Holy C*%#!!!! How can it be Friday?!?

Okay, I can NOT believe it's already Friday- this week just FLEW by!!!  I guess that's what mach 5 will do for you!  Now if it could just uplift the jowls a bit and feather away a few pounds and wrinkle lines- I'd be frigging fabulous!!!!  Just kidding!!  My inner muse is truly trying to embrace all of me!

This morning has already been stellar!  I have boldly gone where I have not ventured before and made my own listings on etsy!  I know, what the hell has happened to me, right?  I have absolutely no idea! But, I am loving it!  I'll do more later tonight after I get home from teaching my "leather n links" Artful Spirits class at Fineline.  I do have a few more pieces to post!  My Be Fearless muse being one... just not sure I'm ready to risk losing her!  (How ridiculous is THAT???  Create a Be Fearless Muse and then be afraid to sell her??????)  Okay- letting go of that crap right now!

I will be listing the Muse later!
Off to work outside today, teach later and enjoy that glass of wine while I list some pieces on etsy.... in keeping with the spirit of Halloween... I am definitely frightening myself!!!!! ;)

2009- no such thing as a fall funk!!!!

I took the last week I thought I could incorporate pumpkins safely and we studied line with the I'm an artist group... well, it turned out to be 2 sisters because of cold season!  Here's the great part... it just doesn't matter how many!  I chatted with them about line and  about lines on a pumpkin not being straight, but curved.  We looked at our straight lines from last week's Mondrian/line lesson and even counted curved lines.... then Avery says to her sister and me, "Did you know that if a pumpkin has more lines it has more seeds?" Neither of us had heard that- I was so impressed that she shared that and was quite confident with herself!

I do believe my fall funk has been put on hold because of these incredible young artists I get to share my time with.... I have no room in my life for a fall funk this year and I am loving it!!!!!

Monday, Monday...can't trust that day!!!!

Well, I was in my art room waiting with all my bells and whistles and of my 3 students- 2 were sick and well, one was just "mia"!!!  It does give me more time to fine tune the lesson on portraits~ so it's really not a bad thing!!!  Hopefully, James and Julia will feel much better and Rose will be back with bells on next week!!!!  Today is a tissue paper collage still life for my 4 & 5 year olds!!!  Gotta love that!
