ta da!!!! It took 3 days and a lot of hard work... and a LOT of rearranging ,, but my art studio got a good cleaning... I took this picture an hour ago... it isn't this clean anymore!!! .. but I am on to the next project.

This is part of the town of 24 little buildings... they are an advent 'calendar' .. The numbers are on the back side... if you go to my etsy store.. you will find them there!!.. This is one thing I have been busy with.

you can always teach an old dog a new trick

I have done artwork my WHOLE life... I have spent a lot of money on art supplies... but never on REAL GOOD markers... I am in the middle of a project and needed some additional marker colors... so I bought some GOOD markers.. just a few.. some colors I didn't have in my 'not so good ' set of markers.... OH MY!! what a difference good supplies make..... There was NO WAY i could go back to my 'not so good' markers... so I invested in some good markers and wow, wow, wow... soon you will see them on etsy!!

beautiful indeed

wow! what beauty is all around us

promises , promises!!!

soon.... something new will be coming soon!!! I have something for Christmas that will be put on Etsy... I love them . hope you will too.

dreams, castles, and lofty thinking

Good morning.. Isn't this castle pretty... I don't think I ever showed it to you!!.. I designed it... stuck it in a box and basically forgot about it. I so wish I could design more of these.. I thought it would make a pretty wedding centerpiece. and I guess I still think that!!! Anyway I am just enjoying showing it off. Since I know you are all waiting for news of my 'project' and I don't have anything to say about that one yet!.. I almost put up a picture of snow .. I am waiting very impatiently for some more of the white stuff. Today I am off to the north country where it is raining and too warm to turn into snow, but I still enjoy my journeys north. So have a great wonderful, marvelous, fantastic day ... and maybe ,, just maybe my project will soon appear on these 'hallowed walls!!'.

Beauty in the eyes of the beholder

Sometimes right outside your very own back door there is great beauty. This little shot of color is something I walk by every time I walk to the garage.
