Guess who is on the team?

 Heyyyy! Ya girl has been selected as a design team member! Can you guess which one?

Need a little hint? Here it is:



I have been selected for Helmar Adhesive's design team! This company is based in Australia and is an Australian, family-owned business. I love that! Keepin' it family-oriented.

Helmar has been extremely generous in providing me my very first shipment of products! And ya know what this means...an abundance of mixed-media art tutorials for YOU...and you, and yoooou! ;-)

Stay on the lookout, my friends! I know how much you value top-notch creative projects and it's my pleasure to have them for you. My first project will be published in April <---a few days after me birthday!


Peace + Love

Funky Calligraphy, Adventures in Hand-Lettering

No more cringing at the sight of your own handwriting! 

Wouldn't it be nice to incorporate your *own* lettering in your artwork?

I know that you are familiar with my work + know that I use a plethora of lettering techniques, image transfers, motivational words, phrases, mantras, and also, numbers.

But did you know that you can, literally, convey emotions through yours hands?

That's right - your hands! I'll explain in this new tutorial, published over on the Creating Mixed Media Art website...

Some days I just goof around...

Today was one of dem days! Why? Because I have received some awesome news concerning new directions in my art biz.

Can you imagine someone just dancing, for like, an hour straight?! OK, I admit: I dance like that all the time, with my goofy self, but today was extra special...so special that I chucked confetti all over my studio. LOL! 



...before I leave to continue my jam fest, I just want to speak these encouraging words to you, my friend:

ALWAYS aim for your best. Never allow anyone or anything to stop you from blossoming into what you are meant to be. Receive the blessing while it's in your favor. Yes! Do it right now! Claim it as yours by speaking it into existence.

I know firsthand how the power of FAITH works.

I will be announcing the news to my lovely newsletter subscribers, first. So, if you're not a subscriber, go ahead and click on the newsletter image (at the end of this post) to secure your spot on my list. Thank you!

Of course, you're welcome to bring a friend (or two) so we can all celebrate together! You better believe gifts will be involved!
