Good just for you.  I hopped over to the website, and looked over all of the classes that are included!!

I want to share my thoughts, and my excitement!  And let you decide for yourself if it's for you.  I don't want you to miss out on an a-mazing lineup of artists and makers!!

​Let's Chat about Art Bundles for Good!

P. S.  Check out the Art Bundles website, and John Bardos's message here.  :)

And I have a free printable for you!  Keep reading!

I hope you are well :)

​I am well.  I've been busy with family - the new grandson, teaching my youngest daughter to drive, and other "real life" stuff. 

I've also been busy on the arty side of life.  I'm loving exploring art, creating classes, and soaking up the artwork my students are sharing! 

You know, I never really saw myself as a teacher.  In fact, I've often resisted the idea.  But, the online world - the new path to teaching and connecting - has changed all of that. 
I'm finding that I love teaching art, sharing my process, and encouraging you, as much as I love exploring art. 

So, I want to say thank you!  You have rocked my world in such a great way.  I sooo appreciate your support, encouragement, and willingness to share your time with me.  :)

Today, I thought we could play a little catch-up.  As I said, I've been busy since we last chatted.

I hope you are well and creating!!

Today, I would like to share a wonderful watercolor artist with you. 

This amazing artist is Angela Fehr.  I have never had the opportunity to be in her classes in person, but I consider her my mentor.  She makes watercolor so fun - easy and inviting!  She has a loose, fluid style that is something I hope to achieve in my own painting.

​And, she is having a $700 GIVEAWAY !!
Watercolor paint, paper, brushes - talk about a supply haul!!  How fabulous is that?!!  To hop straight to the $700 giveaway, click here!
The giveaway deadline is January 31, 2018.

Make this your best year yet!!
