A fun opportunity to bring my art to a new community....

Picture

​Thanks to 1 Mas Cocina & Bar for inviting me to present my art this Thursday. Hope to see you there!

I started creating more sea glass Christmas trees as they went over well this past holiday season. If you wanted one at the beginning of the season and missed out stop by 1 Mas Cocina & Bar on Thursday. I have 3 prepared and ready to go.
​
​Not sure how many I'll be making this year so you might want to get one while you can.

Cats, dogs and birds....

Picture
​





Another creative afternoon making sea glass cards. Seems to be a lot of watching going on - dogs checking out the cats in the tree and the bird is eyeing the turtle trying to get to the ocean.

A fun variety of cards....

Picture







​I get great enjoyment creating cards with sea glass, twigs, bits of tile and other interesting objects I pick up on my beach walks.

Trying to create a better work station....

Picture

















​Creativity isn't always about art. Today I had to get creative and find a better way to work on my wind chimes. So I created this workstation. Now I'm ready to string the various seashells, seed pods and other bits and pieces I pick up on my beach walks. I even pick up discarded fishing line to use as my string.

​Super busy day. Sorted sea glass to create cards, added more to my sea glass Christmas trees, and perfectly cut 4 wine bottles in preparation for wind chimes. Busy busy busy.

Multi language cards....

Picture


​

Another beautiful hand drawn mandala over watercolor. Love this color combination. Someone had asked if I could do cards in both languages so I was happy to do that. Now I have some in both languages, some in English and some in Spanish so people have options.

It's time to start thinking about Christmas....

Picture









​And so it begins. I've decided it's time to start creating Christmas trees because each tree takes about 2 weeks to complete so if I start now I should have a very good selection of trees for next season. They went over so well this year I have to stock up. I'll be doing some sea glass cards as well since I'll have my sea glass spread out all over the place, I may as well multitask.

Having fun with some local school kids....

Picture




Spent the afternoon with some local children teaching them to make sea glass Valentine's day cards. They were very creative! Some of the cards were so awesome! They really got into the idea of coloring the glass before gluing it down. LOL I had to ask the teacher to ask them not to color all my glass, they were getting a little carried away.

    Who knew there was an artist lurking within? Certainly not me.

    It started with my Mom giving me some paints that she wasn’t using but I never did anything with them because “I wasn’t artistic” - according to myself. We really need to learn to have a kinder inner voice because I have discovered that apparently I am artistic.
     
    In early 2018 I was introduced to an artist on Instagram ​from Australia who makes the most beautiful art. I looked at it and was truly inspired. I thought how hard can it be to put dots on some rocks. I had never felt that I was artistic at all but this woman has changed me forever! So I began and since that time I have started following even more rock artists to inspire me.

    In late 2019 my sister in law introduced me to another Instagram person who creates coloring books. Drawing is another thing I said I could never do but thanks to the inspiration I am receiving from this woman and through various social media sources I have discovered that I actually can draw.
     
    So the lesson is....you never really know what you are capable of until you actually try it! Never say never, I can’t etc. to yourself. Obviously I have to change my words and thoughts from - "I'm not artistic" and "I can't draw" to.....
    ​"Cool something new! Let's give it a try and see where it goes!" And now when people ask me what I do I say - I am an Artist!
     
    I look forward to expanding my creativity. Thank you for your interest and support.
