what we do

lil mr has found a new love, painting....

he lines his paints up just so and says; momma, colors. then tries to name them one by one. he likes to have a variety of brushes and a little bit of each color on his pallet. recently we've discovered its fun to paint on our selves as well as the paper. i bought him his own paints, brushes and sketchbook so he'd stay out of mine but that is not always what he wants :) its fun to share something like this with him... i love fresh paints and brushes and the messiness of it all + so does he!

animal party

for my godson's fifth birthday party, i was asked to create the kids take home goodies. i had only 2 objectives:  animal theme & to stay within a budget of $30.  i decided on making a treasure box for each with a different animal and to personalize it with their name.

 

i wanted to keep it fun so i drew with colored pencils in a cartoon sort of style on paper mache boxes.

each box contained; animal crackers, a few animal tattoos, 2 stretchy lizards, a "grow" animal, an animal card game, an animal figure, and a hippo cup with a giant gummy snake.

the kids loved them (and i met my objectives)!! they were a success! hooray for another wonderful party, happy fifth birthday my terrific nephew!

journals

one of my passions in life is to journal. in these journals i write to be free, to be lost and to be found. i draw and scribble and collage. they are who i am. very personal and true. some for sharing and some are private. but i also really enjoy making journals for others. maybe because i wish for everyone to have a place to call their own. a place for dreams, an escape, a healing ground.

Look at these! My work photographed and posted on a bLog! This is a first :) Thanks to the fabulous crew at Pulp Fashion! I am so looking forward to teaching a class there and making more of these fun books.
