<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"> It's been a while since I've done an art challenge. </span> <span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">This past year has been a whirlwind. Not only did we design and build our dream home but we did it while living 240 miles away from our build site. We sold our home down state in 10 days, moved to a little cabin on a lake, and made our final move in September. I've started a new job while trying to pack and unpack 28 years of memories, and set up the beautiful studio my husband built for me.</span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">Last October I received an e-mail from Mary Nasser, the Social Media Coordinator for StencilGirl Products. I was thrilled when she asked me if I would be interested in being a guest designer on their blog StencilGirl Talk. Yes! I'd love to! over the months I've been working on creating more depth in my art, working in layers, stencils and molding paste are perfect for this. I created this piece for the cover of my 2016 Art Journal along with a tutorial of the process. You can find it here at this link.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">Lots and Lots of changes going on this year but I'm still making time in my studio for a little "Art Therapy"!

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">It's that time of year again! the days are getting shorter, the air is getting cooler. Halloween is right around the corner. I finally got a little quality time to myself in my studio this weekend, and I've loved every second of it! </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">This "Mucha Inspired Halloween Piece" is a mixed media on a 6 1/2 x 15 illustration board. As you know I love all of the Graphics 45 papers and have incorporated the "Rare Oddities Collection" in my art.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">I've also included metal gears from Tim Holtz and other metal charms to fit my theme. For depth I used Golden molding paste, and a two part crackle, painted into the design, and a lot of ink line work. finally I sprayed it with a workable fixative and used a matte varnish to finish it off. </span></div>

It's been a while since I posted anything new on my blog! I've been frustrated with my out dated computer and finally figured out how to post from my I-Pad! Yay! Me! Now I have a lot of catching up to do. The first of the year I started posting my journal pages in the "Documented Life Project" This is one of my pages! New techniques, new ideas! </div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Last April while listening to Ann Delisi's "Essential Music" on Detroit Public Radio. She was </span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">conducting an interview with a representative from the Public Pool Community Art Space in Hamtramck </span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">MI. The Challenge was to create Fictional Album Art, from the recording artist to songs, lyrics, your imagination has no limits!</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Public Pool will be transforming their gallery into the "Last Record Shop" </span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">sounds like a challenge I just had to try. I thought this would be a fun project!</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">It took a little more time then I had thought, but it was fun and so worth the challenge! </span></div>

Went back in with watercolor, and a crackle for an aged look. All of the detail is hand inked, front of the sleeve is all hand lettered.</span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">I haven't done a Art Challenge in a while. So when "Three Muses" posted a challenge for Positive Affirmations I had to add a journal page that I just finished! </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">I've been trying lately to use a lot of texture and brighter colors on my pages without losing that crackle aged effect. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Finished this journal page a couple of nights ago, for my oldest granddaughter, Emma Sophia. I took the photo of her walking in the yard blowing bubbles. When I pulled it up on the screen I had to use it in my art journal.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Lots of layering, and to give it extra dimension I used Liquitex Modeling Paste, acrylic paint and finally ink to make the images pop! Found the quote on Pintrest. It was perfect for a little girl with a big imagination! Nana loves you! Miss Emma </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">I have had so many requests for this positive quote on a little piece I created a few years ago. So I decided to do a few similar pieces that I could make prints of. Here is one I created on a 12x12 canvas. The vintage image of a silent screen star is one of my favorites, athough I can't remember her name. She is on a 4X6 piece of illustration board I added to give the piece depth. I also used a lot of different scrapbook papers, acrylic paint and ink. I just couldn't stop drawing lines:) I guess this quote is a little of ME!!!:) </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Art Journaling "Big Girl Style" I've decided that It's time for me to keep an art journal. My goal is to challenge myself to create and get new ideas on a regular basis, using quality products! That's why I'm calling this my "Big Girl Art Journal". An early Christmas Gift From Thom:) He has always been my biggest fan! Even if Art to him is just a guys name!</span></div>
