Here is a silly polymer clay piece that I made from the distorted remnants of a face cane. Polymer clay is so much fun to work with and so forgiving that it is an equally great medium for people who are new to art and artists looking for inspiration to loosen up. I will be [...]
One extra session later, these cheerful and hard-working girls completed their paintings. I am very happy with their ability to develop an idea and see it through to the finished work. Both Sam and Sabrina tried new techniques and found great success in carrying off what they sought to acheive. I like watching them make [...]

I finished the postcards/fliers for my Holiday Sale and Party on Friday, December 14th. Tomorrow I am going to put some colorful lights on the outside of the studio. I’m considering my options for the yard and patio and I think I will make luminarias/farolitos for the pathway and maybe set up a small, [...]

This Peepeye has been added to my Etsy shop, peepeyes.etsy.com. I’m [...]

I’ve been placing a lot of items in my shop at etsy, things I have made in the last year or two. There are categories for jewelry, home decor items, paintings, prints and cards, and peepeyes and li’l critters with items available. I am working on adding items to the shop. Look for handpainted tee [...]
I’ve been getting my display together and beginning to price items for the Sunday Market. I think it will look pretty good, but I’m bothered by the forecast of rain. These polymer clay pieces will be fine getting wet! They are just a few of the many small artworks I will have available. Actually, everything [...]

I’m almost well again! I even went out today! I dropped off some cards and Peepeyes at a gallery and talked to the wonderful owner about which paintings she would like to hang for the upcoming May Festival of the Arts. Then I went out for a pizza and bought a birthday gift. After [...]

I am getting over some nasty bug. I had some incredible ideas to write about while I had the fever, but now I can’t remember any of it. Something about art and something somebody said and something I read…oh well, maybe it’ll come back later. So far the day has yielded these little peepeyed [...]
