Cloth Paper Scissors May/June Issue

The weather in Vermont has decided to go along with the fact that Spring might actually be here! It's an amazing blue sky day; daffodils are blooming, the birds are singing, peepers are peeping. To make it even more outstanding. I have just received my comp copy of this month's Cloth Paper Scissor Magazine. I've been waiting for this issue for a while. It contains my first published article. I am so excited about this opportunity and honored to be in a publication that has featured some of my favorite mixed media artists (and friends.) 

 

The article features my Bird House Shrines series and discusses my motivation and process behind making them. I am so please with the way the whole thing turned out, and the photography is just stunning.

The Soul House series stirred such a strong response in people that created a workshop on how to create your own bird house shrine. 

I'll be teaching this process later this summer in Wisconsin at Inspire My Life and in the Fall at Art-Is-You in Danbury, CT. The class sizes are limited so don't delay in registering.  I'm so excited to be able to reach out to a broader audience and talk about artistic potential and creative fearlessness! I can't wait to get back into the class room again. I hope to see you there!


So as the stream bubbles by, outside the screen porch where I sit, taking in the issue, my heart brims over with thanks to all the people who have helped me along the way. I can only bask in the serenity and joy of the moment for a brief time. My own creative fearlessness, is being tested tonight.  I'm wrapping up a new piece for a looming deadline. I thrive on meeting time lines, so I know it's going to be an all cylinders evening.

So friends, I must jet. Thanks for stopping by, be well, stay creative and fearless!

Soul House Class at Artists' Medium & Giveaway

I can't believe February is almost over. Here in Vermont, that means the days are a little longer, and the hardest part of the winter will soon be behind us. March will be here in a blink of an eye, and I will be at Artists' Medium teaching next weekend!

I've got a little cabin fever.  I am really looking forward to getting out, meeting some new students and teaching this class. Do you need to get out and stretch your wings, too? Need a little creativity and inspiration in your life? There's still a few spots available, I'd be thrilled to have you in the class!

The end of February also means that it's almost time for me to giveaway a little bird house shrine. I'm in the process of finishing it up. It needs to get it's little nest inside and some work to the front, but it's almost done.   

I wonder who will be the lucky winner? It could be you! The drawing will be on 2/28. If you haven't signed up yet, it's not too late. 

All you have to do is to make a post blog/website/FB page about the Soul House classes I'm teaching here in VT (and also in CT in the Fall)
 
Then add the link for my workshop page to your site.
